Studying Endometriosis on Folding@Home
Posted: Thu Oct 15, 2015 5:52 am
Has Folding@Home considered creating projects to study Endometriosis?
Perhaps researchers outside of the FAH community can attempt to answer why this causes such a conundrum. There are only three possible answers:
- Could existing immune-system related Folding@Home projects be used as the basis of "Endo" research ?
- Several attributes of "Endo" appear to be correlatable to existing FAH research.
Perhaps researchers outside of the FAH community can attempt to answer why this causes such a conundrum. There are only three possible answers:
- 1. "It maybe possible, we'll look into it and let you know."
2. "Endometriosis has multi-factorial symptoms which do not make it a good candidate for a Folding@Home project at ANY stage of the disease."
3. "There simply aren't enough funds to do a full analysis of the requirements of such a study. Sorry, maybe sometime in the future, but right now it's just not a priority."
