Microsoft is saying that it will, quote, “solve the problem of cancer” within 10 years.

They plan to do this by using computer science advances to figure out the code of diseased cells so they can be reprogrammed to being healthy.

Microsoft has biologists, programmers and engineers working on cancer. This summer they opened a lab to begin testing the findings of computer scientists who are creating maps of the internal workings of cell networks.

Microsoft hopes that if they can control and regulate cancer, then it could become like a chronic disease which is an easier problem to solve.
