The UK National Health Service is collaborating with university partners to transform public health and personalized medicine with the power of high- performance computing.
Bioscience teams at NHS and the UK’s Cloud Infrastructure for Microbial Bioinformatics project need high performance computing and storage systems to enable next-generation genome sequencing technologies.
The CLIMB project is a collaboration among Warwick, Birmingham, Cardiff, Swansea, Bath and Leicester Universities and the Quadram Institute Bioscience. It is dedicated to developing and deploying a world-leading cyber-infrastructure for microbial bioinformatics, providing cloud-based compute, storage and analysis tools for microbiologists across the UK, accompanied by a wide range of bioinformatics training activities.
