Amber

  • the collective name for a suite of programs that allows users to carry out molecular dynamics simulations, particularly on biomolecules.

Amber was originally developed under the leadership of Peter Kollman. Current development stems from an active collaboration between David Case (Rutgers U), Tom Cheatham (U of Utah), Tom Darden (NIEHS, OpenEye, Ken Merz and Adrian Roitberg (Florida), Carlos Simmerling (SUNY-Stony Brook), Ray Luo (UC Irvine), Junmei Wang (UT Southwestern), and many others.
