Article - What is Folding and Why Does it Matter?

[seadave77]

A good article on the Folding@Home project. It goes into the details of protein folding, how the project works, and the results of the project now and in the future. Worth a read if you have time.

I haven't gone through the entire article yet, but so far it looks great. Thanks for the link! This will make recruitment easier for me.

Great Reading there seadave77, thanks for sharing, I think will be useful and informative for the newer members to Folding@home,

Definitely a good read as I'm new to all this. I know this is about medical research but I really like being part of the worlds largest distributed computing project (3.3 x the top super computer!). And what else is going to keep my rig busy when I'm not home?

Yes definitely... this needs to be saved into our material for reference.

OK... got the link, now to remember to post it somewhere in the material. :D
