The development of a dyadic family life review intervention for the Asian diaspora: A practice article.

Intergenerational family conflict is a commonly identified issue in the Asian diaspora; however, there are limited interventions designed to address this concern. Given this gap in the literature, the authors present a practice article outlining the conceptualization, development, and delivery of a dyadic life review intervention called (Re)Cultivating Family Stories (RFS). RFS is a clinician-facilitated family intervention designed to promote connection and foster successive communication through the joint activity of developing a family story.

Benchmarking Quantum Mechanical Levels of Theory for Valence Parametrization in Force Fields.

A wide range of density functional methods and basis sets are available to derive the electronic structure and properties of molecules. Quantum mechanical calculations are too computationally intensive for routine simulation of molecules in the condensed phase, prompting the development of computationally efficient force fields based on quantum mechanical data. Parametrizing general force fields, which cover a vast chemical space, necessitates the generation of sizable quantum mechanical data sets with optimized geometries and torsion scans.

STORMM: Structure and topology replica molecular mechanics for chemical simulations.

The Structure and TOpology Replica Molecular Mechanics (STORMM) code is a next-generation molecular simulation engine and associated libraries optimized for performance on fast, vectorized central processor units and graphics processing units (GPUs) with independent memory and tens of thousands of threads. STORMM is built to run thousands of independent molecular mechanical calculations on a single GPU with novel implementations that tune numerical precision, mathematical operations, and scarce on-chip memory resources to optimize throughput. The libraries are built around accessible classes with detailed documentation, supporting fine-grained parallelism and algorithm development as well as copying or swapping groups of systems on and off of the GPU.

Tuning Potential Functions to Host-Guest Binding Data.

Software to more rapidly and accurately predict protein-ligand binding affinities is of high interest for early-stage drug discovery, and physics-based methods are among the most widely used technologies for this purpose. The accuracy of these methods depends critically on the accuracy of the potential functions that they use. Potential functions are typically trained against a combination of quantum chemical and experimental data.
