Figure 12 from the Sorin and Pande 2005 paper on helix-coil kinetics, showing complex kinetics between a surprising variety of non-helical states as well.

We revisit a classic paper from Folding@home’s early days in which the supposedly simple dynamics of a simple peptide turns out to be much more exciting than expected.

Classic paper: Improved coarse-graining of Markov state models via explicit consideration of statistical uncertainty

Hierarchy of microstate clusters into macrostates achieved with Bayesian Agglomerative Clustering (BACE)

This classic paper from Folding@home Director Greg Bowman describes a Bayesian approach to clustering microstates into metastable states for building Markov state models, a foundational Folding@home technology.
