This, along with the likely humanitarian benefits of the research, has led the World Community Grid (a distributed computing grid that uses idle computer clock time) to run the Fiocruz project.

The Fiocruz Genome Comparison Project is a collaborative effort involving Brazil's Oswaldo Cruz Institute and IBM's World Community Grid, designed to produce a database comparing the genes from many genomes with each other using SSEARCH.
Grid.org has been succeeded by similar projects such as World Community Grid, Human Proteome Folding Project, Compute Against Cancer and Folding@Home.
