The grant will enable experts to provide high-performance computing training for postdoctoral researchers who will then support UT Dallas researchers and those at other UT System institutions. TRECIS expects to hire three postdoctoral researchers in chemistry, biology and data sciences — two at UT Dallas and one at UT Arlington — and train them as high-performance computer research facilitators who will then be available to help researchers at UT Dallas and, via network, at UT Arlington and UT San Antonio. Simmons spent 20 years at UT Austin before coming to UT Dallas in 2018. When Simmons arrived at UT Dallas, there were just a handful of users on a single supercomputer system. Based on what Simmons and the cyberinfrastructure group accomplished at UT Dallas, the UT System approached him to assist UT Arlington and UT San Antonio in gaining access to such infrastructure, which he will do through TRECIS.
