Silicon-based life simulations (in-silico)
OK, I've asked this before, but surprisingly didn't get any answers. It seems this could only happen in highly specific circumstances as Dr. Angela Collier recently reiterated - but, it would still be an interesting experiment regardless.

Re: would folding at home help with hiv
Work has definitely been done in the recent past, although not sure if any current projects cover HIV / AIDS: https://foldingathome.org/2014/11/05/bryostatin-and-projects-9000-9015/?lng=en https://ghost.foldingathome.org/molecular-dynamics-simulations-reveal-ligand-controlled-positioning-of-a-periph...

Protein Nano-wires in Air-Gen systems
Just curious re: on a discovery that sounds too good to be true :) BUT ... Is there any work Folding@home can contribute to research protein nanowires extracted from the bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens in the recently released work on extracting electricity from air? If it's a real thing, and tho...

Re: Team Verificaion
I'm not sure who you are dealing with that would want this information, but they must not know a great deal about F@H. I mean.... why would you go to the trouble to fold and give the points to a team you have no association with? Exactly - but yah ... that's the state of digital communications. We'...

Re: Team Verificaion
Not sure how they would handle verification if the founder info and password was not available. In some cases teams are associated with other forums or social media groups such as on Facebook. Connections to those can be verified sometimes. Thanks - that information is certainly available on the Fo...

Team Verificaion
In promoting our team, we were recently asked if there's any way to get a verification from the consortium that they are indeed speaking to representatives from our team, and not just some rando scammers. Is there a way for Folding@home to verify our team officially (not looking for an endorsement, ...

PS3EdOlkkola's Passing
Just wanted to let the community know that PS3EdOlkkola passed away in December of last year with his Memorial being held March 4th of this year. His contributions to protein folding science were nothing short of phenomenal. We really miss having Mr. Olkkola (Ed), a very generous citizen scientists ...

Re: 85% TDP Throttling Question
Thanks JimboPalmer and Faar ... that helps. Yea, I've run some old hardware ~24/7 for six years (stopping only for vacations and occasional cleaning) with no issues other than fan bearing failure towards the end of the six years. I have no problem with wear at that rate - small price to pay, but it'...

85% TDP Throttling Question
Back in 2015, I asked a question about equipment wear-n-tear of running the client on Full ... I think at the time, Dr. Pande actually answered saying the client only runs the hardware up to ~85% TDP. Now I can't find the conversation, but I just want to verify ... in v7.6.21 is there any built-in t...

DCN future in light of (gradual) PCoIP gaming adoption
Forward looking question that's probably been answered somewhere. With the gradual adoption of PCoIP/cloud gaming, how do DCNs plan on migrating from an at-home model to one that requires a subscription service to a cloud data center. People may be willing to pay-to-play games ... But paying to fold...

Powassan virus (POWV)
Medical news has been spreading on social media about the emerging concerns over the Powassan flavivirus (POWV) ... a tick-borne disease that can have long-term debilitating consequences for its victims (perhaps worse than Lyme disease - which is a Rotavirus). Even in recovered patients, symptoms ca...

Acquired resistance to IDH inhibition through trans or cis dimer-interface mutations
Recently, I was watching a 2020 Tedx talk by Dr. Christal Sohl (of San Diego State University) that mentioned recent drug discoveries related to IDH and cancer therapeutics. My best guess is, she was talking about Eli Lilly's IDH1/2 Inhibitor LY3410738 (but the talk doesn't mention the company or dr...
