when you're not using your PS3 it goes into an idle state much like computers and during this time a program will self start and the powerful processor Cell to run algortithms and get data for cancer studies. I think it basically just gives scientist more statistics to work with. I don't think your PS3 could someday unlock the formula for a certain type of medicine or anything. Google also has something like this going around.
