- 5:00 PM1hData Engineering Hackathon for Precision MedicineData Engineering Hackathon for Precision MedicineKickoff event: Friday, February 7 at 4:00pm in EE 106Hackathon: Friday, February 28 at 5:00pm to Saturday, March 1 at 5:00pm.Three top teams receive up to $10,000 in cash prizes. Judges will determine the prize amounts.Data engineering workflows are critical for the handling of and knowledge generation from contemporary massive datasets, yet when tackling problems in precision medicine the datasets are often characterized as enormous, unstructured, biased, sparse, and consisting of private and sensitive information, which present significant hurdles! Participate in this hackathon to learn, explore, and win prizes! A series of short workshops/talks by industry and academic experts will help you learn and fuel your creativity to propose tools, frameworks, and solutions for precision medicine using the massive All of Us dataset as a testbed!This valuable opportunity will help fuel the next step in your career, allowing you to highlight a practical, team-oriented, and data-drive project on your resume, to network with peers with similar ambitions and educational goals, and to showcase your innovativeness, computational skillset, and capacity for teamwork to hackathon sponsors and partners, which may help open doors for future internships and employment.For information about this successful event from last year, please see the press release from the College of Engineering and Computer Science: https://www.fau.edu/engineering/news/2410-precision-medicine-hackathon/.REGISTER HERE: https://canvas.fau.edu/enroll/G3YPR7[all hackathon resources will be shared on this Canvas course page]Once registered, please complete the All of Us Dataset Onboarding assignment published on the Canvas page.
