Understanding how a ligand interacts with a receptor at the molecular level is vital in structure-based drug design. After running docking simulations, it’s often difficult to visualize results effectively, especially in complex molecular systems with multiple atoms and chains. If…

If you’re a molecular modeler using GROMACS for simulations, you probably know how important reproducibility and computational optimization can be. While SAMSON’s GROMACS Wizard comes bundled with a recent GROMACS version ready for cloud and local jobs, there are cases…

Designing polymers with specific properties often requires assembling them from custom monomers rather than relying on predefined sets. Whether you’re exploring new biopolymers, studying conjugated systems, or building molecular scaffolds for simulation, the ability to define and reuse your own…

Molecular modeling platforms can be powerful and flexible, but many suffer from a common drawback: it’s hard to customize their functionality without digging through forums or manually managing plug-ins. With SAMSON and its modular extension system, users can smoothly fine-tune…

For molecular modelers creating animations of dynamic systems, crafting smooth transitions between molecular conformations can be both a creative challenge and a technical hurdle. Whether you’re building an educational presentation or illustrating molecular events for a publication, precisely positioning atoms…

Presenting molecular transitions in a visual and understandable way is one of the common challenges molecular modelers face, especially during presentations or when generating animations for educational and research purposes. Complex structures often clutter the screen, making it hard to…

When visualizing complex molecular systems in 3D, capturing depth and spatial relationships clearly is often a challenge. Have you ever looked at your protein or material structure and felt it looked flat or lacked realistic depth perception? If so, you’re…

Working on molecular models often involves teams of researchers, spread across institutions and time zones. Sharing progress, simulations, and models efficiently — without versioning headaches or manual file exchanges — can be a challenge. This is where Shared Documents on…
