It's great that gamers can help with such useful research. Esports are becoming more popular and esports competitions are attracting the attention of young people and students, so they can always find their audience and help research with their help. Studying emotion essays https://gradesfixer.com/free-essay-examples/emotion/ you can be sure that great emotions help you feel better and some doctors even claim that they help fight diseases. But modern gaming gives a lot of positive emotions. I am sure that such cooperation will be very useful.

1 in 3 people will get cancer in their lifetime.
Will it be you, a friend, or a loved one?
Maybe not, if we battle cancer together.
PvC - Players vs. Cancer, a program benefitting the American Association for Cancer Research, needs your help in the fight against cancer. The AACR’s scientists work in labs, fighting back against ALL of the more than 200 diseases called cancer. We raise money to fund the best cancer research in the world, with a goal of ending cancer, once and for all.
Join us in our mission.
PLAY to End Cancer.
