The
Bioinformatics Research Centre (BIRC) of SCE has signed an MOU
with Genvea Biosciences and HP to deploy Genvea's gRNA platform
on
the BIRC-HP S$12 million supercomputing cluster. This deployment
adds
another dimension to BIRC's supercomputing resources and complements
its existing software infrastructure. "This collaboration will
lead to a shorter
turnaround time needed to translate research results into diagnosis
kits and
clinical trials so that the benefits can reach patients as quickly
as possible"
said A/P Jagath Rajapakse, Deputy Director of BIRC in an interview
with
NewsRadio. Reported on MediaCorp NewsRadio dated 19 Nov 2003.
