Folding@home: Stanford scientists and collaborators boost potency, reduce side effects of IL-2 protein used to treat cancer

Today, I'm highlighting the work primarily out of Chris Garcia's lab at Stanford Medical School. The Garcia lab had a very exciting idea on how to re-engineer a very important protein and the Pande lab played a part by providing computer simulations to help understand the mechanism by which the new protein worked. The results are very exciting. Check out the link below for more details.
