About BIH HPC

BIH high performance compute was designed and optimized for processing human genome data for translational research. The system is currently used by 150+ groups and 900+ users mostly for bioinformatics data analysis but also for simulation, image analysis, and machine learning. Power user should consider contributing funding.
