The 2025 MDAnalysis User Group Meeting wrapped up. If you want to see what great talks and workshops we had, have a look at the UGM2025 repo github.com/MDAnalysis/U... . It was fantastic to have so many of you in Arizona and joining online! See you all again soon.

Our MDAnalysis User Group Meeting 2025 is in full swing in sunny Arizona ! www.mdanalysis.org/pages/ugm2025/

We’ve updated the MDAnalysis Code of Conduct (CoC) by adopting the @numfocus.bsky.social CoC to support a more impartial and transparent process. Read more: 👉 www.mdanalysis.org/2025/11/07/N... Thanks to our community for helping us keep things respectful, inclusive, and welcoming. 🧡

It's ligand-focussed day at the #CCPBioSim training week, and we've been using @openforcefield.org & @openmm.org to parameterise and run protein-ligand MD, and @mdanalysis.bsky.social & ProLIF for analysis! #compchem

We're happy to announce the new 2.10.0 release of the MDAnalysis library www.mdanalysis.org/2025/10/26/r... It contains performance improvements, more parallel analysis tools, and the IMDv3 stream reader for directly processing running simulations. Thanks to 25 contributors, 16 of which were new!
