I remember first hearing about protein folding with the Folding @Home project (https://foldingathome.org) back when I had a spare media server and energy was cheap (free) in my college dorm. I'm not knowledgable on this, but have we come a long way in terms of making protein folding simpler on today's hardware, or is this only applicable to certain types of problems?
It seems like the Folding @Home project is still around!
