We are dedicated to battling COVID-19 on every front, from predicting and preventing, detection and diagnosis, and treatment to patient care. We seek to support researchers, the healthcare system, federal governments and ministries of health through our tools and educational resources.
Tools
The NVIDIA Parabricks Genomics Analysis Toolkit breaks down time and cost barriers, providing GPU-accelerated genomic analysis. Data that once took days to analyze can now be done in under an hour. Choose to run specific accelerated tools or full commonly used pipelines with outputs specific to your requirements.
NVIDIA Parabricks provides GPU-accelerated GATK, which performs secondary analysis of next-generation sequencing DNA data in under an hour. All researchers doing work in this field can request access to Parabricks free for 90 days to develop genomic insights faster.
Additional Parabricks Resources
To better analyze the spread of the disease and hospital bed resources across the U.S., the NVIDIA RAPIDS team has GPU-accelerated Plotly’s Dash data visualization tool to create a dashboard with overlays of the following datasets:
NGC is a hub of HPC and AI containerized software with tools to support coronavirus research across healthcare and scientific domains.
Folding@Home is a crowdsourced computing project for simulating protein dynamics, whose mission focuses on providing computing resources to support disease research. You can help researchers find potential cures by donating your unused computer power using the folding@home software.
Education/Expertise
Teaming up with leaders from the U.S. government, industry and academia, NVIDIA aims to accelerate research to detect, diagnose, and treat coronavirus. Researchers are invited to submit research proposals for evaluation and assignment to computing resources.
This technical webinar series will inform coronavirus researchers how to gain access to and use AI and HPC tools for genomics, computational chemistry, medical imaging, and NLP.
Learn real world examples of AI being applied to solve this pandemic and actions federal agencies and ministries of health can take to help mitigate the virus.
