These references are only for BOINC-projects. I am sure that there are more papers published.
If you have the reference to some more paper, please post in this thread!


Folding@Home is a non-BOINC-project, but has as of today resulted in 109 publications reverenced here.

Thanks, Fred! 🙂

Please let us fill this thread with papers, reports, theses and other scientific publications which either report on the results from the projects or on the projects themselves.
 
😱 Very interesting - so few comments, opinions, posts.
It really seems to me that the interest in the academic part of DC - i.e. the scientific results - seems to be so low ... :hmm:
 
The Rosetta effort goes beyond David Baker's lab. Here's just three former post-docs of Baker who have continued work on Rosetta studying the structure and function of proteins and now have academic positions:

http://graylab.jhu.edu/
http://kortemmelab.ucsf.edu/index.html
http://www.med.unc.edu/biochem/kuhlman

The number of publications that have used and continued to develop Rosetta number well over 150 I think and would be difficult to count.

Here's also a link to Rosetta commons: https://www.rosettacommons.org/

No just away from the forums a lot as are many people I think 🙁, although I expect you've noticed I've been around a bit more very recently 😉.

Interesting that David P. Anderson of SETI is involved with so many of the Milkyway papers.

I'm sure Folding@H has released many papers, I'm going to have a look......

Yep, over 100 Results and Research Papers! 🙂 http://folding.stanford.edu/home/papers

Thanks Mark! I have put the folding publication to the OP althought F@H is not BOINC - but it deserves it too! 🙂

Thanks Fred! 🙂
 
Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread, I can't understand any of the publications, lol, but am always excited to see RESULTS from all the processing power contributed to these projects.
