Folding@Home's major
results published in Nature (October 2002)
This major result will be published in the journal Nature. The
Nature editors have deemed our work sufficiently important to be
placed for Advance Online Publication (AOP) on www.nature.com on
20 October at 1900 London time / 1400 US Eastern time. At that time,
you can access the paper from http://dx.doi.org/10.1038/nature01160
There seems to be some problem with the link below. You can go
to Nature's AOP here.
