Welcome From Chairs
Headquarters and Supporters
MOL2NET runs both online and/or in person workshops in host universities worldwide and at the SciForum platform maintained by the editorial MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. The Scientific Headquarters (HQs) of this conference series are in the Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Basque Country (UPV/EHU), Biscay. However, the idea of this multidisciplinary conference emerged from the melting pot formed as the result of multiple collaborations of professors from many centers worldwide. Locally, the founders and strongest supporters of the conference are professors endowed by IKERBASQUE, Basque Foundation for Sciences, professors from the two departments Department of Organic Chemistry I and Department of Organic Chemistry II of the University of Basque Country (UPV/EHU), and professors from the Department of Computer Sciences of the University of Coruña (UDC).
Internationally, professors from Dept of Biological Chemistry & Molecular Pharmacology (BCMP), Harvard Medical School, USA; the Center for the Study of Biological Complexity of the Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU), USA; the Natural Resources Research Institute, of the University of Minnesota, USA; CNRS-Université Paris-Sud, Paris, France, and other institutions are also founders and/or supporters of this conference, please see full committees lists [Honor Committee] [Co-Chairs Committee] [Scientific Committee (Abroad)] [Scientific Committee (Local)] and [MOL2NET-IKERBASQUE Staff].
Conference Lemma
The acronym MOL2NET summarizes the running title of this conference: FROM MOLECULES TO NETWORKS. This lemma is inspired by the possibility of spreading the knowledge about multiple topics by promoting multidisciplinary collaborations in science with conferences including topics ranging from quantum world to large social networks. In this sense, the spirit of this conference is in consonance with the lemma EMAN TA ZABAL ZAZU (Give and extend knowledge). This anthem from the 19th century is written in Basque language (Euskera) and is used now a days as the official motto of the University of Basque Country (UPV/EHU).
USEDAT Summer School
Contents Veracity & Authors Liability
MOL2NET conference is an online platform for early publication of preliminary results. In this sense, most of MOL2NET workshops do not preform peer-review of materials to be published by external referees. Consequently, the modality of publication is ore similar to a pre-print server where authors can post early versions of their results to obtain feedback from the community. In addition, authors can upload also short communications with post-publication discussion of results already published in other media. In all cases, the authors are personally responsible, to perform a similarity checking , ensure veracity of contents, and carry out a proper citation of previous works.
In concordance, the members of MOL2NET committee are not responsible of aspects like veracity, similarity, copyright, etc. in this publishing modality. Consequently, the opinions expressed on the communications are not necessarily coincident to the opinions of the members of the committees. In this sense, we strongly recommend the authors to use online text-similarity checking services, such as Turnitin, etc., if possible. These tools may help authors to avoid any form of plagiarism or copyright violation. The authors may be requested to modify the communication (re-write their texts) previous or posterior to publication in the case that high similarity, veracity, or other problems are detected and reported to the committee. In these cases, the manuscript could be put on standby or withdrawn temporarily until the authors re-submit the proper version. The authors are also allowed to submit short reviews, comments, letters, or discussions of papers already published if they guarantee sufficient difference to previous public contents.
Sessions & Workshops
You can participate both online or in person (face-to-face) in some of the workshops we organize in different universities worldwide (see sessions in the conference menu). Publication of all communications of the workshops will be online via the platform SciForum. We welcome proposals for organization of workshops in different universities. Please, do not hesitate to contact conference chairperson and/or scientific committee presidents. See also a list of workshops running this year.

Types of Communications
Before to submit your communication recommend to download and use the [Template File] to write your communication; we strongly recommend you to read carefully the following information about publication model, copyright, authors responsibilities, etcFirstly, be aware that the works published here belongs to two main modalities preliminary communications or comments on previous works.
Research Preprints. These are short communications of unpublished results but they are not post-print journal papers. In this sense, committee and/or external reviewers check only scope and apparent scientific soundness. They have the same editorial process than for an online Preprint service. Therefore, all works receive doi number and are indexed in databases (GoogleScholar, Publons, etc.).The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review). The authors are encouraged to submit their works to a peer-reviewed scientific journals of MDPI or other editorials during or after finalization of the conference, as per SciForum copyright rules.
Research Highlights. These short communications are comments on already published papers. They are short notes to comment about the more interesting points, highlights, etc. of works previously published by the authors or other groups. In this case, committee and/or external reviewers check also only scope and apparent scientific soundness. The works may receive also comments from registered participants (public post-publication review).
Authors Liability
In all cases, it is responsibility of authors, to perform a similarity checking , ensure veracity of contents, and carry out a proper citation of previous works. The committee is not responsible of the previous aspects in this publishing modality. Consequently, the opinions expressed on the communications are not necessarily coincident to the opinions of the members of the committees. In this sense, we strongly recommend the authors to use online text-similarity checking services, such as Turnitin, etc., if possible.
