+Protein folding is linked to disease, such as Alzheimer's, ALS,
+Huntington's, Parkinson's disease, and many Cancers.  Moreover, when
+proteins do not fold correctly (i.e. "misfold"), there can be serious
+consequences, including many well known diseases, such as Alzheimer's,
+Mad Cow (BSE), CJD, ALS, Huntington's, Parkinson's disease, and many
+cancers and cancer-related syndromes.
