HPC for COVID-19 News
A Supercomputer Analyzed Covid-19 — and an Interesting New Theory Has Emerged
The Summit supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Lab set about crunching data on more than 40,000 genes from 17,000 genetic samples in an effort to better understand Covid-19. When Summit was done analyzing the 2.5 billion genetic combinations, researchers analyzed the results. It was, in the words of Dr. Daniel Jacobson, lead researcher and chief scientist for computational systems biology at Oak Ridge, a “eureka moment.” The computer had revealed a new theory about how Covid-19 impacts the body: the bradykinin hypothesis.

Folding@Home Update ON SARS-CoV-2
Folding@home (FAH or F@h) is a distributed computing project for simulating protein dynamics, including the process of protein folding and the movements of proteins implicated in a variety of diseases. It brings together citizen scientists who volunteer to run simulations of protein dynamics on their personal computers. Insights from this data are helping scientists to better understand biology, and providing new opportunities for developing therapeutics.
