The supercomputing vendor offers multiple computing, storage, and analytics options that it says will work well for pharma and sequencing centers.
Researchers from the University of Chicago and other institutions have created a computational workflow for sequence alignment, processing, and variant calling that runs on supercomputers, taking advantage of the parallelization capabilities that these systems offer to shorten th
Three life science computers — at MD Anderson Cancer Center, the Genome Science Center at the University of British Columbia, and the Laboratory for Systems Biology and Medicine at the University of Tokyo — beat the 31.1-teraflop benchmark for inclusion in the latest edition of the twice-yearly list.
