NVIDIA Folding@Home GPU Q&A

Folding@home is a distributed computing project run by Vijay Pande and the Pande Group at Stanford Univerity where 'people from throughout the world download and run software to band together to make one of the largest supercomputers in the world.' The Folding@home Executive Summary's stated goal is to 'understand protein folding, protein aggregation, and related diseases' by using 'novel computational methods and large scale distributed computing, to simulate timescales thousands to millions of times longer than previously achieved. This has allowed us to simulate folding for the first time, and to now direct our approach to examine folding related disease.
