'''Yet Another Scientific Artificial Reality Application''' ('''YASARA''') is a [computer program](/source/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.<ref>[http://www.yasara.org/papers.htm YASARA scientific papers]</ref> The free version of YASARA<ref>[http://www.yasara.org/viewdl/ YASARA-View]</ref> is well suited to bioinformatics education. A series of freely available bioinformatics courses exist that use this software. thumb|Students working on an educational task using YASARA.|300px See the [Center for Molecular and Biomolecular Informatics](/source/Center_for_Molecular_and_Biomolecular_Informatics) (CMBI) education pages for a series of examples.<ref>[http://swift.cmbi.ru.nl/teach/ CMBI education pages]{{Dead link|date=December 2025 |bot=InternetArchiveBot }}</ref>
