Video game helps advance genetic research into Alzheimer's, diabetes and cancer
MONTREAL - A team of McGill University researchers has come up with a way to make playing video games an entirely productive pursuit.
Computer scientist Jerome Waldispuhl, along with collaborator Mathieu Blanchette, developed a video game similar to the popular puzzle game Tetris _ except there's more to it than just stacking blocks.
The game, called Phylo, involves arranging sequences of coloured shapes that represent human DNA.
By analyzing the DNA sequences, scientists are able to gain new insight into the genetic basis of diseases like Alzheimer's, diabetes and cancer.
The game has enjoyed some popularity, with more than 17,000 people registering online since its November 2010 launch.
"Originally, I think a lot of people came because they are interested in participating in something that contributes to science," Waldispuhl said in an interview. "But the goal is really to expand that to casual players. People don't really need to know that it contributes to science to enjoy it.
