The technique could become a fast and inexpensive diagnostic tool for detecting proteins related to diseases, said Richard Zare, director of the chemistry lab that developed the method. Researchers believe it could detect proteins associated with diseases such as AIDS or tuberculosis. (click link for more)

If this is true, folding no longer needs to be taking years to finish. My dreams of hitting 1 million might be over.
