 Health Care Hackathon organized by by Ann Arbor Health Hacks (A2H2), a local nonprofit with the goal to promove healthcare innovation and the local healthcare startup ecosystem. Co-sponsored by Frankel Cardiovascular Center. Please register. 

The Hackathon is seeking participants at several levels - especially needed are students, trainees,faculty members, staff members and alumni in health and engineering/programming/design fields who have an interest in moving things forward on any area of disease prevention. If you have a specific, nagging problem, the through that "there should be a better way to do X" to help your patients or your research project, this is an opportunity to bring it forward, "pitch" it in 30 seconds, and form a cross-functional team with other participants to hack it with you. But even if you don't have an idea, let the keynotes and pitches of others inspire you and bring your skills to the table to make a difference. The hackathon will use a braod definition of disease prevention products and services, and includes ways of improving access to care. This includes health information, education of patients and carefivers, policy and social engineering, personal and surgical hygiene, family planning, wellness, diagnostics, vaccines, and drug adherence.
