Breaking through the ML/AI computational barrier
It is a surprise to many, but the frenetic activity spawned in ML and AI over the past decade has not been driven by theoretical advances. The fundamental underpinnings of current ML/AI approaches were published by ...
Somatic mutation in normal tissues
Somatic mutations underpin cancer development and have been speculated to contribute to ageing and a range of diseases. Over the past decade, the ability to sequence cancer genomes has transformed our understanding of the ...
EUMETSAT overview on aerosols
Our invited speakers Federico Fierli and Julia Wagemann (EUMETSAT, Germany) will overview the available aerosol products produced by EUMETSAT and the associated capacity-building activities for promoting the use of these datasets.
The Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias and some challenges in the exploration of the universe
The Institute of Astrofisica de Canarias is a public research organization with a mission to produce advances in our knowledge of the Universe. At the Observatories of the Institute there are more than 40 telescopes in ...
Architecting full-stack quantum computing systems in the NISQ era and beyond
The advances in quantum hardware with functional quantum processors integrating tens of noisy qubits, together with the availability of near-term quantum algorithms have allowed the development of the so-called full-stacks ...
The Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology
The lecture will overview the activities of the Caribbean Institute for Meteorology and Hydrology oriented to the impacts of the Saharan dust transport towards the Caribbean.
Python performance matters
It's 2022. Moore's Law and Dennard scaling have run out of steam, making it harder than ever to achieve high performance - especially in Python. This talk first explains in detail the unique challenges that Python poses ...
Mitigating the health effect of desert dust storms
The lecture will overview the exposure reduction approaches for mitigating the health effects of desert dust storms that are being implemented in the Eastern Mediterranean. He will introduce the activities of the EU Life+ ...
Accelerating genome analysis
Genome analysis is the foundation of many scientific and medical discoveries as well as a key pillar of personalized medicine. Any analysis of a genome fundamentally starts with the reconstruction of the genome from its ...
Non-globular proteins in the era of high accurate structure prediction
Protein structure prediction has long been considered the “Holy Grail” of structural biology. The recent success of AlphaFold has ushered in a new era of highly accurate structure prediction, bringing to light the secrets ...
Tropical forest dynamics in ESM4.1: ecological processes, disturbance, and climate change projections
Tropical forests contribute a major sink for anthropogenic carbon emissions essential to slowing down the buildup of atmospheric CO2 and buffering climate change impacts. However, the response of tropical forests to more ...
New approaches for phylogenetic species tree estimation
Phylogenies are a fundamental tool that provide insight into microbial dynamics. Yet phylogenies can be very challenging on large biological datasets, especially when attempting to infer species phylogenies from multiple ...
Biomedical digital twins for cancer – early lessons and future directions
Research into applications for biomedical digital twins is taking off as a new frontier for precision medicine. With early efforts commencing in Europe and now with established programs initiatives and programs globally, ...
Dust research at tropos in Leipzig (Germany)
The lecture will overview the experimental and modelling activities of TROPOS (Leibniz-Insititut für Troposphärenforschung, https://www.tropos.de/). TROPOS is one of the reference groups in Europe on dust research.
Multi-omics analysis of the host immune response to malaria infection
The disease burden of malaria remains a significant global public health challenge with >600,000 deaths in 2020. Interindividual and inter-ethnic differences in susceptibility to malaria is multifactorial and has a significant ...
The unappreciated role of K-mers in bioinformatics
K-mers are used on a daily basis in bioinformatics. Although they have existed at the core of several popular tools for genome assembly for quite some time, until recently they have been woefully underutilized. Although ...
EuroHPC AI in DAPHNE
DAPHNE (Integrated Data Analysis Pipelines for Large-Scale Data Management, HPC, and Machine Learning) project will be presented, followed by selected recent developments and opportunities with DAPHNE in EuroHPC deployments ...
Task partitioning and orchestration in edge computing systems
Many computer-intensive applications running on mobile devices require low latency responses, such as 3D SLAM. Edge computing is a new paradigm moving Cloud features closer to end users and providing necessary computing ...
A modular, flexible hardware network stack for direct- attached accelerators
Accelerators have become increasingly popular in datacenters due to their energy and performance benefits. Direct-attached accelerators, where the network stack is implemented in hardware and network traffic bypasses the ...
