Rosetta@Home


I've known about SETI@Home for a really long time (can't even remember when I first heard of it), however today I found out about another project, called Rosetta@Home for research to help fight cancer, HIV and other diseases. It seems it's been around for quite some time, and since I hadn't heard of it (thanks Toni), I'm sure there are others who don't know of it either. I've already got my dormant server plugged up, and since it's 100% idle most of the time, that's a lot of juice!

So, sign up. It's for a good cause!

So, what about any on results you produced? Will you get free treatment in exchange of your cooperation or will they patent it and charge you silly amounts of money should you ever need it?

With seti@home I am pretty sure the results will be available to everybody, but with projects like this one, I severely doubt it. That's why I don't participate.
