About Event

We invite you to join us at MIT’s inaugural Female Medicine through Machine Learning (FMML) Women's Health AI Hackathon — a one-day event to reimagine healthcare for women.

Female Medicine through Machine Learning is a new MIT initiative using artificial intelligence and real-world health data to address the massive gender gap in medicine. Despite biological differences that affect everything from disease risk to treatment response, female data (from cells to clinical trials) makes up just ~5% of the medical research body. This leads to misdiagnoses, ineffective care, and entire conditions going overlooked.

Our mission is to change that by building open-source, personalized medical tools for female bodies powered by AI.

This hackathon is your opportunity to drive change in women’s health by using AI to build something new—or expand on an existing project!
