BOINC lets you help cutting-edge science research using your computer. The
BOINC app, running on your computer, downloads scientific computing jobs and
runs them invisibly in the background. It's easy and safe.

About 30 science projects use BOINC. They investigate diseases, study climate
change, discover pulsars, and do many other types of scientific research.

The BOINC and Science United projects are located at the University of
California, Berkeley and are supported by the National Science Foundation.
