Dear FAAH volunteers
I'm happy to announce the beginning of a new and important effort in the FightAIDS@Home project. In this phase we are joined by a new research team at Temple University headed by Prof. Ron Levy. FAAH will use the BEDAM Academic Impact Software to help us focus in on the most promising results from the previous FAAH computations, so that we can move forward with experimental testing in an efficient and cost-effective manner. We are pleased to be able to partner with Prof. Levey and his team, who will use high level physical theory and computations to better estimate the binding capabilities of those chemical compounds that we have identified. And, most importantly we are thankful for the huge computational resources that we need and that you provide to move the project forward. With great appreciation, Art Olson |

Wonderful. Keep up the good work.
----------------------------------------When do the jobs start coming in? Will it be still under FA@H or a new FA@H - Phase 2?  |

This isn't the beta they've been talking about that requires data to trickle up continuously is it?
----------------------------------------If so our "dial up" wireless internet connected crunchers won't be able to work on it. [Edit 1 times, last edit by l_mckeon at Sep 29, 2015 11:40:07 PM] |

I hope this has a separate project designation in the same way as Clean Energy - Phase II had. Otherwise, people such as moi who maxed out their contribution in the first phase are going to have less incentive to contribute.
----------------------------------------Of course we're probably a minority so if not, it will at least give everyone else the chance to get to max out on FAAH.   |

I have over 198 years in FA@H and would love to drive that past 200, so I'd prefer to keep the new WUs coming under the banner of the existing FA@H project.

I don't if you're aware of this, but there is no 200 year badge. http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/help/viewSearch.do?searchString=badges However if you don't care about the badge and just want to achieve that level for personal reasons, that's cool. |

Wonderful. Keep up the good work. When do the jobs start coming in? Will it be still under FA@H or a new FA@H - Phase 2? It will be under a Phase 2, new badges, etc. Standby for about 18 hours to get workunits. |
