Abstract: Visual Molecular Dynamics (VMD) is a dedicated tool for visualizing, analyzing, and animating molecular structures such as proteins, nucleic acids, and membranes, that is often used to post-process molecular dynamics simulations. In this hands-on workshop, attendees will learn to navigate the VMD interface, apply diverse molecular representations, and utilize VMD's selection language to isolate key residues or ligands. The session will also cover loading molecular dynamics trajectories and generating high-quality renderings suitable for publication. By the end of this workshop, participants will have the fundamental skills to transform raw atomic data into meaningful visual insights.
