Sony's "Folding At Home" project on #PS3 wrapped up in 2012 after over 100 million hours logged. Created in partnership with Stanford it was designed to improve researchers' ability to examine the process "protein folding."
According to the researchers, two-dimensional protein strands are capable of folding into three-dimensional molecules that then determine biological functions. Sometimes folding goes awry, causing diseases such as cancer and Alzheimer's.
