MedHacks is a student run hackathon held in partnership with the Johns Hopkins Hospital. We are the largest healthcare focused hackathon in the U.S., with 1000+ clinicians, engineers, scientists, and innovators participating this year. This year, we are focusing our hackers specifically on patient adherence and quality care during a pandemic, data driven personal healthcare, and interventions for aging in place.

Requirements

Please submit a 5 minute video alongside filling out the Devpost submission form with the required sections (Inspiration, What it Does, How we built it, Accomplishments, What we learned, and What's next).
