Pitt Challenge; Healthcare-Focused Hackathon (Details inside)

On behalf of the University of Pittsburgh School of Pharmacy we are pleased to invite students from Northeastern to the 3rd Annual Pitt Challenge Hackathon, on Friday, October 11 6:00 PM – Saturday, October 12 7:00 PM. The goal of the Pitt Challenge is to bring together universities, students, startups, and innovation leaders of all backgrounds. We as a hackathon committee are looking for students not only interested in computer science and engineering, but also in solving some of the greatest health-related challenges that face us today. Pittsburgh has a rich history of healthcare with the successes of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and is a growing technology hub, thanks to universities such as Pitt and Carnegie Mellon.
