Development of a collaborative online environment and workbench for the investigation of protein folding.

蛋白质折叠的研究正在产生大量复杂的数据，蛋白质折叠是最重要的悬而未决的生物学问题之一。这项提议旨在开发一个高度协作的内容管理系统和交互式数据挖掘工具，使蛋白质折叠数据能够开放交换和分析。这项建议的一个主要目标是，通过创造一个丰富的信息学环境，促进在并行处理折叠问题各个方面的国际小组之间交流意见和迅速传播新数据。

The investigation of protein folding – one the most important unsolved biological problems, is generating large amounts of complex data. This proposal aims to develop a highly collaborative content management system and interactive data mining tools that will allow the open exchange and analysis of protein folding data. A chief goal of this proposal is, by creating a rich informatics environment, to foster the exchange of ideas and rapid dissemination of new data across the international array of groups working in parallel on various aspects of the folding problem.
