Hello everyone,
We wanted to let you know that there will be a pause in work for Smash Childhood Cancer. We estimate that the current batches in our queue will be completed early next week.

The research team is doing preliminary work to start looking at another possible protein target for treatments, so we expect that we will have additional work. We don't yet have an ETA for this additional work, but will let everyone know once we do.

We had originally estimated that the latest set of work units would last until the second half of May. One of the probable reasons that the work was completed more quickly is that we've had an influx of new volunteers in the past few weeks, and Smash Childhood Cancer is one of the most popular projects with many volunteers.

Thanks for your support,

1. They've started analysis for data on a target called osteopontin (SPP1) that has already been run on World Community Grid.
2. Regarding the two grant applications mentioned in last month's update, they're still waiting on decisions. (Many grant makers are prioritizing COVID-19 research and other work is a lesser priority.)
3. They've decided on one of the future targets for World Community Grid to crunch, and have submitted a budget to study it. One of the researchers is waiting for grant money (separate from the two grants mentioned above) to make sure they can study this target. Once the funding has been approved, we'll announce the name of the target and the researchers will begin pre-grid work. No ETA on when this work will be done--timelines are very difficult to predict these days due to COVID-19 and widespread civil unrest.
4. The group is usually involved in a conference called SIOP Asia, which may be web-based this year in September.
5. There was a discussion about how to ensure that they have the resources to do further analysis and testing based on the data they get from WCG in the future.

While the project is paused, we'll continue having monthly calls with the research team.

Dr Keller from the Smash Childhood Cancer project, wrote us:

"The Children's Cancer Therapy Development Institute is grateful to the Volunteers of the World Community Grid for making possible projects in collaboration with Dr Tyuji Hoshino at Chiba University.

The brightest spot of these collaborations was that our project is now part of the $25M Cancer Research UK Cancer Grand Challenge KOODAC Project with MIT, Institut Curie, University of Dundee, Nurix Therapeutics and others to develop protein degrader therapeutics for childhood sarcomas.

The Smash Childhood Cancer program of the WCG has also been the scientific basis of several Summer Internship projects, advancing childhood cancer cures and developing a diverse group of young people towards careers in science and medicine. "

All the best to the team on their future research.

Ось переклад:

Доктор Келлер із проєкту *Smash Childhood Cancer* написав нам:

"Інститут розробки терапії дитячого раку (*The Children's Cancer Therapy Development Institute*) щиро вдячний волонтерам *World Community Grid* за можливість реалізувати проєкти у співпраці з доктором Тюджі Хошіно з Університету Чіба.

Найяскравішим досягненням цієї співпраці стало те, що наш проєкт тепер є частиною грантової ініціативи *Cancer Research UK Cancer Grand Challenge KOODAC Project* із бюджетом 25 мільйонів доларів. До партнерів входять MIT, Інститут Кюрі, Університет Данді, *Nurix Therapeutics* та інші організації, які працюють над розробкою терапевтичних засобів для деградації білків, спрямованих на лікування дитячих сарком.

Програма *Smash Childhood Cancer* також стала науковою основою для кількох літніх стажувань, спрямованих на розвиток методів лікування дитячого раку та підготовку різноманітної групи молодих людей до кар’єри у науці та медицині."

Усього найкращого команді в їхніх майбутніх дослідженнях.
