So I was reading news on Yahoo and just today an article was released about a group of gamers that were able to fully construct the enzyme that is in HIV.  This will help scientist create a drug that might cure HIV and possibly AIDS!

Here is the article.  Online Gamers Help Crack AIDS Enzyme Puzzle

Finally us gamers are recognized for something!

Release me... I wanna be free!

I read it this morning, but my enthusiasm has died down since.

In general it takes the different look a different group can give. Scientists needed gamers help because gamers think differently than scientists. By working collaboratively, they were able to make this enzyme.

It's pretty cool, but I won't celebrate till it cures something.

I knew it had to do with the game FoldIt. I heard about that game just yesterday. It is great to know that such things like video games, which were considered to have no benefits, do have their place. Hopefully this will take things in the right direction.

That's pretty neat. I wonder if they'll make more games like that that will better society while still providing entertainment for gamers.

Like leggy said, I'm not too excited for anything until a cure comes out of it, but at least it's a good step towards one.

Problem is that a cure for AIDS can't be found until someone can find a cure for viruses in the first place. As of now, no viruses can be cured. The best that has been done was being able to suppress the virus so that the symptoms don't surface. Other than that, the only thing that has been able to completely rid a virus is the natural ability to eventually build immunity. Otherwise, once you get a virus, you have it for life. A virus like AIDS isn't something that you can suppress the symptoms of. But hopefully this can be a step in the right direction.

Foldit is a rather fun game. I think that this is something that will make gamers more interested in science.

That's actually pretty cool. I read it yesterday, but did not feel compelled to post on it till today.

Great to see things so different as gaming and research (I like both, LOL) come together to work as one and get something out of it.
