  • BOINC lets you help cutting-edge science research using your computer. The BOINC app, running on your computer, downloads scientific computing jobs and runs them invisibly in the background. It’s easy and safe.
  • About 30 science projects use BOINC. They investigate diseases, study climate change, discover pulsars, and do many other types of scientific research.
  • The BOINC and Science United projects are located at the University of California, Berkeley and are supported by the National Science Foundation.

BOINC is a software platform for “volunteer computing”: large-scale distributed high-throughput computing using volunteered home computers and other resources.
