SDL Biology

The SimLab Biology is a targeted research and support structure that provides an interface between the Supercomputer facilities in Jülich and the Bioscience research communities.

Within the Program-oriented Funding (PoF IV) of Helmholtz Information, this group contributes to Program 1 “Engineering Digital Futures”, Topic 1 “Enabling Computational- & Data-Intensive Science and Engineering”.

Research

Among the many algorithms used in computational bioscience only few have been proven to scale well to the number of processors available in contemporary supercomputers (>1k CPUs). Our tasks include:

• development and maintenance of scalable methods
• development of an integrated application infrastructure for high performance computational biology (HPCB)
• support of users in the development and application of scalable methods
• initiation of collaborative projects for advancing high performance computational biology
