While experts fight at the frontlines, we fight from the flanks and are also important to win the war against the coronavirus pandemic. We were inspired and now lead an international campaign to #EndBioWeapons #StopBiologicalWeapons whether this #COVID-19 was a #BW or not: https://t.co/aSzM9nX0rW

Dear Chinedu Nwadike ,
Scientists (students researchers) are to track the spread of the coronavirus in the world by using clues in its genetic code. Analysing samples collected from patients will also reveal whether the virus is mutating into new strains. Until now, there isn't a sufficient and satisfactory answer for this issue!!!
With my best regards
Yes, there is a protein folding programme which can be downloaded by anyone for free:
https://fold.it/
They have sections where COVID related protein folding questions can be solved. The answers from the users are then considered by scientists, and I think through this crowdsourcing a couple of good fits were already found. Apart from that, you will learn a whole lot about protein structures. I think it is from the University of Washington. From Wikipedia: "David Baker, a protein research scientist at the University of Washington, founded the Foldit project. Seth Cooper was the lead game designer. "
I went through the training sessions, there are more than 30 of them, but got stuck at the puzzle No. 18. It is quite challenging.

Everyone has something to contribute, There are great suggestions
