It's personal preference, really.
Both projects can be checked, or just one of your own determination is fine.
Read up on the sciences of what they are trying to accomplish..and make your own decisions.
They are both cancer related in their own way :)
Help Conquer Cancer:

The mission of Help Conquer Cancer is to improve the results of protein X-ray crystallography, which helps researchers not only annotate unknown parts of the human proteome, but importantly improves their understanding of cancer initiation, progression and treatment.
Human Proteome Folding - Phase II:
»www.worldcommunitygrid.org/proje···earch.do
quote:
This project dovetails with efforts at NYU and ISB to support predictive, preventative and personalized medicine (under the assumption that these secreted proteins will be key elements of this medicine of the future). It is too early to say which proteins will end up being biomarkers (substances sometimes found in an increased amount in the blood, other body fluids, or tissues and which can be used to indicate the presence of some types of cancer). However, it is clear that many will end up being secreted proteins. As in the first phase of the project, the power of World Community Grid will be critical in getting results quickly to researchers in the biological and biomedical communities.
