Folding@home 20th Anniversary Livestream!

Folding@home is twenty years old this year! It’s been a wild ride: Probing the fundamental nature of protein folding, organically growing the world’s first exaflops computing resource, and tackling COVID-19 drug discovery with free energy calculations at unprecedented scale. The project has produced hundreds of peer-reviewed scientific papers and enormous public datasets for researchers to mine.

We were lucky to celebrate some highlights from the past twenty years with Folding@home founder Vijay Pande, Greg Bowman (the current Director of the Folding@home Consortium), Sukrit Singh, ReadyPlayerEmma, and COVID Moonshot guests Alpha Lee and Frank von Delft who joined me to talk about the amazing progress the Moonshot has made over the past few months.
