Center for High Performance Computing
Research Computing and Data Support for the University Community
In addition to deploying and operating high-performance computational resources and providing advanced user support and training, CHPC serves as an expert team to broadly support the increasingly diverse research computing and data needs on campus. These needs include support for big data, big data movement, data analytics, security, virtual machines, Windows science application servers, protected environments for data mining and analysis of protected health information, advanced networking, and more.
If you are new to the CHPC, the best place to learn about CHPC resources and policies is our Getting Started page.

The International Neuromodulation Registry: A Graph Database Representation for Neuromodulation Therapies

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is a form of Neuromodulation therapy, often used in patients with many different types of neurological disorders. However, DBS is a rare treatment and medical centers have few patients who qualify for DBS, meaning that most DBS studies are statistically underpowered and have chronically low n values. Here, we present a platform designed to combine disparate datasets from different centers. Using this platform, researchers and clinicians will be able to aggregate patient datasets, transforming DBS studies from being center-based to being population-based.
Graph databases are increasing in popularity due to their speed of information retrieval, powerful visualization of complex data relationships, and flexible data models. Our Neo4j DBMS is physically located in the University of Utah Center for High-Performance Computing (CHPC) Protected Environment on a virtual machine, giving needs-based flexibility for both memory and storage.
This patient registry has been build on a next-generation graph database. Through a formal, but flexible, data model and ontology, this platform is able to harmonize disparate data types and allows for simple visualizations of complex data types.
Anticipated Use Cases: Cohort discovery, data and imaging download, exploratory analysis.
