“It’s like upgrading from basic scissors to a precision surgical instrument that can install new parts,” graduate student Amun C. Patel said on running supercomputer simulations. “And this work would not have been possible without the NSF ACCESS allocations on Expanse at SDSC and Bridges-2 at PSC.”

Researchers from the University of California, Riverside used ACCESS allocations on Expanse at the San Diego Supercomputer Center and Bridges-2 at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center to reveal how “jumping genes” can transform gene-editing technologies. #HPC
