GPU project 9852: moving to FAH

Post by sinitskiy »

Hi all,

I'm moving project 9852 to FAH. This project is about NMDA receptors, transmembrane proteins in neurons that play a key role in learning and memory formation. Disruptions in this protein (for example, caused by mutations) may lead to numerous neurological disorders, including schizophrenia, autism and epilepsy. We still don't understand how NMDA receptors work on the resolution level of single atoms. This lack of knowledge impedes a rational design of drugs that would be able to treat the corresponding disorders.

Note that you need to set "max-packet-size/big" to work with this project: this system is pretty big.

#atoms 126753
Timeout 5 days
Deadline = 20 days
Base Credit = 3200
Core 21
k-factor = 0.75
Nvidia/ATI GPUs, Linux/Win (hopefully)

It's been reported that this project may cause troubles in a situation with ATI, Windows and CPU slot on all CPU threads.

Thank you!
