The Lemhi supercomputer, unveiled through a partnership between the state’s public research universities and Idaho National Laboratory, dramatically expands high-performance computing resources for researchers at Idaho’s public universities. Serving the University of Idaho, Boise State University, and Idaho State University, Lemhi replaces the older Falcon system with significantly faster and more efficient computing power, enabling scientists to tackle complex simulations and large-scale data analysis across disciplines—from artificial intelligence and energy systems to health sciences and natural resources. By enhancing research capabilities, fueling collaborations, and strengthening Idaho’s competitiveness for federal funding, Lemhi represents a major leap forward in the state’s research infrastructure.
