Through the Spanish National Plan for Scientific Research, Technological Innovation and Development 2008-2011, CESGA has obtained financing (ICTS-2009-40) from the MICINN to provide access to researchers from the EU, the European Economic Area, and countries member of the Latin American Programme of Science and Technology for the Development (CYTED).

These grants aim to financially cover the access of individual researchers or research groups to ITCS-CESGA to carry out research projects, acquire knowledge or get training in technologies in use at the premises. 

The ICTS-CESGA programme offers two types of access:

• Access to off-site computing time (remote access). A total of 3 million CPU hours of Finis Terrae computing time is available to ICTS users in 2010.
  

• In-house research visits at CESGA. There are 18 in-house research visits offered through this call, each of a duration of up to 5 weeks.

Access can be requested by predoctoral students, PhDs or researchers with a minimum of three years of research experience.

The ICTS-CESGA Access Programme for 2010 is open and its first call deadline is April 12th, 2010. Proposals submitted until this date will be reviewed by an External Committee and the results of the selection will be notified in May 2010.

On April 7th 2010, the February 2010 CSD database actualisation was installed, containing 7380 new structures, which means a a total of 503348 entries in the database.

Cambridge Structural Database (CSD)

Usual users: Inorganic, Organic and Theoretical Chemist.
Potential users: Chemists and Physics , who work in synthesis and characterization of molecular structures, and need comparision with structures identified in Bibliography.

Access computer: svgd.cesga.es

USE GUIDE:
The complete Use Guide, as well as the additional information about thies software can be found at the CESGA's official webpage (http://www.cesga.es), under Computation> Applications > Scientific Databases > CSD, or directly in the following URL: http://www.cesga.es/php/mais_info_es.php?id=48
If you want to know the contentes of the new actualisation, in the program ConQuest (cq command) select the options View Databases > Entries in CSD version 5.31 (November 2009) or View Databases
Entries in CSD version 5.31 updates.

O día 20 de xaneiro de 2010, instalouse a versión 2009 update 2 da suite Schrödinger.

O Software de Schrödinger é unha suite de programas comerciais para a realización de diversos estudos de modelización e simulación molecular, especialmente aplicable ao estudo de biomoléculas, aínda que tamén ten potencial aplicación a outras disciplinas (nanomateriais, moléculas orgánicas).
As principais novidades pódense consultar no siguinte arquivo en formato pdf.

A Rede Galega de Bioinformática (RGB) adquiriu unha serie de licenzas, que pon a disposición da comunidade investigadora adscrita a algunha das institucións públicas galegas. A instalación do software e a xestión das licenzas será xestionada a través do centro de supercomputación de Galicia - CESGA.
