Hi all,



Details on the next Chai-T MeetUp as follows:



*Date:       Fri 26 May 2017*

*Time:      3pm – 5pm *

*Venue:   DHHS, 50 Lonsdale St, Room 18.23*

*Topic:      Azure High Performance Computing in Medicine*

*  By Artem Simdikov and Nadav Rayman from BizData*



Azure High Performance Computing (HPC)
<https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/solutions/big-compute/>, one of
Microsoft’s latest cloud offerings, enables hospitals and medical research
facilities to break past traditional hardware limitations. It provides
on-demand, scalable, parallel computing in the cloud. This enables
traditional workloads that used to take hours or days to be condensed into
minutes and seconds and completely turned off when they are not used;
something that is not possible with an on-premises cluster.



Some viable applications include:



• Clinical costing

• Genomic Research/Genome Sequencing

• Cardiac/Hemodynamic Simulation

• Physiological Neural Network Analysis

• Digital Microscopy processing



Artem Simdikov and Nadav Rayman from BizData will talk through the
technical considerations of embarking on an HPC journey and share case
studies of HPC in the industry.



*IMPORTANT: We would advise all subscribers of the Chai-T mailing list to
sign-up on MeetUp and join our group here

In order for us to organize the security pass, please RSVP on MeetUp for
this event before 10am Fri 26 May. If you don’t have your full name as on
