Anju R. Gupta's Interfacial Thermal and Transport Laboratory (ITTL) is driven by a passion for translating nature-inspired concepts into practical applications. The lab at the University of Toledo focuses on the interfacial engineering of both soft and hard materials, exploring thermally driven processes that involve heat transfer mechanisms and multiphase flows.
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.
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.
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).
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.
Researchers, developers, system administrators, engineers and students who share an interest in the MVAPICH open-source library for high performance computing (HPC) are gathering at the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC) Monday, Aug. 19, through Wednesday, Aug. 21, for the 12th meeting of the MVAPICH Users Group (MUG).
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.
At The Ohio State University, Jessica Cooperstone leads a research laboratory focused on understanding the factors that create the health benefits found in fruits and vegetables, with the aim of helping the agriculture and food industry cultivate crops that improve overall human health.
University of Maine scientist Pauline Kamath conducts research on the dynamics of infectious diseases that can spread among wildlife, with the use of the high performance computing (HPC) resources at the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC). Kamath, an associate professor of animal health, analyzes genetic, ecological, immunological and epidemiological data to study the evolution and transmission of harmful pathogens in animals to better understand how to treat and control infections.
A drug designed to treat a certain type of cancerous tumor might work well in some patients but not others. To determine why, scientists can study whether specific genetic mutations may impact the therapy’s effectiveness.
Karyopharm Therapeutics, a commercial-stage pharmaceutical company pioneering novel cancer therapies, is taking a closer look at these unique molecular characteristics of different cancers with the help of the Ohio Supercomputer Center (OSC).
