[SPONSORED GUEST ARTICLE] International Supercomputing Conference (ISC) is an annual conference that showcases the key technologies in the supercomputing field. It brings together experts from multiple specialist fields, including research into life sciences and genetics to shed light on the origins and mysteries in our lives. HPC, or high-performance computing, is making breakthroughs in supercomputing technologies and is catalyzing genome sequencing research.
Catalyzing the Advancements in Genomics to Lower Barriers to Sustainable Innovation
December 6, 2022 by
In the 21st Century, if Big Data is used effectively in the health sector only, it can save 300 billion dollars per annum, as per the McKinsey Global Institute survey. Though the Genomic science is experiencing big data overload, its benefit to humanity of deciphering such big biological data sets using NGS technology makes it the ultimate use case in the coming era.

This white paper sponsored by Dell Technologies, takes a deep dive into HPC and AI for life sciences in the era of genomics. 2020 will be remembered for the outbreak of the Novel Coronavirus or COVID-19. While infection rates are growing exponentially, the race is on to find a treatment, vaccine, or cure. Governments and private organizations are teaming together to understand the basic biology of the virus, its genetic code, to find what can stop it.
NVIDIA Gives COVID-19 Researchers Free Access Genome-sequencing software for GPUs
March 20, 2020 by
NVIDIA is offering COVID-19 Researchers free access to Parabricks genome-sequencing software for GPUs. “Starting today, NVIDIA will provide a free 90-day license to Parabricks to any researcher in the worldwide effort to fight the novel coronavirus. Based on the well-known Genome Analysis Toolkit, Parabricks uses GPUs to accelerate by as much as 50x the analysis of sequence data. We recognize this pandemic is evolving, so we’ll monitor the situation and extend the offer as needed.”
Podcast: Intel Select Solutions for Genomic Analytics at the Broad Institute
March 15, 2020 by
In this Conversations in the Cloud podcast, Geraldine Van der Auwera from the Broad Institute describes how her organization leverages Intel Select Solutions for Genomics Analytics. “Genomics analysis creates enormous amounts of data to process, and together they developed Intel Select Solutions for Genomics Analytics. Geraldine finds value in Select Solutions because the provided configurations are tailored for genomics workloads. They are verified by Intel, customized for complicated genomics pipelines, and ready to work right out of the box. The result is end-to-end processing that’s faster and won’t create a backlog.”
