ISCB SC RSG-Nigeria Webinar - Introduction to High Performance Computing (HPC) for Bioinformatics (Part 1)

​Many analyses simply cannot run on personal laptops anymore. Bioinformatics research increasingly relies on access to High Performance Computing (HPC) systems to analyze genomic datasets, run pipelines aand manage complex workflows.

​In this session, you will learn:
• What HPC is and why it is widely used in bioinformatics
• How researchers run large-scale genomic analyses on shared computing systems
• Key concepts behind HPC environments such as clusters, nodes, and job scheduling
• Practical considerations when preparing bioinformatics workflows for HPC systems

Note:
This session is Part 1 of a two-part series introducing High Performance Computing for bioinformatics. Part 2, scheduled for May, will be a hands-on workshop where participants will apply these concepts in practice.
