Sorry I don't know how to link things to this site but if you type the topic title into a search engine you should be able to find it.Basically online gamers solved a complex AIDS question in 10 days that had stumped scientists for years.

Thanks Seal,yeah I realized it was something different than what your group is involved with but it's the same principle,hope your scientific endeavors are as successful.I think this is a pretty good indicator that this type of thing can work and hope it's expanded to other scientific fields of study.
