Overview of Targeted Molecular Dynamics (TMD) Simulation

Targeted Molecular Dynamics (TMD) simulation is a powerful computational approach used to study and predict the dynamic behavior of molecular systems. Unlike traditional molecular dynamics simulations, TMD allows researchers to apply external forces to specific parts of a system, guiding the simulation towards predefined structural changes. By targeting specific regions or interactions within a molecule, TMD enables a more focused exploration of conformational changes, binding events, and other dynamic processes critical to understanding molecular behavior.
