Empowering Research With Easy Access to Infrastructure Required to Tackle Most Pressing Life Science Questions
On A Journey Towards Improved Treatments For Enhanced Human Health
BioHPC, within Lyda Hill Department of Bioinformatics, supports research at the University of Texas Southwestern to give researchers easy access to the sophisticated technology needed for advancements in molecular biology.
The research being done at UTSouthwestern will eventually lead to better treatments of human health - everything from cancer and neurodegenerative diseases to viral infections. With a powerful Cryo-Electron Microscope researchers are able to quickly create three dimensional structures that can be utilized by machine learning to recognize patterns and lead to faster discovery. The BioHPC department has orchestrated fast storage, fast compute and fast networking to provide researchers with an accessible infrastructure that is as easy to use as an online share drive.
