Spam helps cure AIDS

Nice it has a use

By Nick Farrell: Wednesday 02 March 2005, 06:35
BOFFINS at the Royal Perth Hospital in Western Australia and techies from software giant Microsoft are working out a way of killing spam and AIDS in one go.

Apparently the two outfits think that if you can come up with computer techniques that kill spam, you can also develop a vaccine against the killer illness.

The cunning plan uses \"machine learning\" and data mining to decipher HIV's genetic ability to constantly change and disguise itself from immune system deletion.

A physician and computer scientist at the Vole hill Dr David Heckerman said that AIDS mutates a lot but there was a definite pattern. It is just that finding it is so difficult that it is impossible to make a vaccine.

The are hoping that technology that was developed in the fight against spam will show them the way to find this pattern of mutation.

According to the Seattle Post Intelligencer, it is hoped a computer can learn to decipher fundamental repeat patterns about HIV's genetic variability and narrow the search for vaccine targets.

Wow... IF this works out.. we may all have to thank spam one day, cause without a need for spam fighting software it may have taken longer to find a cure for the deadly virus.

hmm...
i wonder how much those tablets gonna go for? Daz a good invesment dey to just have a bottle home, just in case.

We gonna bring back the hippy era. The bullin family.

But then again if they do cure aids, there's still this new strain that kills in 6mths. Dat gonna be another 30-40yrs to cure and then something else gonna pop up. :(
