Hosted by the Lucy Family Institute for Data & Society and the Berthiaume Institute for Precision Health, the Health Data & Analytics Challenge (HDAC) is an opportunity for student teams to tackle real-world datasets related to health with the goal of identifying gaps in access that may affect health outcomes and recommend possible interventions to improve health and the quality of services in various communities.
Over the course of a month, participants will design a project that utilizes one or two of several provided datasets, with guidance and feedback from a panel of graduate students and faculty. The challenge culminates in project presentations to peers, faculty, and industry leaders.
At this session, the top 10 teams of students will present their data, insights, results and conclusion.
The winning team will receive $2500 and two runner-up teams will each receive $1000.
