At-a-Glance

Harnessing AI for medicine

The Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), the University of São Paulo (USP), and the University of Coimbra are joining forces with Lenovo to transform the use of AI in medicine.

With Lenovo ThinkStation PGX as the infrastructure backbone, the joint research project, ObjectColumns, aims to unlock the secrets of how the human brain interacts with the world—creating the basis of more efficient, robust, relevant AI models for use in medicine.

The challenge

  • •       Complex research algorithms require higher volume of processing than traditional AI architectures allow
  • •       Extremely sensitive data made security and privacy essential

The solution

  • •       AI-ready Lenovo ThinkStation PGX workstations, accelerated by the NVIDIA GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip, act as key infrastructure
  • •       Kept pace seamlessly with growing capacity requirements and increasing complexity

The outcome

  • •       Delivers high performance and peace of mind
  • •       Prevents research delays and boosts cost-efficiency
  • •       Brings bio-inspired AI development within reach
