NIH awards $224,992 for a high-performance computing engine
The National Institutes of Health has issued the Notice of Award for our grant application Enhancing Computational Skill Development in Biomedical Education and Research through Acquisition of a High-Performance Computing Engine.
The award — $224,992 from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences under the Instrumentation Grant Program for Resource-Limited Institutions (S10GM164901) — funds a high-performance computing engine that will enable computational research and skill development in computational biophysics, chemistry, and biology at California State University, Dominguez Hills.
The machine substantially expands on the lab’s first GPU cluster, installed in January 2025. It will support molecular dynamics, protein design, and machine learning at a scale that has not previously been available on campus, for research and for teaching alike.
Our thanks to the NIH and NIGMS for this support, and to the faculty who built the proposal alongside us.
