Research Overview

Mapping Arthritis Markers aims to identify molecular markers associated with psoriatic arthritis. This will help researchers identifying earlier patients that will develop psoriatic arthritis, and design more effective treatments.

Scientists at Scripps Research are using World Community Grid to help search for potential treatments for COVID-19, and to build open-source tools to help address future pandemics quickly and early.

95% of agriculture in Africa depends on rainfall. This project uses massive computing power, data from The Weather Company, and other data to provide more accurate rainfall forecasts, which will help farmers more successfully raise crops.

Mapping Cancer Markers aims to identify chemical markers associated with various types of cancer. This will help researchers detect cancer earlier and design more personalized cancer care by determining an individual's susceptibility to developing cancer and suggest the best treatment for them.
