While more computing power is always beneficial, what else does the project need most at this stage?

Are there specific areas where volunteers can contribute beyond donating crunching power?

For example, are there needs related to software development, outreach, documentation, or anything else that could help this projects thrive?

Well, that's complicated...
We definitely need some hardware to upgrade our server infrastructure. The one we have works but, as you may probably know, it was not able in the past to completely fulfill the volunteers requests (slow workunits production rate).
More important is the scientific part. We have some ideas, some of them are also very interesting (IMHO), we are still trying to work with single-cell transcriptomic datasets (related to pediatric cancer disease), but science is not "easy".
