Research computing is essential across biomedical research, especially in medical imaging and radiology where ML+AI are rapidly disrupting the field. But while the research frontier continues moving forward, the computing infrastructure of research and healthcare institutions tend to lag behind. At the Boston Children’s Hospital, we are closing the gap by developing the ChRIS Research Integration Service (ChRIS for short). ChRIS is an MIT-licensed platform for medical computation, enabling the use of research software in clinical practice, while maximizing the utility of our hybrid-cloud resources. This talk will be a discussion of the cloud-native software ecosystem from the perspective of a medical researcher of a teaching hospital. We will consider the advantages of adopting cloud-native software and Kubernetes for research and healthcare institutions, as well as the challenges in doing so.
