    Hi Everyone

    The Amber developers' team is happy to announce a breakthrough that will
    change the way we do simulations.

    About one year ago, we started building an Amber-specific quantum computer
    (QAMBER) in the basement of Jason Swails' home, making use of the low
    temperatures in Pennsylvania. Last weekend we finally had a working port of
    Amber.

    Our first test was to create the full sequence of a ribosome a big water
    box. We saw the ribosome fold and assemble itself in a matter of seconds !

    We then got greedy, and added some mRNA and some loose aminoacids. We saw
    spontaneous translation of that mRNA into a protein, which proceeded to fold
    itself into the correct structure.

    We are still discussing exactly what water/ions model is best, but we feel
    this is a breakthrough worth celebrating as a community.

    Donations towards Jason's electric bill for the superconducting magnets are
    welcome.


    Adrian
