Description

Abstract
Openmm [http://openmm.ORG] is the most widely-used open source GPU-accelerated framework for biomolecular modeling and simulation (>1300 citations, >270,000 downloads, >1M deployed instances). Its python API makes IT widely popular as both an application (for modelers) and a library (for developers), while its c/c++/fortran bindings enable major legacy simulation packages to use openmm to provide high performance on modern hardware. Openmm has been used for probing biological questions that leverage the $14B global investment in structural data from the PDB at multiple scales, from detailed studies of single disease proteins to superfamily-wide modeling studies and large-scale drug development efforts in industry and academia. Originally developed with NIH funding by the pande lab at stanford, we aim to fully transition toward a community governance and sustainable development model and extend its capabilities to ensure openmm can power the next decade of biomolecular research. To fully exploit the revolution in QM-level accuracy with machine-learning (ML) potentials, we will add plug-in support for ML models augmented by GPU-accelerated kernels, enabling transformative science with QM-level accuracy. To enable high-productivity development of new ML models with training dataset sizes approaching 100 million molecules, we will develop a python framework to enable openmm to be easily used within modern ML frameworks such as tensorflow and pytorch. Together with continued optimizations to exploit inexpensive gpus, these advances will power a transformation within biomolecular modeling and simulation, much as deep learning has transformed computer vision.
