Hi,

Just installed FAH and my GPU got assigned a WU for project 11778. I can't find a description for it (the project lookup says "Project unspecified"). The same applies to the other projects 11765-11781. I assume these are related to SARS-nCOv-2 / COVID-19 but they are not listed in the FAQ entry and blog post on COVID-19. It would be nice to know for sure what these are about.

Thanks,
Osma

These are new projects, and yes are for COVID-19. The researcher has already been contacted about getting the descriptions up.

Sill no description at least for 11776,11777,11778

Still no descriptions. I noticed that these projects have exactly the same atom count and base credit as the 11741-11746 projects ( https://foldingathome.org/2020/03/10/covid19-update/ ) .

I assmue all of the mentioned projects are very similar to the 11741-11746 projects (maybe even just copies)?

That is probably correct, I would have to go through too much information posted over the last few weeks to check the details. As for being copies, usually that is just the basic protein system. Then different starting conditions are applied for the various trajectories through the system.

Thank you very much for the clarifying. Finally the project descriptions are up.
