[https://ambermd.org/ Amber] is the collective name for a suite of programs that allow users to perform molecular dynamics simulations, particularly on biomolecules. None of the individual programs carry this name, but the various parts work reasonably well together, and provide a powerful framework for many common calculations. | [https://ambermd.org/ Amber] is the collective name for a suite of programs that allow users to perform molecular dynamics simulations, particularly on biomolecules.

== Amber vs. AmberTools == | |||
We have modules for both Amber and AmberTools [[Available software|available in our software stack]]. | |||
* The [https://ambermd.org/AmberTools.php AmberTools] (module <code>ambertools</code>) contain a number of tools for preparing and analysing simulations, as well as <code>sander</code> to perform molecular dynamics simulations, all of which are free and open source. | |||
* [https://ambermd.org/AmberMD.php Amber] (module <code>amber</code>) contains everything that is included in <code>ambertools</code>, but adds the advanced <code>pmemd</code> program for molecular dynamics simulations. | |||
To see a list of installed versions and which other modules they depend on, you can use the [[Using modules#Sub-command_spider|<code>module spider</code>]] command or check the [[Available software]] page. | |||
