NVIDIA, this is a brand that most people around the world would be acustomed to, on our laptops and desktops, the NVIDIA graphics card, where we spent time playing games on our laptops\/desktops or on our creative works for those in the creative industries such as photography, design etc.<\/p>\n
When I first heard of NVIDIA leading the world of healthcare with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and their hardware, I was surprised of NVIDIA\u2019s diversity, growth and expansion from the graphics card to their super computer and AI. Upon learning more when I visited NVIDIA website<\/a>, I discovered so much more on NVIDIA beyond their graphics card.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n NVIDIA VP of Healthcare, Kimberly Powell, visited Singapore recently for EmTech Asia<\/a> 2019. It was held at Marina Bay Sands Convention Centre, she gave an address to the delegates and attendees on 23rd\u00a0<\/sup>January 2019. Prior to that, Kimberly was at SGInnovate<\/a> on 22nd\u00a0<\/sup>January 2019 evening, where she also gave an address on the topic AI on Healthcare. I was present for both sessions as well as a round table media session with Kimberly Powell during EmTech Asia before she went on to present her keynote address at the conference.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n This topic on AI on Healthcare is a very niche and specialised technology sector on a very important industry around the world, the healthcare industry. Healthcare industry is gaining more importance worldwide, from providing better, faster and more precise healthcare services, to an increasing aging population in developed countries.<\/p>\n Writing on NVIDIA AI on Healthcare is a huge challenge, due to its complexity and jargon. After attending and listening to Kimberly\u2019s keynote sessions three times, along with some of the materials that were presented and planning my article flow, I decided to present NVIDIA AI on Healthcare for three different target groups \u2013 For the hardcore techies, for the healthcare professionals and healthcare industry and for the general public.<\/p>\n For the hardcore techies<\/strong><\/p>\n The NVIDIA Clara Platform is an open computer platform for intelligent instruments and analysis, a unified architecture for instrument pipelines, from Edge to Datacentre to Cloud, optimised compute engines, concurrent AI execution and real-time & remote advanced visualisation.<\/p>\n They have been powering and acceleraing the precision medicine computer pipeline, from data acquisition, data analysis to data integration, to medical imaging machines and services, genomics and drug discovery in various healthcare industry companies.<\/p>\n NVIDIA hardware and software are the basic building blocks for the healthcare industry to build upon them, implementing them into their own hardware, services, software and ecosystem.<\/p>\n
