Dr. Taha Kass-Hout, the chief medical officer and director of machine learning at AWS, spoke with Medical Design & Outsourcing as part of an ongoing series of conversations about cloud computing’s contributions to medtech and the potential ahead.

In the following interview, Kass-Hout explains how Moderna was born in the cloud and how the company has used cloud computing to scale mRNA technology.
