What is F@H?

"Our goal: to understand protein folding, misfolding, and related diseases"

It's basically a distributed effort to unfold the secrets behind proteins and the way that they fold which sometimes causes mutations and serious disease like cancer etc. to occur. By joining in, you can help humanity and have fun competing with your friends at the same time.
