CryoSPARC
Description
CryoSPARC is a state of the art scientific software platform for cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) used in research and drug discovery pipelines.
An individual approach to running CryoSPARC on HiPerGator is to install it in a 'standalone' mode into a personal directory tree and run it inside a SLURM job while accessing its web front-end from a browser in Open OnDemand or via an ssh tunnel and using the job resources to run the analyses or configuring cluster access to submit jobs.
A group can also purchase a PubApps instance and collectively use a pre-configured instance of CryoSPARC set up by RC staff that allows shared access to group's HiPerGator resources (NCU+GPU) from a single allocation (account + qos) from the UF Network (Campus + VPN).
Each CryoSPARC install requires a license. See obtaining a license id document for details.
