Boosting Neuroscience Research with High Performance Computing Infrastructure
DescriptionNeuroscience has become a highly interdisciplinary research field, including among others purely experimental studies, applied technology development, mathematical theory, computational models and simulations, AI, visualization and data analysis. However, neuroscience is relatively new to the usage of High Performance Computing. Within the European Flagship project, the Human Brain Project, scientists from all around Europe have made substantial progress in consolidating the computational requirements and usage patterns of this heterogeneous field. In parallel with the evolution of the European HPC landscape, neuroscience has also helped co-design the federated access to HPC, cloud, and data resources through the ICEI project, in collaboration with the FENIX-RI – a European effort to provide federated access to some of the largest HPC centers in Europe.

In this talk, I will provide a general overview of the evolving relationships between neuroscience and HPC. I will also present some examples of scientific highlights which have been made possible by this interaction. Finally, I will provide a perspective of how neuroscience can contribute to future technology co-design keeping in focus societal impact. I will complement this talk with my personal story and international experiences.
