Folding@Home project continues its joint effort to assist researchers around the world taking up the global fight against CoViD-19.
After initial quality control and limited testing phases, Folding@home team has released an initial wave of projects simulating potentially druggable protein targets from SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes CoViD-19). This initial wave of projects focuses on better understanding how coronaviruses interact with the human ACE2 receptor required for viral entry into human host cells, and how researchers might be able to interfere with them through the design of new therapeutic antibodies.
You (yes YOU) can help now!
You can potentially save human lives.
Doesn’t matter if you’re running Linux, Windows or MacOS.
Doesn’t matter if you have a laptop or a gaming desktop with usable GPU.
Just >> install the app<< , optionally configure desired number of threads and/or core usage %, the rest is automatic.
Link to ongoing project description (subject to change).
Full list of projects they do (but for now all CoViD-19 activity has top priority).
You’re reading this on online forum; this means you have electricity, internet connection, and most probably a couple of CPU cores to spare.
Don’t just stand aside. Help us.
