(Ack! I've found myself speaking for another person *again*!)
Given that I hadn't really appreciated what MODELER does in the past,
everything about it is new to me :-).
As far as I know, MODELER doesn't do its own secondary structure
predictions, except as part of a larger homology model.
Andrej is at Rockefeller these days, but the talk I saw was given
under MSI's auspices.
I'm sure he could give a much better summary to the group
than I could. Andrej?
