SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein Simulation

Caption

Emad Tajkhorshid uses molecular dynamics to track how viruses change over time and space. The work relies on NAMD, an open-source software package developed at the university’s NIH Center for Macromolecular Modeling and Visualization, harnessing massively parallel simulations of complex biological systems.
