The protein folding effort we've been working on has been featured in Science: http://science.sciencemag.org/content/353/6297/338.full They also made a youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cAJQbSLlonI BOINC and Rosetta@home was heavy used for this work, thanks for all the contributions! “We didn't [cheat],” Sergey Ovchinnikov, a grad student in Baker's lab, says with a chuckle. -krypton (aka Sergey) |

Watched the video, it's super accessible to lay people and does a great job of highlighting a huge swath of what Rosetta does and in particular the co-evolution 'shortcut' that you've been working so much on Sergey - big congrats! Are you using co-evolution predictions in this year's CASP? I remember it being quite successful in CASP11. I'd be curious to learn if/how there has been any iterative refinement of the methodology since CASP11? PS - You and David are the most engaged baker lab members on the boards here, thanks for taking the time to post and keep us in the loop. :) |

Watched the video and it is amazing to see what has been accomplished in such a short period of time. The potential is unlimited and the vision is glorious. I am excited to see what the future holds! Bill |
