IFOM is a cancer biomedical research center, with the ultimate goal of translating the discoveries in treatments and prevention strategies. Democratizing the access to the computational resources is the key step for our biomedical researchers to be independent in analyzing and exploring the data; for bioinformaticians to deliver novel computational approaches with ease; for the organization to have an organic, scalable and sustainable platform. This talk walkthrough on IFOM’s adoption of Open OnDemand: the challenges, the solutions and the cultural implications of this technological integration.
