Building a resilient, scalable clinical genomics pipeline in the cloud


Researchers and Research IT leaders are invited to join the next AWS Education: Research Seminar



Session Overview:
Discover how the Human Genome Sequencing Center (HGSC) at Baylor College of Medicine rapidly validated and migrated to a hybrid-cloud solution for the monumental All of Us research program, funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). With its goal to deliver genomic data to a million participants, All of Us necessitates the rapid analysis of petabytes of patient genomic information. There are many challenges associated with handling this scale of next-generation sequencing data. Learn how the team at the HGSC surmounted these challenges to build a resilient, automated, and scalable genomics pipeline in the cloud with the flexibility to handle burst workloads in a cost-effective and secure environment.
