Amazon offers a grant to use its cloud computing in research
Want to run your research computations on Amazon’s cloud computing service?
http://aws.amazon.com/education/
No word as to when the next grant applicatiion deadline is, but it looks like an ongoing program.
Thanks to Brad Aimone, who got about $3000 worth of compute time for his research project, for alerting us to this.

Immunological Defense Systems R&D Labs,
Would be very interesting to use the cloud. Would Amazon.com, Jeff Bezos, be willing to provide support for other attributes to the project(s) that I would like to produce. I am interested, and I do have plans, plans that I would like to put before the Y-Combinator. I’ve lived and worked in Silicon Valley, and these plans are not some kind of joke, and they are capable of making some serious cash. A running mock-up would be vastly better than a business plan if we were to present to Y-Combinator or perhaps Amazon would like to sponsor the project(s).

Thank you,
