Biomedical Institute Speeds Researcher Productivity 600 Percent for Faster Insights

Overview Structural biology researchers at The Scripps Research Institute, a leading biomedical research center, used to process test results manually, inhibiting the pace of their work and limiting the time they could spend thinking creatively about their research. To boost productivity, they adopted a custom High-Performance Computing (HPC) solution based on Windows HPC Server 2008. Now, test results are processed 600 percent faster, giving researchers the time they need to analyze their work more thoroughly and to identify more productive research directions. The HPC applications for the solution were created quickly and easily using Microsoft development tools, and the entire solution life cycle is managed centrally and effectively by a single system developer.
