Mr. Abu Naser, Thank You very much for the response, I'll check those keywords (aggregation and misfolding) more thoroughly between web research papers when I get more time.
As for OpenCog, I'm generally interested in used technology (though I'm far away from being an expert), but I'm not aware of a use in bioinformatics other than using OpenCog SAT solver to solve traveling salesman problem (TSP), which has something to do with optimal energy distribution in folding protein prediction. If TSP is an area of Your interest, hopefully I can help with translating TSP to SAT solving supported by OpenCog. But if Your interests reach to other fields, I sincerely hope someone more informed on this mail list can help you. Again, I'm just a lurker here, but I'll try to do my best to learn and share available knowledge.
