据英国每日邮报报道,目前,科学家使用世界最快速的超级计算机模拟合成导致多数感冒的感染病毒视频和图像,他们希望这些令人惊异的图像有助于研究治疗感冒的新型药物。澳大利亚墨尔本大学一支研究小组模拟了人类鼻病毒的完全基因组,通常情况下50%感冒病例与鼻病毒有直接关系。这些3D图像是由墨尔本大学于本月初通过IBM蓝色基因Q超级计算机模拟合成的。超级计算机能够更深层次地分析药物分子在人体细胞中的作用,尤其当药物在分子等级的有效性。据IBM生命科学研究合作实验室负责人约翰·华格纳博士称,这台计 According to the British Daily Mail, scientists now use the world’s fastest supercomputer to simulate viral videos and images of the virus that causes the most common cold, and they hope these amazing images will help study new drugs for the treatment of colds. A team from the University of Melbourne, Australia, mimicked the complete genome of human rhinoviruses, and usually 50% of cases of cold are directly related to the rhinovirus. These 3D images were synthesized by the University of Melbourne earlier this month through IBM Blue Gene Q Supercomputer simulations. Supercomputers can analyze deeper the role of drug molecules in human cells, especially when the drug is at the molecular level.
