photoacustic imaging and data sharing

Today's seminar was one dealing with photo acoustic imaging of the brain. The images are gathered by optical adsorption allowing viewing of exogenous targets such as carbon nanotubes and gold nanorods. In the end you have a 3D reconstructed image of the tissue.

The images are stunning but the data sets are HUGE. Combine this with the need to share this data with collaborators and you have a problem. Fortunately there is a way to handle this thanks to some Linux boxes and a way host them and make them available on the Internet. Finding fool-proof and robust linux hosting. Of course, finding the best hosting company is something that we needed help with, after all, most of the people here are doctors and life scientists with the odd mathematician tossed into the mix, which is why this guide was super helpful.

Do you have a lot of data to host and share? See what options await you and start saving money while you are at it.
