When you’re working with molecular design tools, one of the most frequent and sometimes frustrating tasks is setting up your initial molecule just to start with a new technique or analysis. Whether you’re exploring new analogs or experimenting with substitutions,…

For molecular modelers juggling complex systems and workflows, having a workspace that truly supports your thinking is more than a convenience — it’s a necessity. SAMSON, the integrative molecular design platform, offers a powerful solution: a fully customizable interface that…

When preparing animations for molecular presentations, clarity of motion and point of view are crucial. Whether you’re highlighting structural changes in a protein or showing a drug docking process, a smooth, coherent camera move can make all the difference. If…

One common hurdle for molecular modelers—especially those new to a platform—is the steep learning curve when trying to understand software workflows. Even experienced users may occasionally find it time-consuming to recall how to set up a particular simulation or visualization.…

When it comes to molecular simulations, force fields are essential: they help define how atoms interact and how the system behaves. The Universal Force Field (UFF) is popular for its ability to support a broad range of elements. But molecular…

When working with complex molecular systems, switching efficiently between different areas of interest is crucial. Whether you’re analyzing binding sites, separating receptor and ligand views, or toggling between multiple regions during a design session, spending time reselecting elements can quickly…

Setting up and running molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with GROMACS can be demanding in terms of both time and computational resources. If you’re working with large systems, using a laptop or a local workstation might not be efficient enough. Fortunately,…
