Multiscale Modeling of Arterial Adaptations

The Continuum Biomechanics Lab in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Yale is committed to understanding better the mechanobiological mechanisms by which biomechanical forces regulate processes of adaptation and disease progression in arteries. The lab relies heavily on large scale computing to simulate realistic distributions of blood pressures and flows as well as wall stress fields within large segments of the vasculature. 

Omega Issues

During file system maintenance on Omega last week, the HPC team discovered file corruption on both the home and scratch partitions. We anticipate that the damaged files on the home partition will be restored from backup tapes, so the HPC team and the hardware vendor have focused their efforts on recovering as many scratch files as possible. We believe that we can recover a significant number of files, but there will still be data loss.

Towards Computational Psychiatry: Understanding Mental Illness via Neuroimaging, Pharmacology and Computation

The research division, named Neurocognition, Neurocomputation, and Neurogenetics (N3), focuses on systems neuroscience in psychiatry.  Dr. Anticevic, co-Director of N3, and his team along with other researchers at N3 combine cognitive, computational and genetic approaches as well as pharmacological and neuroimaging genomic techniques to bridge levels of experimental analysis and link genes, circuits, and behavior.
