OpenMM is a key part of Folding@home, powering its GPU cores.  You can learn more about OpenMM at its youtube page, which includes technical videos on how you can incorporate…

Biophysical Journal announced their "Best of 2012" paper collection.  We were excited that one of our papers was included.  That work, "Protein Folding is Mechanistically Robust" investigates how key aspects…

Folding@home has historically been an extremely powerful computing resource, hitting many major computing milestones.  For example, we were awarded a Guinness World Record for being the first to reach a…

Guest post from Dr. Greg Bowman, University of California, Berkeley   Markov state models (MSMs) are a powerful approach for investigating the dynamics of proteins and other biomolecules. The Folding@home…

We're having an issue with the interaction between our web main server and stats db.  We are looking into this.  It looks like the obvious fixes haven't worked, so we…

We have a VM server go down which brought down a few FAH services (notably web site and backup AS), but it's back up.  The stats viewing was unavailable during…

We have had an unfilled spot in our GPU programming team for a few months and I'm happy to announce that we recently made a great new hire: Yutong Zhao.…

We’ve put a new revised AS up and we think this should fix the recent issues. We will of course continue to monitor the situation.

We've been working to fix two issues with GPU clients in FAH.  Here's an update: 1) There was an issue with NVIDIA clients with G80 GPUs getting stuck in a…

We've been seeing donor reports of WU assignment issues for GPUs (WU's intended only for G80 GPUs going to Fermi and Kepler).  We finished an AS patch yesterday, gave it…
