Research informatics company Flywheel has launched a collaborative venture with Google to establish a cloud-based MRI research center at Columbia University in New York City.
The company's medical imaging research platform has been used at Columbia's Mortimer B. Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute since June 2017. The partnership with Google now migrates the program to Google Cloud, according to Flywheel.
The launch is the first step toward establishing a cloud-based MR research center, which will connect the institute, the Irving Medical Center, the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, the Nathan Kline Institute for Psychiatric Research, and the New York State Psychiatric Institute, the company said.
