CIDA Hackathon

Think you can code?

The CIDA Hackathon is an opportunity for students, faculty, and community members to come together to develop innovative tools and analyses that will help drive research on campus. Throughout the event, our goal is to open the doors to resources that allow participants to further develop their programming skills, while building a community of researchers, mentors, and fellow programmers.

In January 2020, participants tested their coding skills at CIDA’s Hackathon. The event was a success and we look forward to hosting it again next year. Please read more about this year's event below. The CIDA Hackathon opens the doors to resources that allow you to build and develop coding skills through hands-on analyses of wearable data. All statistical software can be used to compete in the Hackathon.

Create, innovate, and drive science with students, faculty, and medical experts. Register for the CIDA Hackathon today.

Cash prizes will be awarded to the best teams.
