Howard University

Howard University boasts strengths in computer science education, technology transfer, information security, algorithms, and distributed computing, particularly in the application of distributed high performance computing to solve computational science problems in biology, physics, and chemistry. Along with creating a course in computational biology and strengthening the science of algorithms, Howard researchers will help SoI team members create a model for attracting and retaining a diverse range of students into the STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) pipeline.
