Interest in this forum

Hi everybody!

I am a college student doing a practicum project on social activism sites. I chose childhood cancer as my topic, and I found this website as I was researching. I know I am not as knowledgeable about this topic as most in this group, but if anyone could help me out and let me know more about what you guys are doing, that would be great!

Thanks!

I have the WCG software loaded on my system. I'm a U of Illinois Grad. Student in Software Engineering and BioTech. I very much want to get involved in the WCG.

How do I at least have cycles run on my system - Toshiba Satellite.

Re: Interest in this forum

You should probably edit your post and change the email addresses to something more along the lines of wrope2-at-uis.edu so you don't nailed with spammers. You can also put your email address in your forum profile so it shows up in the little auto icons at the bottom of each of your posts.

Cheers
