Re: metadynamics run in NAMD or using plumed in NAMD

Thank you so much for your information.
 I am wondering if I can run bias-exchange metadynamics on NAMD with
colvar module as I have found the tutorial for plain metadynamics and
well-tempered metadynamics on NAMD tutorial. For your kind information, I
am trying to find the binding site between a protein and ligand.
And also I am wondering if there is any program to analyze metadynamics
result. I have found one program named META-GUI for analyzing metadynamics
results. But it is based on the output format of plumed. So I am not sure
if I can analyze the metadynamics results from NAMD with its colvar module
over there.

Thanks again.
