b'Lynn Langit, CEO of Lynn Langit Consulting, was one of the very first guest on \\u201cScreaming,\\u201d and now she is back, three hundred plus episodes later! Lynn\\u2019s repertoire is an impressive one. She was the first person to achieve AWS Community Hero as well as the equivalent designations at all three of the primary tier-one hyperscale cloud providers. Now as a consultant she is working across the cloud with an intensive focus on bioinformatics, quantum computing, and more.\\n\\nSince the last time Lynn came on the conversation has shifted from \\u201cshould we be using cloud\\u201d to \\u201chow should we use it?\\u201d Lynn\\u2019s research is primarily focused in bioinformatics, and most of that research is centered on cancer. So, \\u201chow should we use it\\u201d is at the forefront of her work. Since the COVID pandemic Lynn has had a front row to seat to the massive impact it has made on bioinformatics at large. She discusses the changes in the field, the dynamic ways that research and money interact, her rising interest in quantum computing, and how it has shaped her consultancy.'
