Welcome to the Library's Scientific Software Hub. Here you can find information and access to all the software that is licensed to Weill Cornell Medicine faculty, staff and students, or is freely available. The library is also assisting groups of users who would like to share the licensing costs of specialized software - use the Suggest New Software form to inquire about new software costs or cost sharing. We also offer assistance in gaining access to data through many online repositories. For any questions or issues, please email scisoft@med.cornell.edu.
