For academics, researchers, and students working in molecular modeling, every resource counts. The SAMSON integrative molecular design platform offers a dedicated academic status with significant perks, aimed at making advanced modeling and computational tools accessible for educational and research contexts. Let’s explore how to obtain this academic status and what it brings to users.
Why Should Academics Consider SAMSON’s Academic Status?
Academic status provides highly valuable benefits for users within educational or research settings. Here’s what you gain:
- Free access to specific SAMSON Extensions that enrich functionalities—like analysis tools, modeling apps, and more.
- Up to 90% discounts on non-free SAMSON Extensions, dramatically reducing costs for premium features that might be critical for advanced projects.
It’s an excellent opportunity to enhance your molecular modeling toolkit, especially if you’re working on tight budgets or funded academic projects.
How to Obtain Academic Status
Securing academic status is a straightforward process, but there are a few details to ensure eligibility:
- Register with your institutional email address: This is a key step, as the system checks for academic domains to verify eligibility.
- Wait for approval: After registering with an academic email address, SAMSON’s team typically processes applications within 1–2 working days.
- Contact for exceptions: If you’re a student or academic without an institutional email address, or if you haven’t received approval after two days, simply contact the SAMSON team for assistance.
Note: If you ever decide to change your registered email, keep in mind that you’ll need to reinstall SAMSON with the new credentials to maintain proper functionality.
Streamlined Academic Collaboration
SAMSON empowers scientific discovery, education, and collaborations on molecular systems through affordability and accessibility for academicians worldwide. Moreover, by registering for academic status, educators and researchers can imminently explore, analyze, and simulate molecules without financial constraints holding them back.
