About The Event This Deep Dive event is a weekend long event in collaboration with Brain Awareness Week. This Deep Dive is aimed at bringing together students from across disciplines to develop creative applications of neuroimaging data. Teams will compete to develop the most innovative brain-computer interface (BCI) application, using open-source software packages and data. No prior background or experience needed to participate! Students in Neuroscience, Computer Science and curious data geeks are all welcome! Teams will be formed on Friday evening. Mentors will be on hand to provide support. It's all about fun, creativity and learning! There will be free food and beverages! Cash prizes will also be awarded in two categories:focusing on Machine Learning and Applications.

***Due to the COVID-19 virus, this 4th annual Hackathon has been postponed *** Developers, designers, marketers, healthcare workers, engineers, and more in Ontario — both professionals and students! You're invited to take part in Hack For Good 2020 - Body Hack Hackathon. Come as part of a team of between 2 and 5 members, or join one at the event. In this 36-hour event, you'll be challenged to design and build a hardware and/or software prototype that addresses a specific healthcare issue — perhaps a diagnostic, a treatment, a prosthetic device, or whatever you choose. Be prepared to participate with the best hackathon advice!

Technology is having a tremendous impact on healthcare with innovative solutions being developed to help diagnose and treat diseases, the creation of advanced prosthetic devices, and much more. For geekspeak's 4th annual hackathon, Body Hack, participants will work in teams for 36-hours to create a hardware and/or software prototype that addresses a healthcare issue.We want to demonstrate how technology can be used to improve the lives of people locally as well as around the world.

Hackers in Saskatchewan! If you're planning to participate in the upcoming HackRegina hackathon, then you're invited to attend the special hackathon preparation workshop. Sign up today for this free workshop to learn about the skills required for the hackathon and participate in a crash course in electronics!
