In the near future PC games will be used in scientific research




A curious fact was discovered not so long ago. Almost any kind of computer games can provide substantial support to science.

There are ideas about the development of online laboratories, in which the information obtained as a result of tests and studies can be evaluated by usual gamers. Probably it will help to avoid a lot of errors and frauds of the results in scientific experiments.

By the way as a support of this original theory some biologists give as an example an online laboratory which they have created for the study of the RNA. More than 150 volunteers. were involved in their experiment and they eventually spent about 2 million hours on this work. Each preliminary result of a scientific experiment was in focus of hundreds eyes pairs of doctors and researchers. Everything was done completely openly and with no attempt to hide something.

This form of research puts scientists in the rigid frames and does not give them an opportunity to correct and adjust the results, because we all know that professionals are always tempted to bring only that data they are comfortable in the end result. And experts believe that those situations can be excluded due to computer games.

Many outstanding discoveries were made in close communication between scientists and researchers. When the researches move to online games, everyone would be forced to use voice communication. In this case voice chats, which are specially designed for a group voice communication over the network could seriously help in future research negotiations. Hope our voice chat would take part in such creative process.
