Harvard Professor Petros Koumoutsakos Leads Study to Replicate Supercomputer Resources in Public Cloud
Citadel Securities and Google Cloud announced joint sponsorship of a cutting-edge medical research program at Harvard University demonstrating the validity of a novel, minimally invasive approach to unclogging arteries via a large-scale simulation powered by the public cloud. By leveraging high performance computing (HPC) running on cloud infrastructure, Harvard researchers will be able to solve some of the world's most complex calculations and advance heart disease research.
Research lead Prof. Petros Koumoutsakos, of the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS), pioneered the concept of creating digital twins for therapeutic devices in circulatory diseases. Citadel Securities and Google Cloud are jointly funding and bringing top technical talent and technology together to demonstrate the power of scaled complex simulations for medical research.
