Leveraging cloud for genomic data insights
Kelsey Florek, PhD, MPH Senior Genomics and Data Scientist Wisconsin State Laboratory of Hygiene December 16, 2021
Genomic data alone isn't all that useful!
- How many samples from this facility contain the variant?
- What percentage of sequences from this region of the state have this AR mechanism?
- How many samples from this outbreak are related?
- How many vaccine breakthrough cases have we sequenced?
- What is the mortality or symptoms associated with the new variant?
- Who does this sample/sequence belong to?
Create a system for integrating data from numerous sources, perform analytics, and generate insights.
- structured relationships between:
- sample data
- sequencing data
- epidemiological data
- automated data transfers and analysis tasks
- repository of raw data stored for future analytics
- foundation to build out connections for additional data collaborations
