In light of recent discussions within the Folding@home community concerning our relationship to cryptocurrencies, we would like to take this opportunity to make an official statement.  Folding@home does not endorse…

I want to thank Prof. Pande for his leadership and generous support of his trainees over the past 20 years. During that time, Folding@home has served as a unique scientific…

Rational drug design efforts typically focus on identifying inhibitors that bind to protein active sites. Pockets that are not present in crystallographic structures yet can exert allosteric (i.e., long-range) control…

Now we have over 1 millisecond of data for rhodopsin, a key signaling protein in vision.  In the new year, we will be running more simulations to get better statistics…

About four months ago, we started a new set of projects to understand the dynamics of some of the key proteins involved in vision.  Now, we have about 600 microseconds…

We (the Bowman lab) have completed our move to Washington University in St Louis and have our new servers up and running.  While our primary server won’t be replacing Folding@home…

I’ve been an independent researcher at UC Berkeley for the past three years and have now accepted an Assistant Professorship at Washington University in St Louis.  I’ll start the process…

The Bowman lab is beginning a new effort to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying vision and the origins of inherited forms of blindness.  As a starting point, we’ve launched some…

Many biologically relevant conformational changes occur on milliseconds and slower timescales.  Furthermore, many experimental techniques are only sensitive to milliseconds and slower timescales.  Therefore, our ability to reliably capture millisecond…

As part of Folding@home, you know that proteins change their structures (e.g. transitioning from unfolded to folded conformations).  Once a protein is folded, it is very common to think of…
