Computational Resources

For large-scale or sensitive compute and storage needs, NBIS recommends using resources funded by the National Academic Infrastructure for Supercomputing in Sweden (NAISS).

NBIS Support for Computational Resources (SCoRe) works with NAISS to build and maintain an environment suitable for bioinformatics-related projects on NAISS systems, especially the NAISS SENS system for sensitive personal data provided by Uppsala Multidisciplinary Center for Advanced Computational Science (UPPMAX), and the general-purpose HPC system provided by Paralleldatorcentrum (PDC). Moreover, the Knut and Alice Wallenberg foundation (KAW) funds the Berzelius system for AI/ML-related research. All these resources are free for users.

NBIS provides GPU compute resources for leading edge AI researchers in Swedish medical imaging diagnostics, in the form of the AIDA Data Hub Data Science Platform.

Support

NBIS works to improve the productivity of life science researchers using nationally available compute and storage resources, especially the NAISS-funded systems at UPPMAX, PDC, and AIDA Data Hub. We will gladly help researchers find and apply for the resources they need.

By providing a ready environment for life science data analysis on powerful compute resources, we make these resources more accessible to a wider range of researchers. Our goal is that all scientists that could benefit from large-scale compute and storage systems can do so with minimal effort and maximum scientific output. In this way, NBIS ensures the life science community’s needs for a well-maintained software environment, support and training on national e-infrastructures for compute and storage.

Our staff:

  • Answers requests that come through NAISS support
  • Works directly with NAISS resource allocations and project proposals
  • Maintains the software library at PDC and UPPMAX
  • Provides training
