The race to understand the brain has just crossed a threshold that once belonged to science fiction. Using one of the world’s fastest supercomputers, researchers have assembled a digital mouse cortex ...

The fastest supercomputer in the world has officially launched at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LNNL) in California. The supercomputer, called "El Capitan," cost $600 million to build ...

Japanese researchers used supercomputer simulations to reveal how sodium ions form clusters and move within hard carbon anodes, identifying nanopore sizes and transition regions that control diffusion ...

The three-time No. 1 system maintains its title ahead of Frontier and Aurora in the latest TOP500 list of the world’s most powerful supercomputers. El Capitan at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory ...

Scientists at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) and collaborators at Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Columbia University report they have achieved a milestone in biological computing: ...

Biophysically detailed simulation of the whole mouse cortex neuron by neuron, with sub-cellular resolution—that is, capturing ion flows and fluctuations of membrane voltage within many compartments ...

Researchers have created one of the most detailed virtual mouse cortex simulations ever achieved by combining massive biological datasets with the extraordinary power of Japan’s Fugaku supercomputer.

Creating a virtual brain may sound like a science-fiction nightmare, but for neuroscientists in Japan and at Seattle’s Allen Institute, it’s a big step toward a long-held dream. They say their ...
