I know that Scripps is currently the facilitator for both the FAAH and Predictor@home. Are they one and the same?

Will there be an HIV cure related BOINC project?

Does anyone know?

Well, Predictor folds proteins, and Folding@Home is currently in beta testing for BOINC. Understanding proteins better could help in the fight for an HIV cure. (Lattice also has some protein oriented projects)

Whether there will be a project specifically targeting AIDS on the BOINC platform remains to be seen.
