| 458 | Phil is working (using Chimera) on 3D print of omicron variant spike for VRC. Icosahedrons show glycosylation sites. May need "ribbackbone" command. Looked into ChimeraX tube helices, but connections to coil look fragile. This 3D print will need lots of bracing. |

| 460 | Phil demo'd ChimeraX at a meeting with Jeremy Swanson and some other NIH people interested in VR & related, would TomG be willing to give them a VR demo in January? Will contact TG later with details. |

| 462 | Is unable to save Chimera session, problem with surface gneration. Maybe something to do with the struts? Elaine: or radius changes? Phil: changed radii back to default and still had the problem. Elaine: maybe try export to ChimeraX and switch over, and then regenerate icosahedrons. TomG: shape icosahedron command is same between Chimera and ChimeraX. |

| 464 | Eric has added ChimeraX ability to change radii relative to current values. |

| 466 | Phil: Chimera surface failure is disadvantage, but advantages are split/copy/combine/join, rename chains tool, etc. ChimeraX may do some via commands but harder to find. |
