Personalized Healthcare with High Performance Computing in the Cloud
by Rich Brueckner from High-Performance Computing News Analysis | insideHPC on (#4DW7Y)
Wolfgang Gentzsch from the UberCloud gave this talk at the HPC User Forum. "The concept of personalized medicine has its roots deep in genomic research. Indeed, the successful completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003 marked a critical milestone for the field. That project took $3 billion over 13 years. Today, thanks to technological progress, a similar sequencing task would take only about $4,000 and a few weeks. Such computational power is possible thanks to cloud technology, which eliminates the barriers to high-performance computing by removing software and hardware constraints."
