The CQLS has experienced significant change in the last few years.  Throughout this we have increased CQLS staffing, developed new research collaborations, and continued CQLS services without interruption.  As we move forward the CQLS will be increasing community outreach and events including restarting the Fall Conference (November 22nd) and working with faculty committees and our users and community to direct the future of the CQLS.

The CQLS is composed of four interconnected functional groups:

CQLS Core Laboratory – Four laboratory staff run the services provided in Genomics Core, Shared Instrumentation Core, and Microscopy Core.  Recently the laboratory has been working with the Division of Research and Innovation to move CQLS into the new RELMS instrument billing system.

CQLS Research Computing HPC – Two CQLS staff run and maintain the CQLS HPC, the largest and most widely used computing cluster at OSU.  Recent upgrades outlined in this newsletter combine the CQLS HPC with other OSU HPC to create a consolidated OSU research computing cluster.

CQLS Bioinformatics and Data Science – Six CQLS staff consult on computational research and teach our computing and bioinformatics courses.  CQLS scientists consult on experimental design, grant proposals, research, and programming projects and are highly utilized in many labs across OSU.

CQLS Health Data Informatics – Led by Denise Hynes, the CQLS provides support and tools for analyzing health data including protected and secure data.

In this newsletter you will find information on CQLS changes and new services, research projects in the CQLS, spotlight on CQLS service, and information on upcoming CQLS events.
