How NIH scientists unlocked cardiovascular disease insights using AWS
Scientists at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) recently uncovered how a structure known as low-density lipoprotein (LDL), which transports “bad” cholesterol through the bloodstream, interacts with its receptor molecule to enter cells—information that has eluded researchers for decades. The findings could lead to more personalized treatments for cardiovascular disease and were enabled by cutting-edge high performance computing (HPC) infrastructure from AWS.
