Computational Resources

A large set of applications have been installed on the Bauer Core Linux cluster and are available to Harvard research groups. A few of the popular applications are:

BLAST (NCBI and WU)
EMBOSS
Primer3
QRNA and SNOSCAN
Bioperl
GMEP
Mathematica (Bauer Lab only)

Access to the Linux cluster requires a Bauer Core account. Research groups may subscribe to the cluster by paying a nominal fee of $100 per month.

The Scriptome is a set of tools to reformat, filter and merge data in common biological or tabular formats. The tools are designed to be used by non-programmers with minimal training.

Smoothing Spline Clustering is a statistical method for clustering time-series gene expression data. The method is particularly useful for clustering data from microarray experiments performed at several time-points — for example, over the course of development, during a drug treatment, or other time-course experiments.
