We’ve had a large influx of GPU clients, including a big donation of time from a corporate partner, and we’ve run a bit low on GPUs late last night (pacific…

We’re grateful for all of the donations we get. Donors have often asked us for other ways to donate and we wanted to give a heads up on a new…

In our simulations, we use models (aka “force fields”) of how a protein’s atoms interact physically.  Recently, we’ve made an important advance in how to make these models, which will,…

Our paper “Activation pathway of Src kinase reveals intermediate states as targets for drug design” in Nature Communications has just come out.  As with Nature journals, it’s unfortunately behind a pay…

The Biophysical Society, an international group that brings together researchers taking a physical perspective on biology, just had its annual meeting in San Francisco.  A number of us involved with…

Through a collaboration with Google, the Huang lab at  UST Hong Kong, and the Pande Lab at Stanford University, we’ve been working on a new way to run Folding@home –– through the browser.  The primary…

I’ll be presenting a webinar on Folding@home open to the public on Tuesday, May 27, 2014 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM PDT.  You can register on this link: https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/688201986.  The…

We’ve been suspicious that the stats system has been undercounting ATI/AMD GPUs for some time now and we have found the issue.  We’ve rolled out an update to the stats…

I recently gave a webinar on OpenMM, the heart of our Core17 for GPUs (and also now more recently, high performance computing on multi-core CPUs as well).  Here’s a link…

Our recent work on simulating kinases on Folding@home and the simulation’s use in identifying potential new cancer drug targets has been just accepted for publication in Nature Communications this morning.  I’ll post…
