University 2016 PATSTAT subscribers already have access. If you aren’t a 2016 university subscriber, you may purchase (faculty) or be granted (PhD) access through Wharton Research Computing. So get in touch and we’ll get you set up.

About

With two decades of experience supporting research and more than a decade at The Wharton School, Hugh enjoys the challenges and rewards of working with world-class researchers doing Amazing Things with research computing. Robust and scalable computational solutions (both on premise and in The Cloud), custom research programming solutions (clever ideas, simple code), and holistic, results-focused approaches to projects are the places where Hugh lives these days. On weekends you're likely to find him running through the woods with a topo map and compass, orienteering.
