UCSF Chimera Molecular Dynamics: CPU vs GPU
by Alan Carbajo 07 May '23

07 May '23

Good morning, I'm running a molecular dynamics simulation in Chimera, and it seems that the program is only using my cpu for the calculations. Why is this? Is it possible to switch it to use my GPU? Thank you, Alan

Web site downtime

Hi all, Due to a scheduled power outage at UCSF followed by server upgrades, the Chimera website and web services will be unavailable from Tuesday May 16 through most of Wednesday May 17. This upgrade will remove the Opal web services used by older versions of Chimera. Therefore, to continue using the Chimera tools running BLAST protein, Modeller comparative and loop modeling, and multiple sequence alignment with Clustal Omega and MUSCLE web services, you will need to upgrade to Chimera 1.17 (Mac) and 1.17.1 (Windows/Linux). Please pardon any inconvenience. --Eric Eric Pettersen UCSF Computer Graphics Lab

Hello. I'm looking to use chimera on iPads to introduce High School and Middle School students to structural biology. Do you offer a discount for education licenses? Can Chimera be used on an ipad, even if not to its full capacity? Kind regards, Hazel C.
