Dr Paul Walsh presented a full paper on behalf of ClouDx-I for eChallanges 2013 in Dublin 9th October 2013, see https://www.echallenges.org/e2013/default.asp. The paper was very well received receiving enthusiastic applause and numerous questions from the audience. The paper entitled “Democratising Life Science with Cloud Computing” outlines how the cloud can best be leveraged to support molecular diagnostics and related activities in life science. It discussed both opportunities and challenges and presented results of a pathogen sequencing project that used cloud computing to dramatically reduce the research cycle time.
