The GPU firm is positioning the healthcare-specific Cambridge-1 system to address evolving AI needs in life sciences, including the processing of massive datasets.
Called AtacWorks, the software removes noise from sequencing so low-cell-count, low-coverage, or low-quality ATAC-seq data can still be useful.
Nvidia to Embed High-Performance Compute System Into Oxford Nanopore PromethIon Sequencers
The companies say that the integration of the Nvidia DGX Station A100 will support "real-time analyses" of long-read DNA and RNA sequences.
At its annual GPU conference this week, Nvidia said it is teaming with Oxford Nanopore, GSK, AstraZeneca, and PetaGene to advance bioinformatics and drug discovery.
Nvidia customers in the US and the Middle East expect that the newly introduced A100 servers will accelerate research into the novel coronavirus.
