Associate Professor Gail Rosen serves as the primary investigator on the project “MRI: Proteus++: Enabling Data-Intensive Computing at Drexel University”, recently funded by the National Science Foundation. The project is funded at $542,740 for three years. The Major Research Instrumentation Program (MRI) through NSF funds the acquisition of major scientific equipment at universities and STEM research organizations. This project will “massively expand the data-intensive computational capabilities of Proteus, Drexel University’s existing shared high-performance scientific CPU-only cluster,” according to the project summary.
This project is a collaborative effort that includes co-investigators Antonios Kontsos from the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics, Dr. Hasan Ayaz of the School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems, and Dr. Brigita Urbanc of the Department of Physics.
Congratulations to Dr. Rosen and her colleagues!
