| Re: GC Folding@Home Team (Awesome!) welcome to the partyyyy can you give us your F@H name ![]() BTW HERE'S SOME INFO ABOUT F@H: What is protein folding and how is folding linked to disease? [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] are biology's workhorses -- its "[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]." Before proteins can carry out these important functions, they assemble themselves, or "[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]." The process of protein folding, while critical and fundamental to virtually all of biology, in many ways remains a mystery. Moreover, when proteins do not fold correctly (i.e. "misfold"), there can be serious consequences, including many well known [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], such as [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] disease, and many [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and cancer-related syndromes. You can help by simply running a piece of software. Folding@Home is a distributed computing project -- people from through out the world [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and run software to band together to make one of the largest supercomputers in the world. Every computer makes the project closer to our goals. Folding@Home uses novel computational methods coupled to distributed computing, to simulate problems thousands to millions of times more challenging than previously achieved. What have we done so far? We have had several successes. You can read about them on our [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], or go directly to our [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. Want to learn more? Click on the links on the left for downloads or more information. You can also download our [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], which is a PDF suitable for distribution. Also, you can learn more by watching recent seminars ([Only registered and activated users can see links. ] ; [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]). One can also help by [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]to the project, via Stanford University. INFO SOURCE COPPIED FROM F@H HOME PAGE ![]()
