I've read thru the about files on this site, etc, but for the life of me, I can't figure out if this project is sponsored by a university or a company, or just Dave Baker.

Maybe I just missed it, but the only reference I see to any "non profit" is the copyright "University of Washington" at the bottom of the page...


How is this project funded/backed? I think that a fair question from all crunchers...

The project is backed by the University of Washington, where David Baker is a professor, and run out of The Baker Laboratory.

I'm not 100% sure about all their sources of funding specifically for this project, I would expect the University of Washington would be directly responsible for at least part of it, but I'll wait for someone who is part of the Baker Lab to give you the precise details.

There is the following text:

Rosetta was created under National Institutes of Health, Human Frontier Science Program Grant, National Science Foundation, Office of Naval Research, Packard Foundation, the Damon Runyon Cancer Research Foundation, Jane Coffin Childs Foundation and in part by researchers of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) at UW.

Aegion is correct. The project is run from David Baker's lab at the University of Washington.
