MedHack: AI Hospital

***THIS EVENT IS THE MAIN HACKATHON EVENT IN THE MEDHACK:AI HOSPITAL SERIES***

OH NO!
Funding cuts, questionable business practices and poor working conditions have left the famous, globally renowned hospital; AI General, short staffed!
But the patients keep pouring in!
Can you help the hospital and save our (simulated) patients’ lives by building an AI that can monitor the patients and alert the medical staff when things go wrong?

Welcome to MedHack: AI Hospital. Presented by MYMI and MLAI

Beginners welcome! Step into the cutting-edge world of healthcare innovation at MedHack 2025, where participants tackle real-world challenges in our simulated AI hospital. With a shortage of staff to monitor patient data, your mission is to build an AI model that can detect abnormalities in real, de-identified healthcare data and alert the staff to act fast!
