  • Three Tiers For Support

    Tier 1: Training & Technical Support:
    Research computing provides training for the use of our systems. The training includes onboarding, introductory sessions, and computational workshops. Additionally, we provide technical support to researchers through our online support request form and virtual office hours. Through these formats, we are able to assist researchers with system access issues and troubleshooting computational problems on our systems. These are services that are provided at no-charge to researchers. Tier 2: Consultation:
    Initial project consultation and assessment are provided at no charge. If determined
    feasible, the DAC team member will advise the researcher of the specific support

  • Mission

    Research Computing empowers UVA researchers to achieve more with cutting-edge computational resources. Our support team strives to create innovative solutions for researchers who need help solving complex optimization, parallelization, workflow, and data analysis issues. We build and maintain the University’s best computing platforms while educating the next generation of researchers on the power of advanced computing.

  • What is Research Computing?

    UVA Research Computing (RC) is a new program that aims to support computational biomedical research by providing advanced cyberinfrastructure and expertise in data analysis at scale. Our mission is to foster a culture of computational thinking and promote interdisciplinary collaboration in various data-driven research domains. We offer services related to high performance computing, cloud architecture, scientific programming and big data solutions. We also aim to promote computationally intensive research at UVA through collaborative efforts such as UVA’s own CADRE (Computation And Data Resource Exchange) and XSEDE (Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment).
    One of our driving philosophies is that researchers already have medical and scientific expertise, and should not have to become computing experts on top of that.
