IQVIA, Illumina, Mayo Clinic and Arc Institute harness NVIDIA AI and accelerated computing to transform $10 trillion healthcare and life sciences industry<\/strong><\/p>\n

NVIDIA tannounced new partnerships to transform the $10 trillion healthcare and life sciences industry by accelerating drug discovery, enhancing genomic research and pioneering advanced healthcare services with agentic and generative AI.
\nThe convergence of AI, accelerated computing and biological data is turning healthcare into the largest technology industry. Healthcare leaders IQVIA, Illumina and Mayo Clinic, as well as Arc Institute, are using the latest NVIDIA technologies to develop solutions that will help advance human health.
\nThese solutions include AI agents that can speed clinical trials by reducing administrative burden, AI models that learn from biology instruments to advance drug discovery and digital pathology, and physical AI robots for surgery, patient monitoring and operations. AI agents, AI instruments and AI robots will help address the $3 trillion of operations dedicated to supporting industry growth and create an AI factory opportunity in the hundreds of billions of dollars.
\n\u201cAI offers an exceptional opportunity to advance healthcare and life sciences with tools that help providers detect diseases earlier and discover new treatments faster,\u201d said Kimberly Powell, vice president of healthcare at NVIDIA. \u201cThe combination of NVIDIA\u2019s AI and accelerated computing capabilities with the expertise of industry leaders is poised to usher in a new era of medical and biological innovation and improve patient outcomes worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n

AI Foundry Services Boost Drug and Medical Device Development<\/strong>
\nIQVIA \u2014 a leading global provider of clinical research services, commercial insights and healthcare intelligence to the life sciences and healthcare industries \u2014 is using the NVIDIA AI Foundry service to build custom foundation models on its more than 64 petabytes of information, coupled with its deep domain expertise. The company is also developing agentic AI solutions, outfitted with NVIDIA AI Enterprise software including NVIDIA NIM™ microservices and NVIDIA Blueprints, that can speed research, clinical development and access to new treatments. IQVIA has been leading in the responsible use of AI, ensuring that its AI-powered capabilities are grounded in privacy, regulatory compliance and patient safety.
\n\u201cThis represents a significant leap forward in how we apply AI to healthcare and life sciences,\u201d said Bhavik Patel, president of commercial solutions at IQVIA. \u201cWe are excited to combine our industry-leading capabilities and a decade of experience in artificial intelligence with NVIDIA\u2019s advanced AI technologies to build new solutions powered by AI agents that are trained on world-class healthcare information and optimized for life sciences workflows. This collaboration will advance our mission to help our clients accelerate innovation and treatments to market.\u201d<\/p>\n

Illumina and NVIDIA Supercharge Next Era of Genomic Breakthroughs<\/strong>
\nIllumina, a global leader in DNA sequencing and informatics technologies, is working with NVIDIA to unlock the next generation of genomics for drug discovery and human health.
\nThis partnership will enable Illumina to use NVIDIA accelerated computing and AI toolsets for its multiomics analysis software and workflows. This will help make analysis of \u2014 and insights from \u2014 the human genome more accessible to researchers, pharmaceutical companies and other life sciences customers.
\nIllumina will offer DRAGEN analysis software on NVIDIA accelerated computing within the Illumina Connected Analytics platform. The integration aims to expand DRAGEN accessibility globally to wherever NVIDIA\u2019s computing platform exists.
\nOver the last five years, single-cell and spatial genomics have revolutionized drug discovery by providing unprecedented insights into cell understanding. To further expand the genomics market and help enable breakthroughs in target identification, clinical development and biomarker discovery, NVIDIA and Illumina plan to collaborate to progress multiomics data analysis on the Illumina Connected Analytics platform, in addition to developing new biology foundation models.
\nThe R&D community can more quickly and easily tap into rich genomic data by integrating NVIDIA RAPIDS™ accelerated data science software, included in the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform, with the NVIDIA BioNeMo™ platform\u2019s generative AI models and fine-tuning capabilities for proprietary datasets, and MONAI for spatial cell imaging workflows. Illumina and NVIDIA will work to make these tools accessible on the Illumina Connected Analytics platform.
\n\u201cOur ability to combine the power of AI with multiomics data is revolutionizing how we can understand disease,\u201d said Steve Barnard, chief technology officer at Illumina. \u201cBy combining Illumina\u2019s expertise in genomics data and analysis with NVIDIA\u2019s powerful AI platforms, we aim to enable pharma and biotech companies to unlock their own multiomics data to uncover transformative insights and improve success rates in developing lifesaving therapies.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mayo Clinic\u2019s AI-Powered Digital Pathology<\/strong>
\nPathology, an essential modality clinicians use to diagnose and determine treatments for many types of cancer and other serious and complex health conditions, is a historically slow and manual process. Mayo Clinic Digital Pathology platform, built from autonomous robotic labs and advanced imaging technology, offers a rich and unique dataset of 20 million whole-slide images with 10 million associated patient records to enable the creation of foundation models.
\nMayo Clinic and NVIDIA will massively accelerate the development of next-generation pathology foundation models. Mayo Clinic is planning to deploy newly available NVIDIA DGX™ Blackwell systems \u2014 which are based on the NVIDIA Blackwell architecture and offer 1.4TB of GPU memory per system, ideal for handling digital pathology whole-slide datasets \u2014 and NVIDIA\u2019s healthcare imaging platform MONAI.
\nMayo Clinic and NVIDIA are pioneering this work to serve as a cornerstone for future AI applications in drug discovery, and personalized diagnostics and treatments. The companies will continue to expand this collaboration with Mayo\u2019s clinical and AI expertise and NVIDIA Cosmos Nemotron vision language models and NIM microservices to provide more personalized healthcare experiences, along with predictive and efficient treatment strategies.<\/p>\n

Scaling Open Science Biology AI Models With Arc Institute<\/strong>
\nArc Institute, a Palo Alto, California-based research organization operating at the intersection of biology and machine learning, is collaborating with NVIDIA to develop and share powerful AI models and tools that advance biomedical discovery.
\nArc\u2019s biology and machine learning researchers are working with NVIDIA\u2019s engineers to scale the potential of foundation models for biology that can generalize across different modalities, like DNA, RNA and proteins, and advance applications for drug discovery, synthetic biology across multiple scales of complexity, disease and evolution research, and more.
\nAs part of the collaboration, NVIDIA has provided Arc Institute with expertise in large-scale model development; the NVIDIA BioNeMo platform running on NVIDIA DGX Cloud for easy-to-use, optimized training; and NVIDIA NIM microservices and Blueprints.<\/p>\n
