FightAIDS@Home

FightAIDS@Home ( Fight AIDS at home) is dedicated to assist research new drugs to fight AIDS.

FightAIDS@Home is the first biomedical distributed computing assignment at all launched. It is barrel by the Olson Laboratory at The Scripps Research Institute, and uses your computer to assist basic analysis to bring to light new drugs, using our growing knowledge of the structural biology of AIDS.

"Why should I join"?
About 42 million human beings are active with HIV or AIDS enclosing the world. HIV mutates and evolves very quickly. Drug resistance is on the get out of bed. Admitting there is any "bioterrorism" in the earth, it comes from Nature itself, in the form of HIV, and we need to fight this very real and long-standing occupation instantly - added than any other threat to humanity.

So every machine counts! Your CPU helps to conceal millions of aspirant drug compounds computationally against detailed models of evolving AIDS viruses an accomplishment previously beyond one without costly supercomputers. FightAIDS@Home accelerates AIDS analysis by connecting you to a global "grid" of distributed computing power.

Go to battle averse to AIDS with your pc!
