King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) invites researchers from across the Kingdom to submit proposals for "COVID-19” related research
King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) invites researchers from across the Kingdom to submit proposals for COVID-19-related research. Recognizing the urgency to address global challenges related to the COVID-19 pandemic through scientific discovery and innovation, the University’s Supercomputing Core Laboratory (KSL) is making computing resources available to support research projects including the flagship Shaheen II supercomputer, Ibex cluster, and its expert scientists, who
.will provide support, training and consultancy to maximize impact
Topics may include but are not limited to: understanding the virus on a molecular level; understanding its fluid
dynamical transport; evaluating the repurposing of existing drugs; forecasting how the disease spreads; and finding ways to stop or slow.down the pandemic
Through 30 June 2020, up to 15% of these resources will be reserved for fast-tracking competitive COVID-19 proposals though
.the KAUST Research Computing Allocation Committee
.Thereafter, such proposals remain welcome and will be considered in the standard process
