With Åland University of Applied Sciences joining VIRTA, all 38 Finnish higher education institutions now participate in the national study information service. Developed and maintained by CSC, Finland’s NREN, VIRTA enables secure student data exchange, reduces administrative work and supports more connected education services across Finland.
A new AI tool developed by CAPES with technical assistance from Brazil’s NREN, RNP, is helping researchers register and validate scientific outputs more efficiently. By connecting major academic databases and automating data collection, the system can cut reporting time by up to 80% and improve research information management across Brazil.
Researchers at Kenyatta University are exploring how modified maize tassels can provide a low-cost, sustainable way to remove heavy metals from polluted water. Supported by Kenya’s NREN, KENET, computational simulations are helping the team understand and improve the purification process.
Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are using FABRIC, a US national research testbed, to develop and validate PQSee, an open-source tool that measures post-quantum cryptography adoption. By providing visibility across geographically distributed networks, the project helps organisations in North America prepare their infrastructure for emerging quantum security threats.
Dedan Kimathi University of Technology has embedded blended learning across its courses, supported by Moodle and web conferencing platforms hosted by KENET, Kenya’s NREN. The scalable infrastructure enables reliable online classes and assessments for thousands of students.
Finnish companies using CSC’s high-performance computing services report strong returns, with HPC supporting AI, simulations and data-driven innovation.
REUNA connectivity supports Chile’s first farm animal germplasm bank, improving breeding services and helping safeguard Patagonia’s biodiversity.
A hybrid quantum-classical signal processing method from Japan’s NICT supports massive 6G connectivity for drones, robots and XR devices.
SURF, the Netherlands’ NREN, supported researchers using AI, augmented reality and the Snellius supercomputer to pinpoint epilepsy during brain surgery.
Brazil expands its “Hackers do Bem” program, with NREN RNP training 25,000 more students to boost cyber-security skills and address workforce shortages.
TerraNova, ESnet’s new open-source mapping software, helps research networks create accurate, automatically updated network visualisations.
A Japanese proof of concept led by NICT shows migration to post-quantum cryptography can protect internet security without disrupting existing systems.
