We hope you now have more familiarity with key concepts, tools, and techniques that will enable more efficient, reproducible, and impactful computational research.


Housekeeping


Looking ahead

Workshop environment

  • BASH/RStudio workshop compute environment will be available until this coming Monday.

  • You can download files from the workshop environment from your terminal/command line window as below. (You will need to substitute your actual workshop username and type workshop password when prompted.)

    mkdir computational-foundations-workshop
    scp -r YOUR_USERNAME@bfx-workshop01.med.umich.edu:"CF*" computational-foundations-workshop

    Installing software locally

Continued training and support

Learning computational techniques is more like a process than a task. Resources to consider:

University of Michigan Resources

  • UM CoderSpaces “office hours” and UM CoderSpaces Slack workspace. (See “Useful Resources” section in above page for instructions on how to join and access the CoderSpaces Slack workspace.)
  • Upcoming UM Advanced Research Computing workshops.
  • Advanced Research Computing (ARC) at University of Michigan hosts a high-performance computing (HPC) platform called Great Lakes which combines high-end computers, fast/resilient storage, and pre-installed software. GreatLakes may be a good resource for folks who need to run the more compute intensive steps and a substantial block of compute and storage is subsidized by ARC making it essentially free to many researchers.
