CCB is happy to provide computational and data science resources for HMS graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, research staff, and faculty across all departments of the HMS quadrangle.
Please email us for additional information on project collaboration, tool/technology development, educational resources, or any general inquiries.
Data sharing is becoming an increasingly prevalent and expected part of the research process. Researchers may be hesitant to share datasets about human subjects, and rightfully so. While some data can be shared respecting Institutional Review Board (IRB) and federal restrictions, other data is ultimately not publicly shareable. This webinar will address conflicts that can […]
Course requirements: Mandatory attendance for all three classes 3-5 hours of reading and exercises from selected lessons before each workshop session Active participation during discussion sessions
This workshop focuses on a critical part of every microscope: the detector. Understanding the detector is crucial to understanding microscopy data, especially if you are making measurements on that data. We will cover theoretical principles behind digital images and the devices we use to generate them, including: how digital cameras detect and measure light the differences […]
Matlab has become the “language of science” in the past few decades. It is simple to use, yet powerful enough to be productive on large computing infrastructures. If you need: 1) Fast prototyping of research ideas; or 2) avoid spending too much time in coding instead of doing real science by taking advantage of Matlab’s […]
Posit Connect (formerly RStudio Connect) will be presenting an overview of workflows with R, R Markdown, Flexdashboard, and Shiny. This short course will provide an introduction to flexible and powerful tools for statistical analysis, reproducible research and interactive visualizations. This session will provide an overview of how to build R Markdown and Shiny applications and […]
O2 Portal is web-based access point to O2 powered by Open OnDemand. This short training teaches you the basic functions of O2 Portal, including file transfer, Slurm job submission and monitoring desktop activities and a few popular applications such as Matlab, Jupyter and Rstudio. Audience: Anyone interested in using the O2 resources for their projects Pre-Requisites: Familiarity […]
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 is perhaps not for you. You will need a laptop with a decent size screen and admin privileges in order to participate. Topics covered include: […]
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 hands-on workshop participants will learn the following: basic shell commands for navigating the file system, exploring file contents, performing basic operations, such as moving, copying, and […]

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. […]
