Events

Hosted by: MIT Hacking Medicine

Hacking Dermatology is a year-long initiative that is designed to nurture an open community of scientists, clinicians, patients, and advocates whose shared mission is to radically improve the dermatological patient journey and to dream big about treatments and cures for inflammatory skin conditions. This innovation challenge is spearheaded by a consortium of founding partners: Hacking Medicine Institute, LEO Pharma and Advancing Innovation in Dermatology.

On June 8–10, the consortium will host the first-ever dermatology hackathon. Five grants of $5K will be awarded to the top teams. Following the first round of funding, up to $50K in additional grants will be awarded. Both pre-formed teams and individuals are invited to apply and attend.
