Cancer and HIV are two of the biggest killers worldwide. Both have treatments, many with nasty side-effects, but HIV and many types of cancer do not have a cure. With your help and the aid of modern technology, the Find-A-Drug project hopes to change that. In this issue of DC.Ars, we have an interview with Keith Davies, the project lead of Find-A-Drug.

Before we move on to the interview however, we’ll also point out that other diseases and ailments are also being targeted, including Multiple Sclerosis, Malaria, Diabetes and Tuberculosis. Ars Technica has a Find-A-Drug team named Team Hard Cider, which is team number 2167. THC is starting a two-week push, where many members of our other teams are running Find-A-Drug in an effort to boost the team. Any new members would be greatly appreciated!
