Summary

The Center for Game Science at the University of Washington and the Institute for Protein Design at the University of Washington developed these rules to support Foldit users globally. These guidelines are designed to ensure that contributions are treated as legitimate scientific research rather than mere entertainment. By defining clear standards, the community aims to maintain high-quality competition and encourage honest, data-driven interactions. Understanding these principles helps participants navigate the platform's complex rules effectively.

This community has served as an essential resource for over two decades, helping scientists and enthusiasts solve complex protein folding challenges. It provides a platform for sharing ideas, troubleshooting issues, and fostering collaboration within a dedicated academic environment. The rules are specifically tailored to reflect the University of Washington's mission to advance the study of protein design and folding.
