Dr. Muhammad Abdul-Mageed

“Some of the work we’ve been able to do wouldn't even be possible without access to Sockeye. I hope UBC continues to invest in more digital research infrastructure.”

Dr. Anthony Wachs

“High-performance computing is evolving so fast, and this determines what we can do in research. This is extremely exciting. I couldn’t have anticipated it.”

Dr. Phillip Richmond

“When it comes to diagnosing, and sometimes treating, rare genetic diseases, it takes a multidisciplinary team. It’s rewarding to know that I can help patients and their families by working behind the scenes to find answers buried in the data.”
