Partners HealthCare is hosting a “Biobank Disease Challenge,” an artificial intelligence and machine learning data analytics competition and it is open to researchers within the United States.
The goal of this competition is to enable major translational data science players to leverage the Partners HealthCare Biobank in order to develop better phenotypic algorithms for clinical and basic research.
Registration will be open until July 13, 2018 to 50 teams. Prizes will be awarded for the best machine learning models and visualizations.
