Compute the Cure for Cancer

WHY COMPUTE THE CURE?

Cancer is the second leading cause of death globally, accounting for 8.8 million deaths in 2015. Over the next two decades, the number of new cases is expected to rise by about 70 percent. ¹

Technology plays an increasingly important role in cancer research, putting the NVIDIA Foundation in a unique position to help in the search for a cure and to support patients in their recovery.
