Welcome to the Help Fight Childhood Cancer Project!

Welcome to the Help Fight Childhood Cancer project.

The Help Fight Childhood Cancer comes to you from the Chiba Cancer Center Research Institute, which is affiliated to Chiba University, located in Chiba prefecture, Japan.

As the name of the project implies, the focus of this project is to try to find novel drugs to treat childhood cancers, namely neuroblastoma.

Neuroblastoma is one of the most frequently occurring solid tumors in children, especially in the first two years of their life, and its clinical outcome is still very poor. With your help, we hope to do the initial research which could result in discoveries that could lead to the development of novel drugs to treat these complex pediatric tumors. More information may be found on the World Community Grid website Research pages here: http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/projects_showcase/viewResearch.do

Although, we expect to finish the project in about 2 years on World Community Grid, we will start analyzing the data incrementally. We will keep you informed about our results at http://www.m.chiba-u.ac.jp/class/bioinfor/wcg/e/hfcc_e/index.html

Your contribution is appreciated as it would take us over 100 years on the computers available to us to finish this computation.

Thank you from the

Help Fight Childhood Cancer project team

「ファイト!小児がんプロジェクト」へようこそ

「ファイト!小児がんプロジェクト」が始まります。これは、千葉県にある千葉大学と連携して千葉県がんセンター研究所が行うプロジェクトです。

タイトルからも分かるように、このプロジェクトは小児がんである神経芽腫に対する新しい治療薬を発見するためのものです。

神経芽腫は、小児の固形がんの中で最も発症頻度の高いもののひとつで、とくに2歳までにその多くが発症します。しかし、その治癒率はまだよくありません。あなたのご協力によって、このような治りにくい小児がんに対
する新しい治療薬を発見するための、最初の段階の研究を成功させようではありませんか。詳しい情報については、以下のWorld Community GridウエブサイトのResearchのページをご覧ください。
http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/projects_showcase/viewResearch.do

このプロジェクトは2年で終わる予定ですが、データの解析は次々に増えていきます。また、それらの結果は、以下のウエブサイトに更新されていきます。
http://www.m.chiba-u.ac.jp/class/bioinfor/wcg/hfcc/index.html

あなたの貢献により、通常のコンピューターで行えば100年かかるプロジェクトを2年で終了させることができるようになるのです。

ご協力を心より感謝申し上げます。

「ファイト!小児がんプロジェクト」チームより

Very interesting project, as always on WCG (but this time particularly)!

Now lets see how we can speed up things to beat your 2-years-estimate... accept a bet? biggrin

Re: Welcome to the Help Fight Childhood Cancer Project!

What a surprise! A new project to keep us from getting bored! wink

WCG is a strong supporter of projects involving cancer. This new project is good news especially for children. Too often, children are overlooked. I hope WCG will support more new projects in the future that will help children specifically. biggrin

I love this new project.
Thank you very much. We should do more for our children. They get overlooked because we don't seem to have enough time for them. We should make time. Thank you again.

Let's start the good work. smile
