Douglas Taylor, Professor and Chair of Biology
In the Taylor Lab, students and post-docs work with biology professor Doug Taylor to study population genetics and molecular evolution.
“[UVACSE experts] were valuable partners in this project, taking the time to meet with us and develop the tools for our custom needs. Simply put, we could not have completed this analysis without them,” said Douglas Taylor, professor and chair of the Department of Biology. more >
TechnologyShort Takes from the GroundsProfessor Andrew Grimshaw discusses how UVACSE – the UVa Alliance for Computational Science and Engineering — came about and how it benefits schools across the University. The University will establish a center with two wings – one for the humanities and social sciences, and one for the natural and physical sciences – but with one mission: to provide faculty with opportunities to collaborate with one another, as well as with students and staff who are fluent in the methods of computationally intense inquiry.

UVACSEThe U.Va. Alliance for Computational Science & Engineering, or UVACSE, was formed in spring 2008 to transform computational research across the Grounds. As the need for computational techniques in all disciplines increases, UVACSE serves researchers through education, consultation, and the management of shared resources. UVACSE has had a direct impact on hundreds of students, faculty, staff, and post-docs. UVACSE’s services have dramatically expanded the computational resources available for research and accelerated dozens of computational science projects. Aided by staff support members (Tiger Teams), researchers take advantage of computation expertise and resources for a range of projects in areas such as engineering, physics, astronomy, biology, biochemistry, environmental sciences, economics, and English.
