#Responsibility
Stanford Distributed Computing Project
Folding@home is a distributed computing project to perform biomedical research using the computing power of volunteers. The initiative brings together volunteers who donate their personal computational resources for the researchers and scientists to process new data that helps to develop life-saving drugs. We joined the project and set up a folding@home lab from our spare Avenga hardware, which is 100% dedicated to folding.
United for Health
United for Health is an emergency project with a mission to raise funds for 100,000 express tests to make mass coronavirus testing possible. The next step of the project is funding critical medical equipment for hospitals. It is launched by the local Lviv IT Cluster, a community of IT companies and local authorities. Avenga Ukraine, as a member of Lviv IT Cluster, is participating in the initiative and, together with other companies contributing to the campaign, we have raised over $100 000 already.
Medical 3D Printing
Avenga people joined the initiatives supporting hospitals with the 3D printed medical equipment. We started producing adapters developed by Mawi Pipeline that allows using a single assisted mechanical ventilation device for several patients simultaneously. Under the threat of COVID-19, medical centers are in desperate need of such equipment. Also, we support the Provincial Hospital St. Padre Pio in Przemysl with 3D printed visors for medical personnel.
