Chiralpedia is a passion-driven initiative dedicated to demystifying chiral science - the fascinating world of molecular asymmetry and its profound impact on chemistry, biology, pharmaceuticals, and beyond free from commercial influence or institutional bias. Our goal is to make this complex field accessible, engaging, and universally understandable, empowering students, researchers, and curious minds alike.
To become the global compass for chiral science, where curiosity and innovation converge. We envision a world where:
Chirality shapes life at the molecular level-from the twist of DNA to everything from the effectiveness of life-saving drugs to the flavors in your food. Yet, its complexity often intimidates newcomers. Through clear explanations, real-world examples, and interdisciplinary perspectives, we bridge the gap between specialized research and public understanding.
Founded by Valliappan Kannappan, a chiral chemistry enthusiast, Chiralpedia operates as an independent, non-commercial dynamic resource - free from external funding, sponsorships, or institutional bias. We believe science should be open, collaborative, and driven by curiosity, not profit.
