HealthAI hackathon
The main goals of the first HealthAI hackathon @ Stanford are:
- identify and solve real problems in medicine,
- facilitate team formation across the campus,
- introduce data science/AI to medical community,
- promote problem-based data engineering!
We encourage problems and solutions in the following tracks:
- Dermatology (supported by Advancing Innovation in Dermatology foundation)
- Ophthalmology
- Radiology
Our hackathon is supported by
and by Advancing Innovation in Dermatology, David M.C. Ju Foundation, Google Cloud Platform, Hacking Dermatology, LEO Pharma, LEO Innovation Lab, StartX Med.
