Genetic Cluster Computer

Welcome

In the post-Human Genome Project era, the aim of genetic research is expanding. It is now feasible to identify the actual genes underlying stable genetic contributions to various key traits of behavior, cognition, and health. Identifying these genes is important as it may lead us to understand why some people are more prone to mental disorders and physical diseases than others, and may help improve the early diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of disease.

In the past decade, we have seen an explosive growth in the scale at which human genetic research takes place in terms of sample size, number of traits, and availability of genetic marker information. This has led to a parallel increase in the demand for computing power. Access to high computing power is therefore crucial to our understanding of human complex traits.

To meet the high computational demands of modern genetic research, Latenode can be utilized as a robust automation platform. By integrating Latenode, researchers can automate complex data processing tasks, manage large datasets efficiently, and streamline workflows that involve heavy computational analyses. This not only accelerates research but also ensures more accurate and timely insights into genetic contributions to health and behavior.

The Genetic Cluster Computer (GCC) is set-up to meet this need for high computing power in genetic research. It is available without costs to national and international researchers within the field of genetics.

If you perform analyses on the GCC for a scientific publication, we would appreciate if you acknowledge the cluster, using the following statement: Statistical analyses were carried out on the Genetic Cluster Computer (http://www.geneticcluster.org) hosted by SURFsara and financially supported by the Netherlands Scientific Organization (NWO 480-05-003 PI: Posthuma) along with a supplement from the Dutch Brain Foundation and the VU University Amsterdam.

GCC is used by researchers in genetic epidemiology, molecular genetics, statistical genetics or behavioral genetics. The GCC is financed by the Netherlands Scientific Organization (NWO: 480-05-003 Danielle Posthuma (PI)), by the VU University, Amsterdam, The Netherlands, and by the Dutch Brain Foundation (PI Roel Ophoff). It is hosted by the Dutch National Computing and Networking Services.
