BruinCloud Researcher Enablement Series – Session 3: Big Data and Applied AI for Research

May 29 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Session 3 of the BruinCloud Research Enablement Series focuses on working with large datasets and applying AI tools to research workflows using Google Cloud Platform services available through BruinCloud.

This session is designed for researchers working with data-intensive projects who want to better understand how to store, query, and analyze large datasets while integrating AI into their workflows.

Participants will explore how services such as BigQuery and Agent Platform (formerly Vertex AI) enable scalable data analysis and support applied AI use cases across disciplines.
