Guest post from Dr. Vincent Voelz, Temple University Using protein folding simulations alongside experiments remains challenging because the two techniques often "see" very different things. Simulation trajectories "see" every atom…

Guest post from Dr. John Chodera, UC BerkeleyKinases [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinase] are the molecular logic gates of the cell.  These important proteins integrate critical signaling information in every cell of our bodies,…

Guest post: Dr. Greg Bowman, UC Berkeley We just had a protein folding conference at Stony Brook University in New York that was extremely encouraging.  Both the experimental and theoretical…

To start off FAHcon2012, I gave a talk which included a review of how far Folding@home has come in the last decade.  I showed a slide from the very first…

Here's a guest post from Prof. Dr. Xuhui Huang, from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.   I had a great time attending the first annual FAH conference and…

Dr. Snow, a new investigator at Colorado State University, gave a presentation focused on upcoming research. A unifying theme of this research is the engineering of new, synthetic proteins with applications in…

Here's a guest post from Prof. Dr. Michael Shirts (University of Virginia). The open source Gromacs molecular simulation engine has been one of the main simulation tools in Folding@Home for almost a…

Here's a guest post from Prof. Dr. Peter Kasson (University of Virginia). FahCon2012 was quite an exciting conference.  We shared some of our work relating both to new methodology and…

Here's a guest post from Dr. Greg Bowman (UC Berkeley) about FAHcon 2012. I had the opportunity to present two projects at the first Folding@home conference (which was a terrific…

On Friday May 25 at Stanford University, we had the first "all-hands on deck" scientific conference for the Folding@home Consortium.  The goals were to discuss recent scientific advances, share new…
