Join us on January 7-9, 2026 for an in-person (remote for folks who can’t travel) hackathon at CMU in Pittsburgh PA, hosted by CMU Libraries in partnership with NVIDIA. This hackathon focuses on leveraging NVIDIA FLARE to enable collaborative, privacy-preserving computation across multiple biobanks for disease subtyping and genetic analysis, with an emphasis on rare diseases, cancer, and polygenic traits.
Open to graduate students and research scientists in academia, government, and industry. Please complete this brief application form to participate. A first round of successful applicants will be notified by November 15. Any later applications are due by December 7.
If you have questions, please contact Melanie Gainey (mgainey@andrew.cmu.edu).
