WCG has a new sub project called - Microbiome Immunity Project!

https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread_thread,40248

Dear Volunteers,

We're thrilled to announce a large-scale, comprehensive study of the proteins within the bacteria in and all over the human body: the Microbiome Immunity Project.

Thanks to the enormous computing power of World Community Grid, powered by volunteers like you, our multidisciplinary team will study the structures of these proteins, which may hold the key to the human microbiome's role in diseases such as Type 1 diabetes, Crohn's disease, and ulcerative colitis.

We hope you will join us in this vast undertaking by signing up to contribute to this project!

Thank you,

The Microbiome Immunity Project research team

I gave it a thread of its own for more potential exposure.

Let us know how it goes. This will be a good project to catch up with the number one team in our FB league.

At some point, I need to go back to WCG...
