I think the question is not being answered.... whilst we now know how many genes approximately are done per day, how many are there in the total body of work planned for the whole duration of the HPF2 project - today. That would allow a rough extrapolation of the total WU's to be done and thus provide a very guesstimated date of the initial body of work. Right now, it's like open ended. If so, than batch like updates of what is being worked on, like the malaria reference will keep the members 'connected'...... Pretty please fill in that desire! thx PS well after mile 1, but well before mile 26 is very vague. *bump* Dr. Bonneau or any WCG staff want to chime in?

eso, this is from the mar.2007 newsletter:
----------------------------------------Human Proteome Folding – Phase 2: The first phase of Human Proteome Folding has been completed, having mapped all of the proteins in the Human Genome, as well as several other organisms to determine their shape and function. The second phase of this project is focusing on a small number of proteins that are key markers for disease diagnosis and impact, with a special focus on proteins linked to malaria and cancer. The Human Proteome Folding – Phase 2 project, which is sponsored by the Bonneau Laboratory at New York University in New York, New York, was launched in October 2006 and is expected to run through December of 2008. 4-5 genes a day we have 2400-3250 genes to go.

Does the December of 2008 date take into consideration that there is currently only 2 projects being worked on? HPFP2 must have seen an increase in completed WU's since the completion of the GC project. |

hard to say as when the other projects are coming on stream, they will get big weight as they are short defined and some precursor to a second main project like Dengue will be and HCMD phase 1 was. WCG balances projects based on urgency and personal preference and said that HPF2 is planned thru the end of 2008. Not a single project has ever been faster than the initial indicated end date.
