The COVID-19 pandemic has brought the world's scientific community together in an effort to understand, track, forecast, test for, and find cures for the virus. Tens of thousands of researchers from public, private, and state bodies are working tirelessly to find effective treatment methods. Supercomputers provide scientists with additional capabilities: allowing them to accomplish in days or weeks the kind of epidemic forecasting and drug design capabilities that typically take months or years. The University of Texas at Austin's Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) is home to the most powerful collection of supercomputers at any university in the world. The center is one of the leading providers in the White House-led COVID-19 High Performance Computing (HPC) Consortium, supporting projects and researchers worldwide.
