Research for a cure for Cancer
Suitable PCs within our office have joined grid.org to assist in a cure for cancer. Sponsored by the University of Oxford and Intel, our computers take a little chuck of data and, using idle computing time, work on the data and then send it back to the research team. It’s all done in the background with no user intervention.

By using over 2 million business and home PCs, years of work can be achieved in a just a few days. The work produced to date amounts to over 400 years of processing power, which would be impossible to undertake with any single computer, no matter how large.

To date we have contributed over 225 days (5,400 hours) of spare computational time to the research. To see the latest on how much time we have contributed, and perhaps join the research (and our team?), click here.
