- Help cure disease while you sleep. It costs you nothing. It helps a lot.
You can take part in the search for groundbreaking cures for diseases such as Alzheimer's, cancer and infectious diseases such as Ebola. Lend your smartphone's processing power to science while you sleep. It costs you nothing. It helps a lot.
Sony has teamed up with a group of Stanford University (California, USA) scientists to help in their quest to find cures for many of our most common diseases. These scientists studying protein folding need to carry out millions of complicated calculations in order to move forward in their search. Together we will find the cure faster.
