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…

Increasing Digital Equity In Partnership With Los Angeles County

While great strides have been made toward providing communities greater access to information technology, a digital accessibility gap still remains. In Los Angeles County, it is estimated that 416,000 households lack home internet service and 265,000 households are without a home computer. Notably, low-income neighborhoods and populations that are predominantly Black and Latinx are amongst some of the most impacted areas, with over 20% of households lacking a broadband connection in some areas. Beyond having broadband access, students – our next generation of workers – need to build digital literacy skills through exposure to emerging technology. To address this, the…

These documents are often expected to be manually transcribed into an electronic system error-free by a government employee to support time-sensitive tasks such as application intake, verification, enrollment, vendor management, and procurement. While agencies want to process these documents quickly to support their citizens, they’re often challenged with the following:1. Most applications require a variety of custom forms and verification documents (e.g. tax forms and utility bills) that are received at different times and in different formats (paper, images, etc.),…

Deploy Google Cloud In A Few Clicks With RAD Lab UI

Just over a year ago, we launched an open source solution, RAD Lab, to help spin up Google Cloud projects quickly and compliantly. RAD Lab serves as a Google Cloud-based sandbox environment to help technology and research teams advance quickly from research and development to production – all while incorporating feedback from the open source community along the way. RAD Lab has been rapidly adopted since its launch across our government and education customers, with technical users getting started quickly managing many workloads. Less technical users, however, still indicated challenges deploying cloud infrastructure.To that end, we’re announcing the next evolution…
