A Universidade Federal de Goiás (UFG) lidera uma pesquisa para descobrir medicamentos voltados a pacientes com Zika Vírus. O lançamento do projeto Open Zika foi feito no Instituto de Patologia e Saúde Pública da instituição. Por meio de programas de computador, uma triagem virtual vai testar a eficácia de substâncias a serem usadas no tratamento da […]
Rutgers is taking a leading role in an IBM-sponsored World Community Grid project that will use supercomputing power to identify potential drug candidates to cure the Zika virus. The project, known as OpenZika, employs a global team of scientists who will perform “virtual” experiments in a search of treatments for the fast-spreading virus that the […]
Two Rutgers scientists are seeking the public’s help as they search for a cure for the Zika virus. Alex Perryman and Joel Freundlich are part of a supercomputing project that is screening current drugs and millions of drug-like compounds against models of Zika protein structures. Anyone with an Internet-connected computer or Android smartphone or tablet […]
While you sleep, your laptop could be helping to find a treatment for the Zika virus, says a Rutgers researcher who has been tapped to oversee a worldwide computer project. The World Community Grid, sponsored by IBM, uses the idle “screensaver” time on more than three million computers – both private and institutional – to […]
IBM is sponsoring the project using its World Community Grid. The grid aids scientists by harnessing the unused computing power of volunteers’ computers and Android devices. Anyone with an Internet-connected computer or Android smartphone or tablet can download an app that runs the program while their computer is idle. When the computer’s CPU is in […]
Scientists at Rutgers are playing a role in the search for a cure for the Zika virus, and they’re seeking the public’s help. Alex Perryman, a research teaching specialist at Rutgers’ New Jersey Medical School, and Joel Freundlich, associate professor of pharmacology and physiology and medicine, are part of a supercomputing project that screens current […]
A global project led by researchers at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School in Newark is using a crowd-sourced supercomputer network to test potential cures for the Zika virus, the infection expected to spread into the southern United States this summer. You can help: Just download an app to allow the IBM-sponsored “world community grid” to […]
A IBM e a UFG (Universidade Federal de Goiás) lançaram nesta quinta-feira (19) um mega estudo com objetivo de desenvolver novas substâncias que possam se tornar medicamento antiviral para combater o vírus zika. Batizada de OpenZika, a ação faz parte do World Community Grid, iniciativa social da IBM que colabora no avanço de pesquisas científicas. […]
