Electronic Resources

Electronic Laboratory Notebook – The Research Office has acquired a license for the Electronic Laboratory Notebook platform LabArchives. This will provide HSC labs a secure and easily accessible means for managing their research projects and data.

Computing Resources

HSC researchers have access to UNT’s North Texas Scientific Computing facility. The NTSC promotes the efficient use of a scientific-computing continuum — capabilities from PC to petascale — to help solve complex challenges in science and society.
