At EMBL Heidelberg, the IT infrastructure is designed to support data-driven science involving key technologies such as genome sequencing, large-scale imaging, computational biology and modelling.
The EMBL 3D Cloud is a flexible, scalable virtualisation infrastructure that enables users to process microscopy data without having to move large datasets multiple times.
Discover how EMBL scientists are using GPU computing to push biology forward and how IT Services are supporting these activities.
