Aussie researchers leverage compute power to analyse genomic data and match donors – ZDNet
CSIRO has touted advances in processing data to pinpoint the location of specific disease-causing genes in the human genome, while PathWest is matching bone marrow donors with candidates.
The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has announced a team of researchers have processed one trillion points of genomic data in its fight to pinpoint the location of specific disease-causing genes in the human genome.
Using VariantSpark, CSIRO’s artificial intelligence-based library for genomic data analysis, the researchers are looking for a deeper understanding of complex diseases by analysing large genomic datasets.
“Our VariantSpark platform can analyse t…
