Like Seti@home, the Folding@home project (so named because it runs protein folding simulations) has been running on computers, but with the addition of the powerful game systems, studies that used to take two years could take about a month, if enough PS3 owners participate.
The projects include studies on
- Alzheimer's Disease
- Cancer
- Huntington's Disease
- Osteogenesis Imperfecta
- Parkinson's Disease
- Ribosome & antibiotics
