Video: Can Computers Cure Disease?

In this video from the Discovery Channel, Intel’s John Hengeveld describes how computers are replacing experimentation as a way to proceed down the scientific process of trial and error. Hengeveld wrote here recently about his experiences with a rare form of cancer and how researchers at Berkeley are using Big Data to save lives with the Cancer Genome Atlas.

Our thoughts go out to John, a very brave man indeed.
