• Chemistry 4000 Course at the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, University of Lethbridge (Canada).

Workshops that used Gepasi:

• Modeling Workshop at the 2000 Biothermokinetics meeting in Stellenbosh, South Africa
• The CTI Centre for Biology organised a workshop entitled: Computer-Based Resources for Teaching Metabolism and Kinetics Workshop on the 8th January 1999. Gepasi was demonstrated there for its use in education. They also have an online review.
• The Biochemical Society Meeting on "Modelling Metabolism", University of Leicester - 21-23 September 1998, had a session on "Teaching for understanding - concepts not pathways". In this session Gepasi was used as an example of the application of computer simulation of metabolism in education. The proceedings of this meeting were published in the Biochemical Society magazine The Biochemist and you can download the relevant paper from here (PDF 244kb, requires Adobe Acrobat) - mounted on the Internet with kind permission from the Biochemical Society (1999).

Opinions:

• The simulations were well received, and we will continue to use your excellent program in the future. - Peter Stilbs, Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm.
• We are enjoying working with Gepasi - Joe Andrade, University of Utah.
