Beat the Pandemic II: May 29-31
Please join OHSU and the OHSU Invent-a-thon for the next Massachusetts Institute of Technology COVID-19 Challenge as we bring together the broader community to help tackle the COVID-19 crisis. Applications due Tuesday, May 26.
In this 48-hour virtual hackathon, participants will form teams to generate solutions for the most pressing technical, social, and financial issues caused by the COVID-19 outbreak.
Your contribution to the Challenge can take the form of participant or mentor. Participants will form teams on Friday, May 29th to hone in on key problems and generate solutions, including proof of concepts, prototypes, and preliminary vision for execution. Throughout the weekend, teams will connect with mentors to refine their solutions. On Sunday, May 31st , teams will reconvene to present their work before a panel of expert judges.
After the weekend, the best ideas and teams will have the opportunity to co-develop and implement their solution with the support of our partners.
We are honored to partner with MIT and other organizations from across the health ecosystem on this virtual event and hope that you can join us for Beat the Pandemic II, Friday, May 29 – Sunday, May 31. For the last challenge they received more than 5000 applications!
