Alexander Hoover, an assistant professor in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Cleveland State University, has always been fascinated by marine organisms—the way they move, survive and interact with their habitats. Over the past decade, his research has focused on the interplay of fluids, mechanics and behavior that helps organisms engage in flying, swimming and other activities, an area of study called computational fluid-structure interactions.

Hang “Bill” Yi, a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering at Wright State University, recognizes the need for innovative diagnostic care in our healthcare system. His research, conducted through an academic collaboration with Wright State’s Boonshoft School of Medicine and Miami Valley Hospital-Premier Health, investigates the intricate mechanisms behind various human health conditions and is focused on devising time-saving interventions.
The first-ever Global Open OnDemand (GOOD) conference will be held March 18-20, 2025, at Harvard University to allow the community that uses the Ohio Supercomputer Center’s (OSC) popular web portal to share expertise and learn about advancements in the technology.
Everything in the universe follows a life cycle—humans, plants, planets and even the sun, which has an estimated lifespan of another six to seven billion years before using all its hydrogen fuel. Sultana Nahar, a senior research professor in the Department of Astronomy at The Ohio State University, has dedicated decades to the study of the sun’s composition and evolution, with significant support from the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC).
CSC - IT Center for Science not only oversees two national supercomputers that fuel research and innovation in its home country of Finland, but also manages the LUMI supercomputer, which became Europe’s most powerful supercomputer in 2022.
The Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) 2023-2024 Research Report is now available online. The publication highlights how OSC is advancing the use of high performance computing (HPC) in the state of Ohio and beyond with new and expanded resources and services.
The Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) will offer expanded high performance computing (HPC) resources on its Ascend cluster in early 2025, in collaboration with The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center and The Ohio State University College of Medicine.
With more industries using artificial intelligence (AI) to solve an array of research and technical problems, professionals with AI expertise are in high demand. To help address this workforce need, in 2021 Kent State University launched a new master’s degree in AI through its Department of Computer Science.
This summer middle school students from across the state attended the Ohio Supercomputer Center’s (OSC) Youth Watershed Summer Institute, which offered students the opportunity to collect and analyze data from a local creek, create their own watersheds and learn fundamental computer and analytical skills. The program helped students understand human impacts on biological systems, water chemistry and the importance of habitat to a system’s survival.
Astrophysicists don’t need to use a supercomputer to create models of star formation—but it can certainly help teach the concept to college students.
