Wow this is so over my head!

Post by Jenzie »

Ok, just some simple questions...

1. So I just leave the little bubbly icon in the bottom right hand corner of my screen and I accumulate F@H points?
2. Someone said something about games or something that help you gather F@H points, but I think I might have misread that.

Hello Jenzie, welcome to the forum.

1. Yep, that's about it. Let it run and help try to find cures and treatments for various diseases.
2. Must be a misread. You can game on a PS3, or your can Fold on a PS3, but not both at the same time. ;)

There is a game, helping to understand basic mechanisms of protein folding:

But this is not solving WU-s in the F@H program, it's separate thing.
