post-doctoral researcher at the university of washington, d.c. biochemistry department. good to have you both on. seth, i want to start with you. your department created this game fold it which was used to solve this puzzle. explain to all of us, in layman's terms how it works and were you surprised by the results? >> yeah. how fold it works is we're able to take the biochemistry problems that the scientists are working on and post them as puzzles in an online game. then we have an energy function we got from the biochemists that can basically take a protein structure and give you a number that tells you how well folded that protein is. all the players playing the game are rated and raichged based on how well folded their protein structures are, using this energy function and scoring function. then we can take the best, highest scoring results and give those back to the biochemists for nal sifts. >> you set this up with gamers
