Salk Institute Leverages Google Cloud For Brain Research—And Launches Their Transformation To The Cloud
Research in the biological sciences has become increasingly data intensive, with vast datasets now routinely generated by genome sequencing, gene expression profiling, advanced microscopy, video imaging, and other high-throughput experimental techniques. These datasets have proven to be valuable in driving major scientific breakthroughs, but researchers face substantial challenges in keeping up with the storage, transfer, and processing of information. When researchers have to queue up for computational resources on conventional or supercomputers, their projects can grind to a halt. The future of biomedical research demands the flexible resources of cloud computing, where the fastest processors are available on demand and at…
