CORE MISSION
Modern mechanobiology generates data at a scale that demands infrastructure. A single imaging experiment can produce several terabytes across thousands of files. Multiple microscopes run concurrently, creating continuous high-volume data streams that must be stored reliably, processed efficiently, and made accessible to researchers in real time.
The Computational Core was purpose-built to meet this challenge, designed from the ground up when MBI moved to its current research space.
Our team of IT professionals covers systems design, implementation and management, application development, and independent web and network administration —providing MBI researchers with direct access to specialist support without external dependency.
