UCIBIO and LAQV members, in collaboration with LIP and CNCA, will instruct a hands-on course tailored for researchers who are interested in starting projects that require high computational power. The course will teach how artificial intelligence works together with classical HPC in order to understand, design, and control biomolecular systems with unprecedented precision.
The course will cover the following modules:
OPTIONAL Module 0:
Introduction to HPC (Jan 30, 10:00 - 12:00)
(required module for users who don't have any knoledge about HPC)
Online hand-on tutorial on which users will learn how to use the CNCA HPC cluster.
Introduction:
Presentation of the BSC-AI fabric services tailored for Bioengineering
Module 1 (OMICS):
High-throughput Sequencing Data (Feb 4, 09:00 – 12:30)
Transcriptome Assembly (Feb 4, 14:00 – 17:30)
Phylogenomics (Feb 5, 09:00 – 12:30)
Module 2 (Molecular Modeling)
Structure-based Virtual Screening (Feb 5, 14:00 – 17:30)
Molecular Dynamics (Feb 6, 09:00 – 12:30)
Hybrid Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics (Feb 6, 14:00 – 17:30)
