DESCRIPTION:High-performance computing (HPC) is a fundamental technology us
 ed to solve a wide range of scientific research problems. Many important c
 hallenges in science such as protein folding\, drug discovery\, and tumour
  evolution\, all depend on simulations\, models and analyses run on HPC fa
 cilities to make progress.\n\nThis course introduces HPC to life science r
 esearchers\, focusing on the aspects that are most important for those new
  to this technology to understand. It will help you judge how HPC can best
  benefit your research\, and equip you to go on to successfully and effici
 ently make use of HPC facilities in future. The course will cover basic co
 ncepts in HPC hardware\, software\, user environments\, filesystems\, and 
 programming models. It also provides an opportunity to gain hands-on pract
 ical experience and assistance using an HPC system (MARENOSTRUM) through e
 xamples drawn from the life sciences\, such as biomolecular simulation (GR
 OMACS) and multicellular simulations (PhysiCell).\n\nThe course is organis
 ed and funded by PerMedCoE - the HPC/Exascale Centre of Excellence in Pers
 onalised Medicine ([https://permedcoe.eu/](https://permedcoe.eu/)) and Bi
 oExcel - the Centre of Excellence for Computational Biomolecular Research 
 ([http://bioexcel.eu](http://bioexcel.eu/)) using the HPC infrastructure 
 at the Barcelona Supercomputing Centre. This course will take place face-
 to-face on the premises of the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - Bar
 celonaTech (UPC).
