🌟Have you heard how Sawyer Thompson is using tech to fight cancer after his dad's diagnosis?
Through Sawyer’s Cancer Fighting Network, he’s donated over 1,000 years of computing power—and counting. Together, we can all make a difference!

I'm a huge fan of World Community Grid, because it's such an easy/small way for us to partner with researchers in looking for cures to diseases and viruses. Essentially, you're just offering up your unused computing power to researchers who need it! Check it out!
We're thrilled to announce that we're moving to Krembil Research Institute (@KBI_UHN, @SchroederInst)! Learn more about our new home and plans for the future: worldcommunitygrid.org/about…

Z inicjatywy Piotra Ożgi i Jana Kałuskiego dołączyliśmy do grona wolontariuszy współtworzących projekt @WCGrid, udostępniając wolną moc obliczeniową nieużywanych przez nas komputerów do celów naukowych.

Great news on for the OpenPandemics - COVID-19 project! We just added GPU support to accelerate our dockings, so now we can generate results more rapidly, and tackle more complex simulations! Kudos to @diogo_stmart, @AndreasTillack and the @WCGrid team! ibm.co/3cVDJQQ

Speaking of @WCGrid. You can donate spare computing power on tablets/phones/computers to help scientists with computational work that be near impossible without volunteers. It's not just us at #HelpStopTB either, there's great teams working on cancers, COVID + more #Science

A son's love and how he is using @WCGrid to help others because of it. @OwenLaRocca Keep up the great work!
