Foldingathome COVID-19 Datasets

Folding@home  is a massively distributed computing project that uses biomolecular simulations to investigate the molecular origins of disease  and accelerate the discovery of new therapies. Run by the Folding@home Consortium , a worldwide network of research laboratories focusing on a variety of different diseases, Folding@home seeks to address problems in human health on a scale that is infeasible by another other means, sharing the results of these large-scale studies with the research community through peer-reviewed publications  and publicly shared datasets. During the COVID-19 epidemic , Folding@home focused its resources on understanding the vulnerabilities in SARS-CoV-2 , the virus that causes COVID-19 disease, and working closely with a number of experimental collaborators to accelerate progress toward effective therapies for treating COVID-19 and ending the pandemic. In the process, it created the world's first exascale distributed computing resource , enabling it to generate valuable scientific datasets of unprecedented size. More information about Folding@home's COVID-19 research activities at the Folding@home COVID-19 page . In addition to working directly with experimental collaborators and rapidly sharing new research findings through preprint servers, Folding@home has joined other researchers in committing to rapidly share all COVID-19 research data , and has joined forces with AWS  and the Molecular Sciences Software Institute (MolSSI)  to share datasets of unprecedented side through the AWS Open Data Registry , indexing these massive datasets via the MolSSI COVID-19 Molecular Structure and Therapeutics Hub . The complete index of all Folding@home datasets can be found here . This repository contains several major datasets from this effort and comprises the single largest collection of molecular simulation data ever released.
