NCSA, NAIRR Providing Greater Access to AI Resources

“NCSA and the Delta team are excited to support the innovative AI projects researchers are undertaking through the NAIRR pilot,” said NCSA Director Bill Gropp. “The future of artificial intelligence is one of the biggest unknowns facing the academic and research computing communities. NCSA is proud to partner with NAIRR, NSF and the DOE in attempting to find answers to these complex questions and empower AI research in a safe, responsible and equitable manner.”

Creating a Network of Cancer-Fighting Researchers

NCSA’s Health Innovation Program Office (HIPO) is bringing together researchers working toward a better pancreatic cancer treatment, and the research has shown promising results. Stephen A. Boppart is the principal investigator looking into innovative ways to treat pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest forms of cancer, faster and more effectively. HIPO helped Boppart’s team use NCSA’s extensive knowledge in the areas of visualization, image analysis, and machine learning to develop and evaluate analytical approaches.

“Why come to NCSA? Why talk to us? Because we’ve been doing it a long time. Because we have a lot of results to show for that.”
