The Drug Design and Optimization Lab (D2OL) ™ works to discover drug candidates against Anthrax, Smallpox, Ebola and SARS and other potentially devastating infectious diseases.

By directly downloading a no amount, non-intrusive software appositeness, you can contribute the idle time applicable on your pc to emerging microbial diseases and added pathogens that significantly impact global health even when not affiliated to the Internet.

D2OL, was chief to apply computational methods to deploy targets against Anthrax, Smallpox and Ebola, and now is first to hold a conceivable SARS ambition (A target conserved between pig and human coronovirus, the suspected virus at the back of SARS).

The D2OL ™ software is downloaded to your individual machine and given drug candidates to evaluate. Once your pc receives tasks to electrocute, it begins a applicant evaluation process similar to finding the right key to fit into a lock. Distributed computing technology enables the action of sending hundreds of thousands of imaginable keys to every bit of computing devices participating in the network. This site manages the results generated and returned to the network once you ally afresh to the internet. At the time that a user, no intervention is required and the software executes as long at the time that it is turned on, much when confused from the Internet.

By applying our tested platform which uniquely takes advantage of all available computing devices within its association containing exclusive computers, servers and eventually devices like TiVo(tm) and the Xbox™, we are applying massive, cost-effective computing power to combat bigger fitness concerns and budding future threats.

Using this computing power, our proprietary methodology to identify targets (focusing on epidemiology, drug adeptness and the target's impersonation in the pathogen's lifecycle) and collaborating with experts in computational chemistry and arrangement based drug design, the (D2OL)™ initiative is working to advance our society's adeptness to act in response to the ever increasing threats in a timely manner.
