Dear Community,
Profs.
Gari Clifford and
Matt Reyna recently brought the PhysioNet Challenges to
Data Science Africa 2024 over 2-5 June 2024 in Nyeri, Kenya.
Victoria Sitati and
Antony Gitau from Prof.
Ciira Maina's
DSAIL lab at
DeKUT generously helped us to run the hackathon with over
50 attendees over 4 days, resulting in over 10 teams with over 30 participants from the conference. The
IEEE SPS has generously sponsored prizes for these teams and other teams from Africa, which will be announced at
CinC 2024 on 11 Sept. 2024 in Karlsruhe, Germany. Please see the
DeKUT DSAIL newsletter for more information about a very exciting DSA, and we hope to see some of our new friends at
CinC 2024 only two months from now.
Best,
Gari and Matt
(On behalf of the Challenge team.)
