High-performance computer, Bonn

High Performance Computing (HPC) plays a crucial role in bioinformatics, genomics, biomonitoring and AI-driven research, as it provides the computing power needed to analyse large amounts of biological data. At the LIB, HPC is essential for processing next generation sequencing (NGS) data, performing complex genomic analyses and modelling biological systems on an unprecedented scale. In biomonitoring, HPC supports the analysis of environmental data and enables faster insights into ecological changes. In addition, the use of AI on HPC systems accelerates machine learning and predictive modelling and improves our ability to uncover patterns and make data-driven decisions in evolutionary research.
