    8989Re NIH3D pipeline:
     
    9696
    9797Phil: plans to incorporate AlphaFold3?  TomG: their website only allows limited calculations and there is no API for programmatic access. However, can upload a json to set up a run on their server.  So one potential thing ChimeraX could do is generate that json file, but it may be difficult especially for ligands, and not worth it with the current restrictions on what calculations can be done.  So I'm inclined to wait and hope that a less restrictive version becomes available.  Phil: I miss the interactive PAE.  TomG: currently (v1.8+) you can download the results and then open the AlphaFold3 PAE data and structure in ChimeraX. Phil: OK, then I'm satisfied!

     99Scooter: re Schol-AR, we met with Tyler and got feedback.  Next step is to put a "beta" bundle in the Toolshed and get some more testing. Elaine: yes please use, you (Kristen and Phil) are more qualified than I to test this feature.

     101Scooter: we have the raytracing lighting for volumes now, take a look.  Elaine: see the Medical Image tab of the toolbar, icon looks like a 3D pac-man.
     102
     103Greg: I've added dark mode support.  Elaine: the User Guide pages also support this.
     104
     105Darrell: did 2nd-half-of-year funding go through yet?  Scooter: still in progress, on my to-do list.  Want to get it done without a gap, so it's urgent (possibly later today). Have been busy with hardware upgrades.   Darrell: saw on "X" the new chimeraX raycasting and worms representation, look good. Unfortunately, our budget going forward will be flat, need to keep spending no higher next year than this year, may need to reduce hours in the next contract.
     106
     107Scooter: green light from UCSF for setting up endowment for Tom Ferrin's position. Position will be open soon, we want to inform relevant parties and start getting interest.
     108
     109Darrell: we would like to visit you, should start planning soon.  Would like to bring Neta Filip-Granite (cryoEM expert). Scooter: maybe Jan/Feb.  Kristen: hopefully I won't be snowed in.  Scooter: maybe we can do some kind of seminar concurrently.
