The Garvan Institute of Medical Research needs more computing power to speed up cancer research. Donate the power of your smartphone to help, with DreamLab - the flagship program of Vodafone Foundation Australia.
Download the app, choose how much data to give, and let your phone crack a piece of the cancer puzzle as it recharges.

Yup just hope that radio wave emitting device you plug in every night right next to your bed doesn't cause cancer, I checked Apple said it's fine although they do have a discliamer in their manual as do all the other phone companies!
I had a program that did the same on desktop PCs but phones are so powerful now the information being crunched must be amazing.

Great idea, would love to help somehow. I've noted it doesn't seem to start unless you open it each night, bit annoying, looking to automate that with tasker or similar, although don't have root now so not 100% certain it can be done.
