Abstract
The biomedical sciences are advancing at a tremendous rate. Some of the most notable recent accomplishments (such as the assembly of the human genome) have depended upon the use of high performance computing and data management (HPC). There are important areas of opportunity for the biomedical sciences to accelerate advances in knowledge and in practical medical treatments through the use of high performance computing. As we enter into the “century of biology” there are critical challenges in the areas of data organization, management, and analysis; simulation; and translational biomedical research. These challenges can be met only through investment in training, tools, and infrastructure that will enable greater use of high performance computing in biomedical research.
