Research Highlights

The ability to create and control fire was one of the earliest human technologies. For more than a million years we’ve been using flames to cook and power our lives. In the last few hundred years

For the second year in a row, NCI’s supercomputing and big data infrastructure plays a central role in the winning entry of the prestigious Waterhouse Natural Science Art Prize. The winning artwork

Challenge Much the same as a ‘bit’ in classic computing, a ‘qubit’ is used to encode information in quantum computing. Manipulating these qubits in a circuit for computation can be achieved using

Teaching computers to understand language is no easy task. Humans learn and develop their language skills instinctively as children, but developing that ability for a computer system is very hard

Australia’s need for a powerful and predictive bushfire modelling capability has never been clearer. The 2019-20 bushfire season showed just how widespread, unpredictable and terrifying bushfires can

This was originally published via the ANU newsroom. A new study by an international team of researchers has used computer power to map the so-called "sonic scale", showing the key role turbulence

UNSW PhD candidate, visiting student at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research and bioinformatics tool developer Hasindu Gamaarachchi is using NCI’s heterogenous architecture – its integrated mix of

The way our oceans flow – in huge circular gyres the size of continents – is an intricate effect of millimetre-sized turbulence that grows to affect global circulation patterns thousands of kilometres

NCI recently partnered with regional colleagues at the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre and New Zealand eScience Infrastructure, and our industry partners NVIDIA, to bring beginner and intermediate users

Genetic medicine in coming years will benefit from the technical innovations that NCI and the Gadi supercomputer are now enabling. The Garvan Institute of Medical Research is refreshing its 4,000
