Hoffman2:Modules

Back to all things Hoffman2

Environmental modules allow users to dynamically modify their shell environment (e.g., $PATH, $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.) in order to support a number of applications installed on the Hoffman2 Cluster. CCN supports several modules on Hoffman2 including: AFNI, ANTs, Caret, FreeSurfer, FSL, ITKGray, ITK-SNAP, and MRIcron
