About GPUGRID.net

GPUGRID.net is a distributed computing project that aims at harnessing the processing power of novel accelerator processors for computational molecular biology.

Our activities pursue exclusively scientific and academic goals, with the invaluable help of all the volunteers that donate computing power to the GPUGRID.net project in order to advance scientific research. We would like to thank them all here.
