This Health Hackathon aims to foster innovative multidisciplinary team science using artificial intelligence and machine learning. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) provide an exceptional opportunity to accelerate and revolutionize human health. The Hackathon will nurture collaborations across different fields and includes wearable devices, smart phones, other sensor-related technology, genetics, images and electronic health records. It is open to all students and research scientists including bioinformatics, computer programming, bio-statistics, and other computer programming related disciplines. A key component of the Hackathon is team development which includes students and researchers at all levels of the research process.
AI and machine learning approaches have a variety of applications throughout all stages of the translational science spectrum. They require interdisciplinary collaborations to support well-defined projects emphasizing development of machine intelligence-based systems, emerging tools, and modern technologies for diagnosing disease and health conditions.
