Initiated through collaborative efforts between NCI's Data Science and Information Technology Program (DSITP) and the Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (CBIIT), the High Performance Computing Special Interest Group (HPC SIG) aims to build a community around high performance computing with the shared purpose of raising scientific productivity.

titleHPC SIG Overview

HPC resources have become essential for many groups within NCI as identified in needs assessments from 2015 and 2016. Yet, groups remain unfamiliar with applications of HPC methods to cancer research, have limited access or experience programming for HPC, or do not know how to access available resources. Therefore, an outreach and education program to the intramural community is needed to increase awareness about HPC.

This effort is aimed to increase the number of computationally aware NCI staff as a first step towards a more computationally experienced workforce, as the rapidly increasing demand for this experience across the intramural community is very unlikely to be met given current staffing expectations. Further, fostering a community within NCI intramural research program while including others in the NIH will provide a forum for help, engagement, sharing of expertise, and a source for strategic and technical ideas and recommendations.
