The Garvan Institute of Medical Research and the Vodafone
Foundation have partnered to create the DreamLab app:
it uses your phone’s processing power donated by you
(choose between 50MB and 1GB of data per month),
and other DreamLab users, to fuel a “supercomputer”
that helps researchers speed up their analyses; in turn,
helping them get closer to cures for cancer, faster.
