Idaho INBRE Program- UI Equipment Upgrade for INBRE Data Science Core

项目总结 这项爱达荷州INBRE计划行政补充资金将用于资助改善 我们位于加州大学的数据科学核心设施中的高性能计算基础设施 爱达荷州(UI)。该设备将增强这一理念构建的核心的可及性和影响力 跨学科数据科学研究所(IIDS)。IDS是美国国立卫生研究院20年来留下的遗产 通过INBRE和Cobre资助机制进行的创意投资，现在 独立于NIH的直接支持。IDS是爱达荷州三个网站之一 组成爱达荷州INBRE数据科学核心，为全州范围内的调查人员提供服务。在21财年， IDS的核心设施支持了来自9个不同国家的83名教职员工和190名实习生的研究 学院，30个学术部门，10个中心和研究所。在这273名研究人员中， 其中70%的人在某种程度上依赖于计算基础设施。国际入侵检测系统也是 全州合作，为所有爱达荷州INBRE网络机构提供服务。IID房屋 最先进的设备、高性能计算基础设施、安全的数据存储以及 生物信息学、数据科学和软件工程方面的技术专长。所请求的 设备采购将升级和加强之前和正在进行的NIH IDEA投资 在爱达荷州与生物信息学相关的基础设施、设备和教职员工，高绩效 计算和数据科学。这一增加代表着对我们现有的 安全数据存储、大规模生物信息学分析的能力，以及适用于 人工智能应用程序。我们经历了对计算和数据需求的戏剧性激增 并预计随着爱达荷州INBRE研究活动的开展，这一需求将进一步增长 增加。我们目前的数据存储系统(900 TB)已满90%以上，建议的 设备将有效地使我们的产能增加一倍，同时更换老化的设备。 此外，该设备请求将增加迫切需要的容量，以适应 使用我们Pac Bio的长读测序数据增加对基因组组件的需求 续集II。最后，GPU卡将满足日益增长的硬件需求，适合深度 学习和其他人工智能研究，这是爱达荷州其他网站目前无法提供的能力 INBRE网络。总的来说，这份INBRE行政副刊将增加重要的 提高全州生物医学研究人员能力的设备。

PROJECT SUMMARY This Idaho INBRE Program Administrative Supplement will fund equipment that improves the high-performance computing infrastructure in our Data Science Core facility at the University of Idaho (UI). This equipment will enhance the accessibility and impact of this IDeA-built core in the Institute for Interdisciplinary Data Sciences (IIDS). The IIDS is the legacy of 20-years of NIH IDeA investment through both the INBRE and COBRE funding mechanisms and is now independent from NIH direct support. IIDS is one of three sites across Idaho that together comprise the Idaho INBRE Data Science Core and serves investigators statewide. In FY21, IIDS core facilities supported the research of 83 faculty and 190 trainees from 9 different Colleges, 30 academic departments, and 10 centers and institutes. Of these 273 researchers, 70% of them relied in some way on computational infrastructure. IIDS is also a nexus of statewide collaboration, offering services to all Idaho INBRE Network institutions. IIDS houses state-of-the-art equipment, high performance computing infrastructure, secure data storage, and technical expertise in bioinformatics, data science, and software engineering. The requested equipment purchase will upgrade and enhance the previous and ongoing NIH IDeA investments in Idaho infrastructure, equipment, and faculty/staff related to bioinformatics, high performance computing and data science. The addition represents necessary upgrades to our existing capacity for secure data storage, large scale bioinformatics analyses, and hardware suitable for AI applications. We have experienced dramatic surges in demand for computation and data storage and anticipate that this demand will grow further as Idaho INBRE research activity increases. Our current data storage systems (900 Tb) are over 90% full and the proposed equipment will effectively double our capacity while simultaneously replacing aging equipment. In addition, this equipment request will add critically needed capacity to accommodate the increase in demand for genome assemblies using long read sequencing data from our Pac Bio sequel II. Finally, GPU cards will meet the growing demand for hardware suitable for deep learning and other AI research, a capacity not currently available at other sites within the Idaho INBRE network. Collectively, this INBRE Administrative supplement will add important equipment to enhance the capabilities for biomedical researchers state-wide.
