Description

Molecular Dynamics and analysis can be complicated for novitiates and researchers from neighbouring disciplines. Building upon the Galaxy Project platform, BRIDGE (Biomolecular Reaction & Interaction Dynamics Global Environment) is a web application that provides the ability to get started running molecular dynamics and analyses using curated workflows.

Target Audience: Are you keen to learn how to run a protein simulation using Molecular Dynamics?Computational chemists, biologists, protein scientists, crystallographers and anyone interested in running and analysing molecular dynamics simulations who is not familiar with the command line.

Prerequisites: Basic understanding of chemistry. A basic understanding of or keen interest in molecular dynamics.

Special requirements: Bring a laptop. Have access to the CHPC cluster. Register with BRIDGE. Install molecular viewer e.g. VMD.
