CRUK to launch mobile game to help scientists find cure for cancer

CRUK to launch mobile game to help scientists find cure for cancer: Cancer Research UK will launch a free mobile game this autumn that will speed up the analysis of gene data, by getting the public to help as they play.

In March, 55 ‘hackers’ (computer programmers, gamers, graphic designers), along with Google, Facebook and Amazon attended Cancer Research UK's (CRUK) GameJam event to brainstorm different ways to turn the charity’s gene data into a mobile game.
