Summary
The Australian Medivate Data Challenge is a four-day competition where teams address real world challenges, developing their solution to one of the provided problem statements before pitching their cases before a panel of judges.
Hosted by the Sydney University Society of Medical Innovation in partnership with the Digital Health CRC, this nation-wide competition provides both participants and sponsors with an incredible networking and industry-experience opportunity.
Participants will be able to engage with complex challenges using a specially-curated resource library under the professional guidance of our mentors, and get a taste for problem solving in the health-data world.
For the Australian Medivate Data Challenge 2024, teams of 4-5 will use the data documentation of two complex and large data sets, MIMIC-IV and All of Us, to address the one of the presented challenges.
MIMIC-IV, or the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Cart, is a de-identified database that provides critical care data from a large tertiary hospital in Boston. MIMIC-IV has been integral in driving large amounts of research in clinical informatics, epidemiology, and machine learning
The All of Us Program led by the United States’ National Institute of Health is building one of the largest biomedical data resources of its kind. The program’s research hub seeks to create a diverse database that reflects the US’ population.
