Foldingathome
[Folding@home] is a distributed computing project for simulating protein dynamics, including the process of protein folding and the movements of proteins implicated in a variety of diseases. It brings together citizen scientists who volunteer to run simulations of protein dynamics on their personal computers. Insights from this data are helping scientists to better understand biology, and providing new opportunities for developing therapeutics.
About
Folding@home is a distributed computing platform that runs protein folding simulations on volunteers' hardware to advance medical research. It's designed for citizen scientists, researchers, and anyone wanting to contribute idle computational resources to help understand diseases…
