Thanks for the ping. I would have missed this article without it.

For those that are not aware, FR has a Folding@Home team that donates computer time to help research into the basics of Alzheimer’s Disease and Parkinson’s Disease, among others.

You download a small program onto a Windows, Linux, Mac or PS3 and let it fold when you are not using the computer.

There are over 250,000 systems crunching away at any time, and each one works on a small part of the bigger research project.

The latest thread is here:

We would love to have you join us.

A cure CAN be found!
