    Join the Discussion: How Folding@Home Uses Spare CPU/GPU Power to Fight Diseases

    So does anyone on the site use Folding@Home? In case you do not know, Folding@Home is a way to use your extra CPU/GPU cycles to help solve protein folding to cure diseases. Now that the human genome has been mapped, scientists are trying to figure out how and why proteins fold - and misfold, in...
