"A Brief History of HPCBio"
Chris Fields
Director of HPCBio
The High Performance Computing in Biology group (HPCBio) was founded in 2012 as a formal collaboration between the Roy J. Carver Biotechnology Center (CBC), the Carl Woese Institute for Genomic Biology (IGB), and the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA). HPCBio’s missions include providing first-class infrastructure for bioinformatics research in the form of consulting, analytical services, training, and computational resources. In this session I’ll give an overview on HPCBio and how our focus and missions have evolved over the years, with particular emphasis on our collaborations with CNRG, IGB researchers, and other campus units such as NCSA.
Accommodations
For all IGB events, gender neutral bathrooms are available on floors 1 and 2 of the IGB gatehouse, open during the hours of 8am to12pm and 1pm to 5pm.
