How GCP is Powering Next Generation Biomedical Research
summary
Google Cloud hosts NIH datasets under the NIH Strides initiative, enabling large-scale analytics: the All of Us: 1 million participants program supplies genomic, survey and biospecimen data; TCGA uploads moved ~2 PB to the cloud for analysis. Built tools include the Beacon Network real-time mutation search. Reported outcomes: some users see ~10x cost reductions and 100x larger workable datasets. Remaining bottlenecks are interpretation cost and sequencing price; cloud adoption increases security hygiene and hybrid models for sensitive data.
