Project description

The ExaScience Life project enables Intel, Janssen, Imec and the universities to learn how HPC should be applied to life sciences problems. The biostatistics and genetics applications will be used as a concrete example of such applications. As described in the following work units, this involves research in a wide range of scientific fields, which is necessary given the different areas of technical expertise required to achieve the bridging aims of the project.
