Hi Jacopo, Thanks for your interest in Chimera! However, I thought I should mention a couple of things in case you didn't already know: (1) We are not actively developing Chimera any more; instead work is now on ChimeraX (2) Chimera (and ChimeraX) do not do molecular docking, except that Chimera has an interface that can run Autodock Vina if you get it separately and install it on your computer yourself. They do have tools for helping the user before the docking (Chimera Dock Prep) and for looking at docking results, i.e. the molecular poses in files output from other programs (Chimera ViewDock and ChimeraX ViewDockX). If you are writing extensions for Chimera it may be possible to give advice occasionally, but large contributions of time may not be feasible since we are not funded for Chimera projects. I'm not in charge of the programmers, however, so this is just my best guess of the situation. If others on the team want to add any comments, they should. Best regards and thanks for your interest, Elaine ----- Elaine C. Meng, Ph.D. UCSF Chimera(X) team Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry University of California, San Francisco

Hello,
We are two post-graduate students of the University of Bologna in the department of chemistry. We are working in CADD field and we have written some tools which help the user before and after the molecular docking.
We would like to know if it is possible to collaborate with you on this project.
Thanks in advance for your time,
J.C.
