We were pretty active in this a few years ago, with our own team:
http://fah-web2.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/main.py?qtype=teampage&teamnum=346
I've started back up again and encourage others to join in.
Folding at home is a crowd-sourced protein folding simulation project that's
attempting to help find the causes of and cures for diseases including
Alzheimer's and Creutzfeldt-Jakob (like mad cow disease). Clients are
available for Mac, Windows, Linux, and Android (but it's compute-intensive,
so you probably don't want it on your phone). On a desktop system it runs
in the background so it doesn't degrade performance significantly. If you
do join, please register with our team, #346.
