This will place the University as a leader in AI-driven research within the international higher education and research sector. The investment will fill a critical gap in Australia’s high-performance computing infrastructure, which is currently not meeting research and industry demands, as recently highlighted by the Australian Academy of Science and the Tech Council of Australia.
The platform, Monash AdVanced Environment for Research and Intelligent Computing (MAVERIC), will enable researchers based in Australia’s higher education sector to perform large computational projects that currently lie beyond their reach, with MAVERIC representing Monash’s founding mission to drive social and technological transformation to meet the challenges of the age for communities and industries.
AI-accelerated supercomputers are disrupting and driving transformative outcomes across a wide range of academic and commercial research, including in health and life sciences, advanced manufacturing, climate science and engineering. The results of AI-enabled research are changing lives around the world, building new and exciting business opportunities, and impacting areas such as early disease diagnosis, clinical trials, personalised medicine and drug discovery, amongst many others.
MAVERIC will initially be used to tackle global health challenges, including projects focused on the early detection of cancer, managing the treatment of chronic diseases, empowering clinical trials, and enhancing our scientists’ ability to efficiently and cost-effectively identify new medicines. Further, MAVERIC will support planetary health and climate change research through the analysis of large and complex datasets such as those that relate to air quality, the Antarctic, the impact of heat on populations, and how climate change drives the spread of infectious diseases.
