Milan, 09 June 2025 – Lenovo will present the IEO Monzino Group with a excessive efficiency computing system to speed up scientific analysis in oncology and cardiology on the European Institute of Oncology and the Monzino Cardiology Heart.
Lenovo will ship the IEO Monzino Group with a 475 TFlops HPC system, consisting of Lenovo ThinkSystem SR645 V3 and ThinkSystem SR685a V3 servers, powered by NVIDIA H200 GPUs, the primary GPUs to supply 141 gigabytes (GB) of HBM3e reminiscence at 4.8 terabytes per second (TB/s). The infrastructure is supported by a Lenovo ThinkSystem DE6400F storage system for superior knowledge administration.
The supercomputer will assist the research of bioinformaticians and researchers working for the Group with the intention of making predictive, prognostic or diagnostic computational fashions primarily based on the interactions of protein constructions. These fashions can be derived from superior molecular simulations because of the adoption of AI algorithms and the medical knowledge out there within the Scientific DataLakes of the 2 Institutes.
Synthetic intelligence makes it attainable to course of massive quantities of knowledge, influencing the varied phases of the event path and the supply of recent therapeutic options to sufferers along with efficient preventive instruments. The quantity of knowledge out there and made suitable by AI is making it attainable to speed up the method of choosing molecules which might be subsequently studied in additional depth within the growth of medical trials. It’s because it’s attainable to make the identification of potential molecular candidates and interplay mechanisms a lot quicker and extra environment friendly. Because of AI and the flexibility to course of massive quantities of knowledge, the Group’s specialists can now consider more and more personalized options.
To handle these points, the IEO Monzino Group researchers have developed AI algorithm software program platforms to facilitate entry to superior bioinformatics instruments that require excessive efficiency and computing energy. This led to the collaboration with Lenovo, which designed an HPC infrastructure for the IEO Monzino Group that features machine studying fashions to extract medical, molecular and multi-omics
data.
“For years, the Group has adopted the “data-driven” technique for analysis, care and governance of the institutes,” commented Annarosa Farina, Engineer, Chief Info Supervisor and Chief Knowledge Officer IEO Group. Our research, from fundamental analysis to superior medical analysis, are primarily based on huge knowledge. Lenovo’s HPC infrastructure accelerates and streamlines knowledge processing and is essential to implementing our technique. The multidisciplinary method is essential for our analysis work: the workload parameters and the AI algorithms to be adopted are outlined with the contribution of researchers, medical doctors, bioinformaticians and knowledge scientists, who all collectively collaborate within the extraction of the “insights” of those embellishments, with totally different and complementary abilities. Moreover, I need to specific our appreciation for the consultancy service supplied by Lenovo within the design section, which drastically contributed to the success of the venture.”
“We’re extraordinarily proud to make our programs out there to the IEO Monzino Group to speed up scientific analysis. Because of the flexibility of our options to handle enormous quantities of knowledge and speed up evaluation, Lenovo’s Excessive Efficiency Computing will contribute to advances in customized medication,” commented Alessandro de Bartolo, Basic Supervisor, Italy, Infrastructure Options Group, Lenovo. The appliance of AI on this space is a virtuous instance of the way it can have a constructive affect on our society, enhancing the accuracy of diagnoses and therapies, and resulting in larger effectivity in healthcare actions. At this time Lenovo supercomputers are on the middle of scientific analysis, in essentially the most prestigious Italian and world facilities.”
The venture was carried out with the associate Lenovo HPCNow! and Lenovo Skilled Providers, which supplied technical and organizational finest practices, implementing open supply software program options to enhance entry to {hardware} and optimize the analysis middle’s operational actions.
