Title: GAMES for Science.
Authors: Cossins, Dan
Source: Scientist. Jan2013, Vol. 27 Issue 1, p41-44. 4p.
Subjects: Scientific recreations, Foldit (Game), Molecular structure of RNA, Video gamers, Protein folding, Sequence alignment, Video game industry, Protein folding -- Computer simulation
Abstract: The article offers information about the prospective application of video games to solve scientific mysteries such as RNA structure, protein folding and genetic sequence alignment. It mentions that games such as EteRNA and Foldit have been developed on the same theme and involve gamers from around the world who unknowingly help in solving these complex scientific problems.
