Eternacon 12 will be Sunday, July 26, 9am to 2pm PT featuring talks on player pseudoknot design techniques, the Montparnasse algorithm solving the Eterna100, an RNA scaffold for cryo-EM, and results for our pilot Replicase puzzle. #RNAsky Free to register at eternagame.org/eternacon/2026

Take a peek at our recent writeup about the big impacts of Eterna's work on these tiny, player-designed molecular calculators!

Eterna players were able to design molecular calculators which could revolutionize global health, low-energy computing, and biosensing - lets talk about why this is exciting! (1/7)

Frameshifter is now halfway into our first year, having supported some exciting new developments @eternagame.org from new computational benchmarks for RNA design to origins of life research.

What is Frameshifter's theory of change? The need for accessible contribution to research, and how participatory platforms lead to effective, equitable, and ethical science: frameshifter.org/blog/a-theor...

A Theory of Change | Frameshifter

Discovery is for everyone

Looking forward to speaking at the Serious Play Conference in just a couple weeks! Coming fresh off the tails of announcing @frameshifter.org and grounded in what we've done @eternagame.org, I'll be discussing why #play and scientific discovery games are a powerful tool in the current moment (1/2)

Introducing: Frameshifter, a new nonprofit program (fiscally sponsored by @superbloom.design ) accelerating discoveries and inclusion in science through public engagement in research.
