The HMS IT Web and Advanced Research Platforms (WARP) group serves the wider research community at Harvard Medical School. We provide services in two broad areas.

The Advanced Research Platforms ("Systems") team (formerly known as the West Quad Computing Group - WQCG) supports research lab Unix/Linux-based platforms, including design and maintenance of computational clusters, fileservers and Linux General Purpose and GPU workstations, as well as consulting services for Unix/Linux-based projects.  The WARP systems team works in close conjuction with other IT groups at HMS to ensure all of your advanced computing needs are met.

The Web Platforms team, in conjunction with the Office of Communications and External Relations (OCER), provides support for a wide array of HMS web properties, including the HMS flagship site, http://hms.harvard.edu, department/center/core sites, and lab websites. Services offered include hosting for self-managed websites, design and development of websites to be hosted on one of our Drupal CMS platforms, and web consulting services.
