Researchers developed the Generalized Van Cittert-Zernike Schell propagator, a new algorithm for simulating partially coherent light with unprecedented efficiency. The method achieves up to 100× faster computation and 1000× higher accuracy compared to existing approaches, enabling advanced optical simulations for holography, imaging, and photonics using VSC’s high-performance computing infrastructure.

Researchers used population pharmacokinetic modeling and Monte Carlo simulations to optimize fluconazole dosing in critically ill patients. By analyzing data from multiple studies, the work identifies body weight and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) as key factors influencing drug exposure and proposes a model-informed dosing strategy to improve target attainment in intensive care settings.

Mammalian cells can increase the activity of the remaining copy of a gene when the other is deleted. This study shows that the active X chromosome performs this compensation on a gene-by-gene basis at both RNA and protein levels. The work clarifies how cells maintain balanced gene expression and reveals a broader, though limited, compensatory capacity across the genome.

The new VSC User Kit makes it easy to acknowledge VSC in your posters and presentations. Download official logos in multiple formats, follow simple usage guidelines, and share your poster photo for a chance to be featured on our website and social media. Showcase your research and highlight the role of VSC in your results.

Researchers from Ghent University have developed a new computational method that accurately predicts the exotic properties of strongly correlated materials, such as high-temperature superconductors. By combining downfolding techniques with tensor networks, and using the power of VSC supercomputing, the team achieved highly precise simulations of electronic structures—opening new paths for quantum devices and next-generation electronics.
