More Info
Working under scientific guidance, members of the user base at online gaming platform Foldit help to solve “protein puzzles” in order to identify and manipulate the carcinogens that cause liver cancer.
Diego Livachoff: “Finding a cure for cancer through gaming seems incredible, even weird, to me. But here we can understand the true meaning of what an ‘idea’ is: gaming and cancer can’t be in the same place. But then you realize that a game can solve a topic so elusive to science, and that is when we understand the value of an idea.”
