If you’re a molecular modeler relying on specific SAMSON Extensions, computational workflows, or research reproducibility, you might find yourself needing to install an older version of SAMSON — the integrative molecular design platform. Developers often update Extensions for the latest…

Molecular modelers often find themselves juggling several pieces of software to complete a workflow—from docking and energy minimization to structural analysis. This switching can disrupt focus, increase the potential for user error, and reduce productivity. This is where SAMSON Apps…

When telling the story of a molecular system—whether for scientific communication, education, or personal insight—how you move the camera is often just as important as what you’re showing. If you’ve ever felt limited by static views or cumbersome setups when…

When working on complex molecular modeling projects, collaboration is often essential—but keeping things organized can be a real challenge. Instead of digging through email threads or trying to manage shared folders across different platforms, SAMSON Connect offers a much more…

Creating realistic models of complex nanostructures, such as multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), can be a time-consuming challenge for molecular modelers. Whether you’re exploring molecular transport, testing drug delivery systems, or simulating electronic properties, manually building these nanotubes atom-by-atom is impractical.…

When working with large biological complexes like viral capsids or multimeric proteins, symmetry can be both a powerful advantage and a subtle challenge. Detecting symmetry accelerates simulation workflows, but modelers often face an important decision after automatic detection: which symmetry…

When you’re preparing animations of molecular systems, visual flow matters. Maybe you’re showcasing an assembly of biomolecules or walking your collaborators through a long supramolecular structure. In these cases, moving the viewpoint smoothly along your structure — not around it…
