I work on bioIT, which combines IT technologies with genomic data analysis. In modern genomics and genetics, next generation sequencers tend to produce tons of sequencing data. In order to make sense of these large volumes of data, advanced computing infrastructure will be needed and most often, high performance computing systems need to be set up. This is where IT meets life science.
I have recently built a High Performance Computing (HPC) system with 600+ cores, 2TB memory and over 100TB storage, powering genomic data processing in a CAP/CLIA accredited environment. This system takes advantage of the powerful capabilities of Linux and Infiniband technologies to handle the complexities of large scale genomic data, ensuring the quality and accuracy we want to achieve in human genetic testing.
