For molecular modelers, exploring the chemical space of potential drug candidates or functional materials efficiently is a common challenge. Positional Analogue Scanning (PAS), a method for generating families of molecular analogues by modifying specific parts of a structure, can be…

When preparing molecular simulations, one of the major challenges is cleaning up a structure to ensure everything runs smoothly. Issues like unwanted water molecules, alternate atomic locations, or unnecessary ions can derail your workflow if left unaddressed. This is where…

For molecular modelers, achieving accurate atomic behaviors and understanding molecular dynamics can be a challenge. Interactive simulations provide a way to experiment and control simulations while maintaining flexibility, and SAMSON offers powerful tools to implement this effectively. This blog post…

For molecular modelers, achieving clarity and precision in visualizing complex structures can be a challenge. The default color palettes in SAMSON provide an excellent starting point, but what if you could go beyond default settings and fully customize your visualization…

Creating animations can greatly enhance molecular modeling workflows, making complex presentations and analyses more effective. Animations allow modelers to visualize molecular processes dynamically, communicate results more vividly, and even generate instructional materials for teaching and knowledge sharing. SAMSON offers an…

One of the recurring challenges for molecular modelers is efficiently juggling multiple selections in a complex molecular system. Have you ever wished for a quick way to toggle, save, and revisit specific selections during a workflow? SAMSON’s Quick Groups feature…

Molecular modeling can be challenging, especially when working on complex projects with multiple steps and adjustments. Have you ever wished you could easily backtrack or revisit prior states of your model without losing all progress? SAMSON’s history features, including Undo…

Are you working in molecular design or computational materials science and struggling to construct precise carbon nanotube (CNT) models for your simulations? If you need to build single-walled or multi-walled CNTs tailored to specific applications, you’ll be excited to learn…

Molecular modelers often face unique challenges requiring specific software versions. Sometimes, the latest version of a platform might not yet support certain workflows or extensions, making access to older versions essential. Fortunately, SAMSON allows users to easily install older versions…
