ABSTRACT:

High-performance computing and HPC technologies have long been employed in multiple roles in cancer research and clinical applications. The importance of HPC in medical applications has been recently highlighted with the announcement of the National Strategic Computing Initiative. Despite the broad impact of HPC on cancer, no venue has been present to specifically bring together the SC community around this topic. This BoF session will focus on bringing together those with an interest in furthering the impact of HPC on cancer, providing overviews of application areas and technologies, opportunities and challenges, while providing for in-depth interactive discussion across interest areas.
