Yet Another Scientific Artificial Reality Application (YASARA) is a computer program for molecular visualising, modelling, and dynamics. It has many scientific uses, as expressed by the large number of scientific articles mentioning the software.[1] The free version of YASARA[2] is well suited to bioinformatics education. A series of freely available bioinformatics courses exist that use this software.

Students working on an educational task using YASARA.

See the Center for Molecular and Biomolecular Informatics (CMBI) education pages for a series of examples.[3]
