Abstract :
Modem biological research is data intensive and relies on an efficient informatics infrastructure. Research on the genetic control of embryo development involves large volume image data requiring significant computing resources for reconstruction, mapping and analysis. This poster describes a demonstrator for delivering secure and transparent access to high-performance computing to the laboratory workbench using Grid technologies, in this case for 3D reconstruction from OPT microscopy.
