Behind Nobel-winning IceCube discoveries, decades of high-throughput computing
UW–Madison and Morgridge Institute researchers have supported Francis Halzen’s work long before IceCube existed — an exemplar of computing collaborations that have now contributed to four Nobel Prize-winning efforts.
Weaving data and computing into a nationwide fabric supporting science
Building on decades of experience advancing research computing, the FabAID project is bringing high-throughput, data-intensive computing — and as many scientists as possible — into the age of AI.
NSF announces investment to shape the nation’s future data backbone
The National Science Foundation announced yesterday a five-year, $24.5 million award of the Fabric for AI-Driven Science (FabAID) led by the Morgridge Institute for Research. FabAID will build a fabric of services to accelerate data-intensive and AI-driven science.
From ‘blobology’ to atomic precision: Wisconsin’s leadership on cryo-EM imaging
Wisconsin is now an established national leader in cryo-electron microscopy, or cryo-EM, thanks to a decade-long strategic push from the UW–Madison biochemistry department and the Morgridge Institute.
High-throughput computing: Fostering data science without limits
HTCondor is gaining adherents across UW because scientists are learning that it is more than someone asking, “What technology do you need?” Research computing is a collaboration, and the people HTC brings to the equation are more important than the technology.
In-person science returns to the Discovery Building
Families returned to Saturday Science at the Discovery Building for the first time since the start of the pandemic.
Hunting viral variants across Wisconsin, powered by high-throughput computing
When dangerous COVID viral variants were sweeping the globe, David O’Connor was busy tracking their spread in Wisconsin. His secret weapon? High-throughput computing.
National Science Foundation establishes a partnership to advance throughput computing
Morgridge and UW–Madison are partners on a $22.5 million project from the National Science Foundation to advance high-throughput computing technology and promote usage nationwide.
New national imaging center has potential to transform medicine
A national research initiative announced today will place the University of Wisconsin–Madison at the forefront of a revolution in imaging fostered by cryo-electron microscopy and cryo-electron tomography.
Seize the Moment: Adapting old tools for a novel coronavirus
Morgridge scientists John Brubacher, Anthony Gitter, Brian Bockelman, Ben Cox and Katie Overmyer, joined Gabriella Gerhardt on July 22 for a Fearless Science webinar about rapidly applying technology and methods to answer COVID-19 questions.
