Attention healthtech innovators, clinicians, and data scientists...
Would you like to build the future of health? If so, this event is for you. Health Universe is hosting a month long asynchronous hackathon, starting August 1st and ending August 31st!
This is your chance to network, experiment with cutting-edge AI, gain professional recognition, win substantial cash prizes, and play a key role in propelling healthcare into the future.
Yes, this means you!
Health Universe is designed with you — the researchers, data scientists, and clinicians — in mind.
We provide the cloud infrastructure & community collaboration you need to bring your research ideas to life. With our platform, you can easily create and deploy python apps, and we host them and make them available to anyone with an Internet connection 24/7.
The apps you develop can be accessed by researchers and clinicians right from their web browsers. Your solutions could play a key role in democratizing AI, accelerating innovation, and improving patient care all over the world. Think of the possibilities!
From advancing drug discovery and cancer research to analyzing population health, enhancing administrative workflows, crafting decision support systems, developing nutrition calculators, or designing wellness apps—your creativity is the only limit!
Winning teams not only gain recognition at our monthly demo day, featured on our website, and our social media accounts but also take home substantial cash prizes:
This hackathon is asynchronous, which means you have the freedom to form teams and execute projects at your own pace, at your own convenience! And if you don't want to join a team that's ok too, you can enter as a solo participant.
It's time to bring your innovative idea to life. Utilize our support resources to develop your app using Streamlit or FastAP Leverage OpenAl, scikit-learn or whatever libraries you want.
This event is more than a competition—it's a collaborative playground for problem-solving, encouraging the conception and development of ground-breaking open-source health tech solutions. It’s your chance to integrate your knowledge and experience with generative AI and other technologies to create solutions to the pressing issues we face today, across the spectrum of health, from bench to bedside.
An AI-powered app that accelerates the drug discovery process by analyzing large datasets to identify potential candidates.
An app that utilizes patient data and genetic information to predict the risk of developing specific cancers, aiding in early detection and prevention.
An app that offers evidence-based recommendations to healthcare professionals for diagnosis, treatment selection, and patient management.
An app that enables patients to track vital signs and symptoms from home, providing real-time data to healthcare providers for remote monitoring.
An app that combines chatbots, therapy modules, and mental health tracking to support individuals in managing their mental well-being.
An app that seamlessly integrates with existing EHR systems, enhancing data visualization and workflows for healthcare providers.
An app that empowers patients with personalized health information, resources, and interactive tools for active involvement in healthcare decision-making.
An app that employs AI algorithms to match eligible patients with relevant clinical trials, improving recruitment efficiency.
An app that assists patients with chronic conditions through personalized care plans, medication reminders, and symptom tracking.
An app connecting patients with healthcare providers, enabling search, comparison, and appointment booking based on location and reviews.
We value innovative approaches, novel ideas, and creative problem-solving. Solution to practical, wide-spread problems are valued. But you don't have to be original, you can base your app off existing, validated, methodologies.
Demonstrate the potential impact of your app on the research community or healthcare industry. Show how it addresses current challenges and unlocks innovation or improves patient outcomes.
Ensure it's intuitive to navigate and provides a seamless, engaging user experience.Your code should be well-structured, and error free. While not required, demonstrate an effective use of machine learning.
Ensure the clarity and completeness of your app's documentation. Show us your high-quality, readable code, including comments and documentation within the codebase.
Create a quality 3-minute video showcasing your app's features and potential healthcare applications. We're looking for clear communication, effective demonstration, and persuasive presentation skills.
Don't worry if you're not a seasoned programmer—this contest is for everyone! We are assembling diverse teams that include strong programmers who can help turn your innovative ideas into reality.
Plus, with tools like GPT-4 at your disposal, you can rapidly prototype apps without having to be a coding expert. Remember, your unique insights, creativity, and problem-solving abilities are just as crucial as coding skills in this challenge!
