Supercomputer Project to Process Health Data in Izmir
The Turkish Institute for Health Data and Artificial Intelligence Applications plans to establish a high-performance system based in Izmir for the secure processing and research utilization of health data.
TÜZYE President Prof. Dr. Hakkı M. Karataş announced that they aim to establish a high-performance supercomputer infrastructure in Izmir to process Turkey's health data.
Technical Infrastructure and Integration of the Project
The high-performance computing unit, planned to be established within Ege University, is being designed to operate in compatibility with the national TRUBA infrastructure. The system aims to reach a vast data processing capacity by integrating with supercomputer networks in Europe.
Goal of Technological Independence in Healthcare
TÜZYE continues its work in line with the principles of technological independence in healthcare, clinical excellence, and national security. The project will play a critical role in the storage and anonymization processes of health data.
This initiative, highlighted at a meeting held at the Izmir University of Economics Medical Point Hospital, aims to support domestic solutions in health technologies by ensuring that data is shared securely with researchers.
