Brain activity measured with EEG offers a non-invasive way to study cognitive function. This research uses machine learning and brain connectivity patterns to detect Alzheimer’s disease and frontotemporal dementia, two conditions that are difficult to distinguish clinically. The approach improves diagnostic insights while highlighting the role of brain networks in neurodegenerative disorders.

Inside the VSC Support Team, Alex Domingo shares how effective guidance, clear documentation, and strategic planning help researchers turn challenges into solutions. From software installations to workflow optimization, discover how VSC support empowers users across Flanders to make the most of HPC infrastructure and drive their research forward with confidence.

Using large-scale molecular dynamics simulations, this research quantifies the self-diffusivity of boron in high-temperature CaO–SiO₂–Al₂O₃ slags relevant to silicon recycling. Enabled by VSC Tier-1 supercomputing resources, the study provides diffusion values consistent with diffusion-controlled experiments and clarifies the role of convection in industrial and laboratory systems.

Cancer cells evolve over time through genetic mutations that enable them to adapt, survive therapy, and become drug resistant. Understanding these evolutionary processes at high resolution is essential for developing more effective, targeted cancer treatments.
