Dassault, NIMHANS, And UberCloud Foster Innovative Non-Invasive Neuro-Stimulation Of The Brain To Treat Schizophrenia, With High Performance Computing

 


In the last six years UberCloud has performed 200 cloud experiments with engineers and scientists and their complex applications.  In a series of challenging high performance computing applications in the Life Sciences, UberCloud’s HPC Containers have been packaged recently with several scientific workflows and application data to simulate complex phenomena in human’s heart and brain. As the core software for these HPC Cloud experiments we are using the (containerized) Abaqus solver running in a fully automated multi-node HPE environment in the Advania HPC Cloud.

This latest HPC cloud experiment is based on computer simulations of a novel non-invasive transcranial electro-stimulation of the human brain to treat schizophrenia.

The experiment has been collaboratively performed by the National Institute of Mental Health & Neuro Sciences in India (NIMHANS), Dassault SIMULIA, Advania, and UberCloud, and generously sponsored by Hewlett Packard Enterprise and Intel.
