With the help of the supercomputing and the research network, researchers exploit the vast amounts of international sleep data.

A trial in Japan has demonstrated the world’s first system able to store genome data from many individuals in multiple locations so that they can be used for medical treatment and healthcare.

In a joint project, University of Eastern Finland and Finland's R&E network CSC have cut down a key procedure in drug discovery from four months to 10 days.

Eduroam is being deployed in hospitals and clinics in South Africa, providing health sciences students and staff with easy access to the internet at off-campus and on-campus training locations

Since camels often move between different regions, controlling diseases such as corona viruses calls for a transboundary approach.

ICT shortened the distance across the Atlantic Ocean between Rio de Janeiro and London, allowing the exchange of information and surgery rehearsals in real time in a virtual environment.

SURF's Research Cloud makes cutting-edge collaborative cancer research faster, more cost-effective and more impactful.

Gazing into computer screens for hours contributes to millions of people suffering from dry eye syndrome. Backed by supercomputing, Finnish researchers suggest better eye drop treatment.

CSC has recently developed new services for sensitive data management for research so that data from more patients can be shared and analysed to fast-track discoveries.

While a variety of genetic factors are known to play major roles in relation to cancer, the specific pathways still largely remain to be discovered. This is the main scope of computational biology.

Researchers in the BODYinTRANSIT project are studying how Body Transformation Experiences (BTE), or perceptual illusions of body change, can be engineered, to create the illusion of being something different than what they are in reality.

Irma Khachidze has been preparing the ground for novel computational methods to study such brain disorders in Georgia, supported by GRENA within the EU-funded EaPConnect project and its ‘Enlighten Your Research’ programme.
