Fold it

Play the game, Fold It. For science!

• Want to play a game and do science? Heck yes! Then you will want to learn more about, Fold It. It’s computer game that is all about folding proteins!

• More of a hands on Mad Art Labber? Like to draw and teach people about physics? Then you will love this article that teaches you how to draw Feynman diagrams! (via @kiwinerd)

• Speaking of the small, here is an interesting art and science story sent in via our pal, Jen at Skepchick: It seems the estate of James Joyce is rather upset because some scientists have inscribed one of his passages in the genome of a synthetic microbe. Is it copyright infringement? Click here to find out the irony of what the passage says and what it has become.
