In the past, support for specific GPUs was built into the client.  We are working on ways to automatically update this information more easily within the v7 client to support…

The Kasson group has recently published an article in the journal Biochemistry on how influenza binds cell-surface receptors.  In this article, we discuss how computational techniques can be used for…

We're installing a new web page for our main site https://foldingathome.org/.  While we're not done quite yet, the main changes are in.  Hopefully the new site is cleaner and simpler,…

I'm very excited to finally talk about some key new results from our lab.  These results have been a long time in coming and in many ways represents a major…

Today, I'm highlighting the work primarily out of Chris Garcia's lab at Stanford Medical School.  The Garcia lab had a very exciting idea on how to re-engineer a very important…

A key aspect of Folding@home research has been using computational methods to design new drugs, especially for Alzheimer’s Disease.  At the University of Virginia, the Shirts lab is developing methods…

Understanding protein folding has many possible areas of biological and biomedical impact.  For example, consider one of the major research areas of the Kasson lab at the University of Virginia,…

The FCF site has had some DNS changes and you may not be able to reach it from its normal url (http://foldingforum.org/).  If not, please try this one temporarily:  http://m202.sgded.com/~folding1/…

The stats system went down last night and is now back up.  We are working on recrediting the WUs that came in last night.  WUs coming in now should be…

As we've mentioned earlier, we have been preparing changes to the bigadv system –– both an increase in the number of cores required (and a shortening of deadlines to match)…
