Ellison Institute uses AI to accelerate cancer diagnosis and treatment Sponsored by Oracle
“I asked a pathologist, ‘If there’s one thing a computer could do for you, what would it be?’ He said, ‘I want it to tell me where to look,’” says Dr. Dan Ruderman, director of analytics and machine learning at the institute and assistant professor of research medicine at the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California. “Digital pathology is how the medical field is going to catch up with Silicon Valley.
Facilitated through the Oracle for Research program, the Ellison Institute’s extended research team also includes Oracle computing experts and technology resources.The Ellison Institute is building a new, wireless 5G-enabled building in West Los Angeles that will be home to a community outreach team, a health policy think tank, educational sessions—even an art gallery.
To handle its intensive, scalable computing needs, the institute is using Oracle Autonomous Database, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure bare metal compute instances, and Oracle Cloud storage, as well as Oracle Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect for network connectivity. Dr. Ruderman says the institute stopped worrying about scaling issues once it started using Oracle Autonomous Database. “Now I can think more about science and less about technology,” he says.
