Welcome to the Help Stop TB Project

Dear World Community Grid volunteers,

I am pleased to announce the beginning of a new project, Help Stop TB. This project involves taking a close look at the bacterium that causes tuberculosis, one of the world's deadliest infectious diseases.

Thanks to the massive computational power of World Community Grid, my research team and I will be able to closely study this bacterium and gather data that will help scientists develop new treatments. You can learn more about our project here. We are excited to be working with you and look forward to learning more about how to stop TB.

Thanks for your support,
Anna Croft

Re: Welcome to the Help Stop TB Project

Great!
Any hope for a GPU-accelerated GROMACS version perhaps ? ;-)

Great to have a new project focussing on a major killer in my country.
However I'm also getting the same errors. Back off up to 4 hours already. Must be all the machines attempting to download at once.

Re: Welcome to the Help Stop TB Project

Welcome Anna, and the rest of your team.

As I'm sure you've already been warned - watch out for a deluge of WU's (i.e., data) heading your way. Hopefully you'll be able to start putting all our results to good use in a very short period.

Re: Welcome to the Help Stop TB Project

Usual questions: How long do the WUs typically run and how often do they checkpoint?

Also what's the typical data download and upload per WU?
