UT MD Anderson Tech Stack
Comprehensive cancer center combining clinical care, research, and education at scale
UT MD Anderson operates as a large academic medical center exclusively focused on oncology, with 10,000+ employees distributed across clinical (healthcare), research, and operations. The tech stack reveals a dual-track operation: clinical systems (Epic, PACS, REDCap) handling patient data and imaging, paired with a research-grade analytics layer (Python, R, PyTorch, TensorFlow, JAX) for computational oncology. Active projects span drug screening assays, xenograft studies, and clinical research infrastructure, while pain points cluster around regulatory compliance, building modernization, and integrating fragmented data sources—typical of large institutions balancing legacy infrastructure with research innovation.
