Re: [AMBER] NEB simulations: Inputs from TMD ?

Your plan sounds reasonable, depending on the structures that you obtained
from the TMD. Did you look at the outputs? Do you actually achieve low rmsd
at the end? That can be challenging. NEB depends strongly on the endpoint
structures, so if you feel those are good representation then go ahead with
NEB.
