FightAIDS@Home
(Launched November 21, 2005)
FightAIDS@Home is a
project focused on using computation methods to
identify candidate drugs that have the right shape
and chemical characteristics to block HIV
protease. This approach is called
"Structure-Based Drug Design", and
according to the National
Institute of General Medical Sciences, it has
already had a dramatic effect on the lives of
people living with AIDS.  more
