Sydney University is running  a Coding Challenge as part of its Innovation Week (30 July – 3 August). The challenge - see Kaggle - requires contestants to develop a solution for automatically identifying words spoken in response to a memory test – part of the Valenzuela lab’s LOGOS dementia diagnosis project. 

The data is available now, and entries will close on 16th July.

To be eligible to compete you must be:

• a student or staff member at an Australian university, school or research institute
  
• available to attend the award ceremony in Sydney (on or around 31 July 2018).
