We present recent results on the validations and applications of the SIBFA polarizable molecular mechanics/dynamics procedure [1]. We focus on the issues of separability, non-isotropy and non-additivity. Two very recent validation examples are then presented: the channeling of alkali cations across two stacked guanine tetramers [2], and ligand binding to the di-zinc recognition site of Zn-dependent metalloenzymes [3]. Perspectives on extensions on a very large scale will be considered.
