Scaling Gene Therapy Research with Argo Workflows and Hera - Flaviu Vadan, Dyno Therapeutics

The use of cloud native tools such as Kubernetes and Argo Workflows is becoming increasingly popular across various domains, including gene therapy. These tools enable efficient and scalable management of complex computing tasks, allowing researchers and engineers to focus on their core product rather than infrastructure management. This has led to improved productivity, increased innovation, and increased operational efficiency. At Dyno Therapeutics, we use our proprietary engine called Dynet to generate and consume massive amounts of data to design and test vectors used for the delivery of gene therapy. Dyno leverages Kubernetes, Argo Workflows, and Hera to define, orchestrate, and execute complex workflows used for vector design, biological data processing, and large scale data ingestion. This talk will showcase novel applications of Argo Workflows and Kubernetes from a field as novel as gene therapy, and illustrate how tech products, such as Hera, from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation ecosystem help scale gene therapy research and engineering efforts.
