Around the world, science is leading the response to some of humanity’s greatest challenges, from cancer research to climate change and the discovery and exploration of new galaxies. The power and possibilities of scientific discovery are enabled by world-class
supercomputing infrastructure such as that provided by the Pawsey Supercomputing Centre.</p>
