Folding@Home - Results?

[carburngood]

As much as this might appear to be this is not a troll thread. With the huge amount of computing power directed at this project has any of the results been usefully used in research ? And has any drugs or trials resulted from this? Just curious is all. Articles and links are appreciated.

Just read carefully on Stanford's folding site. The papers are all there.

No drugs yet, because Folding is the underlying science. Applying the science is someone else's (other researchers and drug companies?) job. Basic research accumulates a lot of raw information, the next step is the application. Both steps take time and the basic research may not lead to anything. That's the way it is.
