Research

Modern cyberinfrastructure — research environments connecting advanced instruments, laboratories, data, computers, and people — involves the multi-layered integration of services and resources. At the Center for Research Computing (CRC), personnel with various expertise form multi-disciplinary science teams that span the layers of cyberinfrastructure required for a research project.
