Two Sessions: May 21-24, 1996 and August 20-23, 1996

Laboratory for Molecular Graphics and Theoretical Modeling
College of Pharmacy, University of Texas at Austin

Eleven previous four-day "hands-on" short courses have been offered with over 
275 registrants from diverse backgrounds in the chemical, biological, and 
biomedical fields of research and teaching.

Each student will have their own Silicon Graphics workstation and access to 
desktop computers for the duration of the short course. There will be daily 
"hands-on" laboratory sessions so YOU can work with state-of-the-art hardware 
and software. 

Topics: Molecular Mechanics Calculations, Molecular Mechanics Parameterization, 
Quantum Mechanics Calculations, Conformational Searching, Drug Design, 
Pharmacophore Development, 3D Databases, 3D Searching Strategies, and 
Combinatorial Chemistry Concepts

Who Should Attend?
Anyone wanting to know more about molecular structure calculations, 
pharmacophore design, 3D database searching, and structure-function 
relationships.  The course has been designed primarily for experimental 
scientists in industry or academics with a background in the chemical, 
biological, and/or biomedical sciences. 

Software: MM2/MM3, SYBYL, INSIGHT/DISCOVER, QUANTA/CHARMm, SPARTAN, ISIS, 
CONCORD, CAChe, and more

Dear CCLers

Is there a molecular dynamics package which uses Nose-Huber mechanics to
calculate the time evolution of the system?

Thank you very much

    The dipole moment is just one term in a multipolar expansion of the 
electric  charge density of the molecules. All this expansion must be done 
with the same center. If it is the first non-vanishing term, its value is 
origin-independent, and we can use what origin we want, BUT the remaining 
terms in the multipolar expansion change their values with our choice for 
this origin. 
    The dipole-charge energy will have a different value, BUT ONLY the 
complete expansion will converge to the same energy whatever the origin we 
consider. That means that the quadrupolar term may became important. The 
same problem arrives if we compute charge-charge energies. 
    The center of mass or the center of charge are the most common used 
centers.

The center of charge will give the fastest convergence of the
multipole expansion. To get the largest region of convergence, choose
the origin to minimize the largest distance of any charge (keep in
mind that a multipole expansion converges only inside a sphere
containing all the charges). The center of mass has of course
nothing to do with charges or multipoles, but it is often a
convenient choice for other reasons.

Dear Netters,

I got several replies to my question about 
"looking for a Mac version of VersaTermPRO program". 
Many thanks. 

Here is a brief summary:
