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 Middle.
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 help the research of bioinformaticians and researchers working for the Group with the goal of making predictive, prognostic or diagnostic computational fashions primarily based on the interactions of protein buildings. These fashions can be derived from superior molecular simulations due to the adoption of AI algorithms and the scientific knowledge obtainable within the Medical DataLakes of the 2 Institutes.
Synthetic intelligence makes it attainable to course of giant quantities of information, influencing the assorted levels of the event path and the supply of latest therapeutic options to sufferers along with efficient preventive instruments. The quantity of information obtainable 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 scientific trials. It’s because it’s attainable to make the identification of potential molecular candidates and interplay mechanisms a lot sooner and extra environment friendly. Due to AI and the flexibility to course of giant quantities of information, 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 scientific, molecular and multi-omics
info.
“For years, the Group has adopted the “data-driven” technique for analysis, care and governance of the institutes,” commented Annarosa Farina, Engineer, Chief Data Supervisor and Chief Information Officer IEO Group. Our research, from primary analysis to superior scientific analysis, are primarily based on large knowledge. Lenovo’s HPC infrastructure accelerates and streamlines knowledge processing and is crucial 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 completely different and complementary expertise. Moreover, I wish to specific our appreciation for the consultancy service supplied by Lenovo within the design section, which tremendously contributed to the success of the venture.”
“We’re extraordinarily proud to make our techniques obtainable to the IEO Monzino Group to speed up scientific analysis. Due to the flexibility of our options to handle big quantities of information 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 applying of AI on this space is a virtuous instance of the way it can have a constructive affect on our society, bettering the accuracy of diagnoses and therapies, and resulting in larger effectivity in healthcare actions. Right now Lenovo supercomputers are on the heart 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 greatest practices, implementing open supply software program options to enhance entry to {hardware} and optimize the analysis heart’s operational actions.
