We are pleased to announce the Cambridge multimodal imaging neuroscience data (MIND) hackathon, that will take place at West Hub on 28th & 29th April 2025! We welcome all researchers and students in neuroscience, cognitive science, computer science, engineering, and related disciplines to get together for 2 days of problem solving on the topic of multimodal functional neuroimaging data analysis. Over 2 days, participants will compete in teams of 3-5 people to find an innovative way of analysing/interpreting multimodal neuroimaging data to solve set problems by leveraging the advantages of different neuroimaging modalities. Participants will be provided pre-recorded data from EEG, fNIRS and fMRI, and each team will need to incorporate at least two of these modalities in their proposed solution. Projects will be evaluated by judges, experts in their fields, and the winning team will share a £500 prize. In addition, teams will also compete for the people's choice prize of £250, voted for by all the participants. Food, coffee and tea will be provided throughout the 2 days.
We are hoping this event will contribute to building a community of people working with functional neuroimaging data around Cambridge, and foster the sharing of practices between the different related research fields!
A dinner will also take place in the evening of the first day to socialise with fellow participants and network with your peers (not covered by registration fee).
