Not in modern-day society at large, but in labs, yes. We use models of tumours in our lab so that we can look at how certain tumours respond to different drugs. That way we can figure out what is the best treatment to give to different patients. I developed a method to allow biologists to select the best lab models for certain types of tumours, which is being used now. And it all started off by finding patterns in hundreds of thousands of numbers.
