Training

Training at the TCBG
The Resource recognizes the vital importance of training for the education and professional growth of scientists. With so many techniques and technologies, researchers must continue to learn new and better ways of completing research, and should always be on the lookout for new tools to use, and new ways to use existing tools. In the sections below, we strive to provide a collection of tutorials and training methods to help scientists better utilize their talents, so that they may continue to advance their research. This section offers demos and tutorials on tools created by Resource members, and on techniques to assist the use of those tools. The links on this page lead to local as well as third-party training resources.

 Spotlight
Simulation of Water Permeation through Nanotubes Tutorial. In this tutorial, participants will be investigating the permeation of water through nanotubes, as a model for transmembrane permeation of substrates through channels. Participants will observe water movement through an array of nanotubes under two types of simulation conditions, namely, free water diffusion in equilibrium and directional water flow under a hydrostatic pressure difference. Next, participants are taught how to 'decorate' nanotubes using AutoIMD, by modifying and experimenting with charge and charge configurations, and by modifying and experimenting with VdW parameters.
