The SIIM Hackathon is a place for anyone, at any point in their career, to explore different solutions and new ideas to improve the field of imaging informatics. To help you better prepare for SIIM’s Hackathon event, this session will give a general overview of the Hackathon platform/dataset and how to use it, as well as judging criteria, timing, and other logistics. The session will be recorded for those who are unable to attend. Remember this year’s Hackathon is once again in a hybrid format, meaning you can attend virtually or in-person.
