  • Hmm missed this! (G@H)

    Thursday, January 9, 2003

    Happy New Year to all. Some quick updates on the work we've been doing over the last few months, and what 2003 holds in store for the Genome@home project.

    i) You can all be very proud to say that you have contributed to three major scientific publications, with a fourth now under review. The details of the scientific contributions stemming from the Genome@home research can be found here.

    ii) I presented a portion of our most recent work (stemming from this paper) at the CASP5 meeting on protein structure prediction. Many people were excited by our novel method for identifying structural templates using our designed sequences, and we're eager to continue this work further.

    iii) The development of our new G@h2 core for the Folding@home project is almost complete and we will begin beta-testing next week. The new functionality in this algorithm will allow us to to explore the design of much larger proteins, as well as design only portions of proteins, or design complexes of proteins. We aim to release this core by the end of January. The first set of proteins that we'll be designing with this new core is a large diverse set of proteins in the range of 100 to 200 amino acids.

    iv) Our collaboration with an experimental research group here at Stanford is well under way and we're looking forward to getting some initial results in the next few weeks.
    According to the latest official figures, 43% of all statistics are totally worthless...
