Supercomputing Bioelectric Fields in the Fight Against Cancer

Researchers from of the University of California at Santa Barbara are using TACC supercomputers to study bioelectric effects of cells to develop new anti-cancer strategies. "For us, this research would not have been possible without XSEDE because such simulations require over 2,000 cores for 24 hours and terabytes of data to reach time scales and length scales where the collective interactions between cells manifest themselves as a pattern," Gibou said. "It helped us observe a surprising structure for the behavior of the aggregate out of the inherent randomness."
