The time-consuming scientific research behind drug discovery can now be accelerated with the launch of AMBER 11, a software tool that enables bio-scientists to harness the power of supercomputing on their desktop PC.

AMBER 11, the latest version of one of the most widely used applications for biochemists and others involved in molecular dynamics research, is optimized to run on NVIDIA® graphics processing units (GPUs), which speed up the tool by up to 100-fold over a traditional CPU -based server. GPUs deliver performance from a desktop workstation that previously could only be achieved on a supercomputer, improving productivity as scientists no longer need to wait for time on a shared supercomputer or departmental cluster of servers.
