Hackathon Outcomes and Opportunities
Hackathon Outcomes
GitHub Repository
A GitHub repository has been created to house the outputs from all six working groups. It contains the code, data, and resources developed during the hackathon, ensuring these contributions remain accessible and reusable by the broader public health and scientific communities. You can explore it through the Github Orgnaization.
Practice Manuscript
We’re delighted to share that our manuscript describing the lessons learned from the recent hackathon is now published and available online!
This manuscript provides valuable insights and serves as a practical guide for anyone interested in organising similar events in the future. It includes a comprehensive account of the methods used, challenges encountered, and effective solutions implemented during the hackathon.
You can access the manuscript here: https://osf.io/preprints/socarxiv/tcjqs_v1
A huge thank you to all the authors, participants, and contributors who made this possible—your efforts and collaboration were essential to the success of this project!
Hackathon Website
The hackathon website serves as a central hub, hosting all the materials, slides, and resources used throughout the event. It provides participants and others interested in the hackathon with comprehensive access to the information needed to replicate or build upon the event. This website is an enduring resource that supports knowledge sharing and capacity building.
From Hackathon to Impact
Our hackathon is designed not only to address immediate public health challenges but also to inspire long-term innovation and collaboration. We hope that the groups formed during the event will continue their work, potentially refining their projects into impactful tools or ideas. One way to showcase your work further is by submitting to relevant conferences, sharing insights with the broader scientific and public health community.
To help, we’ve gathered a list of potential conferences where you could present your work. Explore the map below to see the locations of these conferences and learn more about them.

Submit Your Work
We encourage all teams to consider how their hackathon projects can have a lasting impact. Beyond presenting at conferences, think about collaborating with new partners, publishing in journals, or applying for funding to take your ideas further.
Stay tuned for more updates, and let us know if you have questions about submitting your work or applying for funding opportunities.
Thinking about other conferences?
If there are other meetings or conferences you are interested in, please let us know. And you can use your newly learnt Github skills to make a pull request to the data/conferences.csv to share it.
