ABSTRACT
Motivated by the current COVID-19 pandemic, which has spurred a substantial flow of structural data, the use of molecular-visualization experiences to make these data sets accessible to a broad audience is described. Using a variety of technology vectors related to the cloud, 3D and virtual reality gear, how to share curated visualizations of structural biology, modeling and/or bioinformatics data sets for interactive and collaborative exploration is examined. FAIR is discussed as an overarching principle for sharing such visualizations. Four initial example scenes related to recent COVID-19 structural data are provided, together with a ready-to-use (and share) implementation in the UnityMol software.
