And the winner is...
First off, thank you to everyone who participated in the first MIDAS MISSION Public Health Hackathon. The feedback has been ovewhelmingly positive, and it was great to see all of the work and creativity that went into our submissions. The judges have decided. This was a difficult decision for our judges as all of the entries were really good, espcially given the fact that they were all written over a two day period.
The winners of the 2016 MIDAS MISSION Public Health Hackathon - Visualization are:
1st Place: SPEW VIEW, Team: SPEW
2nd Place: Galapagos, Team: Blitz…
