International Partners

Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) is a multidisciplinary science and engineering research cneter, where talented scientists and engineers work together to answer the biggest questions facing humanity, from how to obtain affordable clean energy to protecting ourselves and our environment. ANL will support CompBioMed2 by directly supporting the application of machine learning techniques to drug design, drug resistance and other challenging biomedical research problems. Rutgers University is the flagship University of the State of New Jersey, and a member of the Association of American Universities (comprised of the top 62 North American Universities). Rutgers University will strengthen CompBioMed by directly supporting the use and adaptation of RADICAL-Cybertools within the the project.
