IGC-Eddie3 high performance storage arrays

We combine the latest computational and experimental technologies to investigate how our genomes work to control the function of molecules, cells and tissues in people and populations. For more than half a century our research has been dedicated to understanding human genetic disease. Today we continue to apply our clinical and scientific expertise, harnessing the power of complex data, to improve health, and the lives of patients and their families. The IE3 high-performance computing cluster provides the analytic power to analyse rich and complex data that underpins most of our research and discoveries, for example in the mechanisms that drive cancer progression. The storage arrays requested here are needed so that data can be moved to computer processors and results received back quickly enough to efficiently make use of the computing power available and to be able to analyse the large quantities of data needed for these studies - for example the analysis of hundreds or thousands of whole genome sequences.
