This project at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center New Orleans (LSUHSC-NO) constructs a scalable 26-node high-performance computing cluster (HPC) named Tigerfish. Tigerfish provides LSUHSC-NO researchers with uninterrupted, local access to HPC resources to enable and accelerate their biomedical research. The project provides training to new and existing HPC users to ease their transition to utilizing both Tigerfish and other nationally available HPC resources to meet increasing computational needs of their research. Tigerfish supports research and education within multiple disciplines at LSUHSC-NO including Bioinformatics, Biostatistics, Computational Biology, Genetics, Computational Genomics, Microbiology, Neurology, and Proteomics. This project has broader impacts for the community including training the next generation of researchers as a part of the Tiger Scholars program which provides high-school students with the opportunity to be exposed to the capabilities of HPC in research. Tigerfish is available as a computing resource supporting a high school, undergraduate, and postbaccalaureate student summer research program that provides summer research experiences to students coming to study at LSUHSC-NO from various parts of the country. Tigerfish provides an essential platform for our outreach to regional historically black colleges and universities which lack their own HPC resources for intensive computing. The recently launched Bioinformatics and Genomics program is able to access Tigerfish as an essential resource for their highly intensive computational needs and serves as a resource for the newly established MS Biomedical Sciences-Bioinformatics Track program. Finally, Tigerfish resources are shared with Open Science Grid for LSUHSC-NO to play its part in making HPC more accessible nationally.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

路易斯安那州立大学新奥尔良健康科学中心 (LSUHSC-NO) 的这个项目构建了一个可扩展的 26 节点高性能计算集群 (HPC)，名为 Tigerfish。 Tigerfish 为 LSUHSC-NO 研究人员提供不间断的本地 HPC 资源访问，以支持和加速他们的生物医学研究。该项目为新的和现有的 HPC 用户提供培训，以帮助他们轻松过渡到利用 Tigerfish 和其他国家可用的 HPC 资源，以满足其研究日益增长的计算需求。 Tigerfish 支持 LSUHSC-NO 多个学科的研究和教育，包括生物信息学、生物统计学、计算生物学、遗传学、计算基因组学、微生物学、神经学和蛋白质组学。该项目对社区具有更广泛的影响，包括培训下一代研究人员，作为老虎学者计划的一部分，为高中生提供接触 HPC 研究能力的机会。 Tigerfish 可作为支持高中、本科生和学士后学生暑期研究计划的计算资源，该计划为来自全国各地来 LSUHSC-NO 学习的学生提供暑期研究经验。 Tigerfish 为我们向地区历史悠久的黑人学院和大学提供了一个重要的平台，这些学院和大学缺乏自己的密集计算 HPC 资源。最近启动的生物信息学和基因组学项目能够将 Tigerfish 作为满足其高强度计算需求的重要资源，并作为新建立的 MS 生物医学科学-生物信息学轨道项目的资源。最后，Tigerfish 资源与 LSUHSC-NO 的开放科学网格共享，以在使 HPC 在全国范围内更容易获得方面发挥作用。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
