The way proteins fold is very complex as it has to happen in a specific environment but the human mind is capable of analyzing how they fold by understanding the exit tunnel, whereas AI is able to collect vast amounts of data and make important discoveries.

Protein Folding
Summary
The process of protein folding involves figuring out what shape the protein is going to take as it emerges from the ribosome. Although proteins have the potential to take many different shapes, the sequence of the protein will ultimately determine its specific, unique shape.

Epilepsy
Summary
Twin studies have shown that if one identical twin gets epilepsy, there is a 40-50% chance that the other twin will also develop epilepsy. These studies aim to identify genetic factors linked with the disease.
