Researchers at the University of Washington are trying to make medical discoveries, even finding a cure for HIV by a new game called Foldit. This game may be the key for biological mysteries ranging from vaccine to Alzheimer. The free program is available at http://fold.it/.
Foldit is the first protein-folding project which capitalizes on people’s natural 3-D problem-solving skills. Researchers are trying to use the brain power of people all around the world to advance biomedical research and asking volunteers to participate in this study. Researchers are unsure about the result.
