Access to tools and computational resources for large-scale data analysis often require knowledge of the command-line interface (also referred to as Unix or Linux or bash or shell). In this 3-day […]
This is a short introduction to Parallel Computing that will include an overview of the basic concepts of parallel programming: from running your job in an embarrassingly parallel way to […]
Whether you’re motivated by the joy-sparking tidying up of Marie Kondo, or get inspired by a good old-fashioned spring-cleaning spree, now is a great time to clean up your data. […]
This workshop introduces general principles in image processing and analysis, as well as practical implementations in ImageJ/Fiji. If you are already somewhat advanced (you code your own workflows), this level […]

In this short seminar we cover some simple but essential rules to use the O2 cluster in the most efficient (and inexpensive) way. Audience: Anyone running jobs in the O2 cluster Prerequisites: Familiarity with the O2 cluster and the Slurm scheduler Cost: None Late Drop/Cancel Fee: None Please contact lingsheng_dong@hms.harvard.edu with any question.
A 2-page Data Management Plan (DMP) is now required as part of the new NIH Data Management & Sharing Policy. The Plan will set you up for long-term research success. The DMPTool is web-based and provides basic templates that can help you construct data management plans. The DMPTool provides you with templates, funder mandates, institutional […]
