Your personal background.
I am currently a graduate physics student pursuing a M.Sc at
the University of British Columbia (UBC). I am interested in
computational and theoretical astrophysics, and am currently working
under the supervision of Jeremy Heyl (<a>http://www.physics.ubc.ca/%7Eheyl/[/url]).

If you would like to know more about me check out my personal website http://www.physics.ubc.ca/~jonben/
Your opinions about Einstein@Home
There are several reasons why I have decided to devote 100% of my spare CPU time to Einstein@Home:

- The goals of the project are... how can I put it... less alien then some other highly publicized projects

- It is the most relevant to my own interests; the physics of compact objects

- This is simply the most exciting distributed computing project available
