Crowdsourcing for Medical Research

With millions of dollars spent on medical research and fewer results from those investments, the Myelin Repair Foundation has proposed an interesting game to try to spark discussion about how to deal with a public health crisis and subsequent medical research.

November 9-10, a virtual game will begin. Anyone can play (register here). The coolest result of this game will be the collection of collaborative thought from people - both inside the medical community and outside - to try to reevaluate the current processes of medical research and development to try to find more effective and efficient ways of progressing medical research.
