Hello Everyone,
We're thrilled to announce that work is resuming on the Smash Childhood Cancer project. Anyone who is currently signed up to support the project should begin receiving work units today. Additionally, Dr. Akira Nakagawara has stepped down as the project PI. We are very grateful to him for his years of leadership on this project as well as the Help Fight Childhood Cancer project. He will remain involved in Smash Childhood Cancer as part of the research team. Dr. Godfrey Chan, one of the original research team members for the project, is taking the role of project PI. We are excited for the work that he and the rest of the team will be doing in the weeks and months ahead. More details are here in the latest project update. Thanks to everyone for supporting Smash Childhood Cancer. |

Thanks for update. From your article on the new work, you mention this: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/about_us/viewNewsArticle.do?articleId=342
----------------------------------------It's a 6 year old article on those seven promising compounds. Is there any recent update you give on what is the status of those compounds? AMD Ryzen 5 1600AF 6C/12T 3.2 GHz - 85W AMD Ryzen 5 2500U 4C/8T 2.0 GHz - 28W AMD Ryzen 7 7730U 8C/16T 3.0 GHz |

My 3900X is getting paid 8-9 Boinc points per hour per thread.
----------------------------------------That equivalent to about 5000 Boinc points per day, which is about 1/6 of what it used to be. Anyone else seeing the same or is it just me? |
