Speaker

Ricardo Henao, PhD; Associate Professor of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, Associate Professor in Surgery, Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering; Associate Director of Clinical Trials AI, Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI) Jay Stotler; Senior Information Technology Analyst, Duke Health Technology Solutions Aby Veiga; Assistant Dean of Computing Services, Duke University School of Medicine Danny Williford; Director of Computing Support, Duke University School of Medicine John Bradley; Software Engineer, Duke University School of Medicine Hosted by Shelley Rusincovitch, MMCi; Managing Director, Duke AI Health
This one-hour seminar will introduce the Protected Research Compute Cluster (PRCC), a high-performance, secure computing environment designed for projects involving protected health information (PHI) and other sensitive data. The PRCC is part of the School of Medicine Research Enclave, and it will replace PACE (the Protected Analytics Computing Environment). We'll discuss the system architecture, how the PRCC will replace the Protected Analytics Computing Environment (PACE) with expanded capacity, increased reliability, and a scalable technology platform, and demonstrate what research teams can expect from the new PRCC. This seminar will be especially useful for current PACE users, School of Medicine investigators and research teams, and other Duke faculty, staff, and students working with protected health information (PHI) and other sensitive data.
