Case Studies

Developing a framework to improve fusion research

STFC Hartree Centre is helping to make commercial fusion energy a reality by optimising data analysis with a Daskhub framework as part of Fusion Computing Lab, a collaboration with the UK Atomic Energy Authority.

Improving river traffic control using data science and machine learning

NASH Maritime is working with the STFC Hartree® Centre to develop methods that accurately track the speeds of watercraft to enhance river safety through the Innovate UK BridgeAI programme.

Enhancing drug delivery with synthetic virus-like particles

STFC Hartree® Centre worked with IBM and the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) to accelerate virus-inspired drug delivery research.

Advancing our understanding of complex diseases using AI

STFC Hartree® Centre worked with IBM through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) to develop an AI-enabled multi-omics integration software to enhance understanding of multi-factorial conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease.

Utilising quantum computing for breast cancer subtyping

STFC Hartree Centre worked with Royal Brompton Harefield Hospitals, Imperial College London and IBM through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) using quantum computing to differentiate between breast cancer subtypes.

Using quantum computing to improve molecular modelling in drug development

STFC Hartree Centre worked with AstraZeneca and Algorithmiq through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) programme to improve molecular modelling accuracy and accelerate drug development.

Fortifying climate resilience by increasing security for CReDo

STFC Hartree Centre worked as part of the Climate Resilience Demonstrator (CReDo) project, an initiative aiming to enhance UK utility infrastructure resilience to climate change, to optimise security for users, developers, and future collaborators.

Optimising emergency responses in cities using data-driven intelligence

STFC Hartree Centre worked with IBM and Riskaware through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) to enhance responses to emergency situations in cities.

Finding cheaper and more sustainable ceramic glazes using data science

Through the Innovate UK BridgeAI programme, Box O Fun worked with STFC Hartree Centre to develop a tool that will help ceramicists easily find alternative glazes that reduce costs and waste while maintaining desired glaze properties.
