I understand the basic science must come first, but is there a chance this may eventually help with diabetes?

Hi Ed and Harriet.

Yes, there is a chance that this may eventually help with diabetes along with other serious, high profile medical issues and diseases. For example, there may already be researchers working on diabetes that are using our freely available structure prediction server, Robetta, which uses Rosetta and will hopefully be improved by this project. Or at least there may be in the future.
