A structural pharmacology workbench for cognition-related CNS targets, built so that a displayed number must trace to a computation. Runs Boltz-2 locally for structure prediction, validates chemistry with RDKit, enforces a provenance record on every value, and reports eight studies pre-registered under content hashes before any data was seen. Its headline result is negative: designed peptides did not separate from composition-matched shuffles of their own amino acids.

Converts Protein Data Bank structures into 3D-printable models. Each polymer chain is meshed separately and written as a named object in a single 3MF file, so a multi-material printer can assign one filament per chain. Protein chains can be rendered as a solvent-excluded surface, a cartoon, or a backbone tube; nucleic acids as a tube-and-rung form with the strands of a duplex welded at every base pair. Press-fit magnet pockets are optionally placed at chain interfaces, so a complex comes apart where its subunits actually meet. All meshes are checked for watertightness before export.
