Structure Prediction
Bonneau trained in the Baker laboratory where he contributed to the development of the Rosetta algorithm for ab initio protein structure prediction; he continued this work at the Institute for Systems Biology where he began the Human Proteome Folding Project (with Robin Wilner, Bill Boverman and Viktors Berstis, IBM) on the World Community Grid. The project was the first project run on the World Community Grid and a second phase of the project (HPF2) is currently running. These projects aim to predict the fold and function of unknown proteins in more than 100 complete proteomes.

Famous quotes containing the words structure and/or prediction:
“There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. There is therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.”
—Donald Davidson (b. 1917)
“Recent studies that have investigated maternal satisfaction have found this to be a better prediction of mother-child interaction than work status alone. More important for the overall quality of interaction with their children than simply whether the mother works or not, these studies suggest, is how satisfied the mother is with her role as worker or homemaker. Satisfied women are consistently more warm, involved, playful, stimulating and effective with their children than unsatisfied women.”
—Alison Clarke-Stewart (20th century)
