To request an annual Matlab subscription through Digital Research Computing Core:
- Matlab is an annual subscription with a fee.
- Each subscription includes these toolboxes: Bioinformatics, Optimization, Statistics, and Signal Processing.
- The toolboxes are in a shared license pool - on a rare occasion you may need to wait to use one.
- Your Mac or PC must be connected to the Mass General Brigham computer network (at work or home/travel with VPN) for installation and for the software to work.
- Your Matlab and toolboxes can be installed on 2 machines and can be accessed from both, but not simultaneously.
- If Matlab will be installed on a Mass General Brigham build PC provide the asset/control number. To locate the number, look for a sticker on the body of your computer.
- An alternative to an annual subscription, you can also choose to use Matlab for free on our high performance cluster.
