- 2018: Analysis and presentation of structure and function of the K-RAS protein was the end-of-degree project of Carlos Vázquez-García, a student of the Degree in Pharmacy at the University of Alcalá (Spain), focused of the analysis and display of structural features of the protein, interaction with ligands, etc. (Article in Spanish, includes English abstract. Published also as http://hdl.handle.net/10017/27238)
- 2018: Analysis and presentation of structure and function of the HIV gp120 protein was the end-of-degree project of Carolina Castro-Hernández, a student of the Degree in Biology at the University of Alcalá (Spain), focused of the analysis and display of structural features of the protein, interaction with other proteins and ligands, etc. (Article in Spanish, includes English abstract)

Pages that are collaborations between students at La Cañada High School and students at the University of Southern California, mentored by Remo Rohs, were published in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education:

- 2010: Daniel Eddelman while a senior at Wabash College, majoring in Biology and minoring in Chemistry, developed a page on Citrate Synthase that was published to the public space as part of his class. This formed the foundation for the current topic page and lead to his inclusion in publication of this work in 2011. Other student projects from the class are linked at Glycolysis_Enzymes and Citric Acid Cycle.
- 2009: Understanding of the Recruitment of HDACs by MEF2, Based on Their Structure was authored by graduate student Ricardo Alchini as a result of participation in a class taught by Eric Martz and Keiichi Namba in Osaka, Japan.
- 2008: Photosystem II was authored by Emily Forschler while she was a senior biochemistry major at Messiah College (Grantham PA US) in a class taught by Karl Oberholser. Professor Oberholser reported "I think that Emily's work on Photosystem II shows that Proteopedia is a system that a Jmol novice can use with good effect. Emily had no experience with using Jmol. The other students in the class ... [made] PowerPoint presentations of their chosen proteins, and after seeing Emily's Proteopedia presentation one student's response was all of us should have used Proteopedia. Thank you for a great product!"

Dozens of pages created by graduate students in the Chemistry-Biology Interface (CBI) Program the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, designed for incorporation into the Molecular Playground, are listed under CBI Molecules.

Artistic representations of biochemical subjects will be found under Art. Many of these are by students.
