MIND Digital Mental Health Hackathon

Get ready to dive into the world of digital mental health at the MIND Digital Mental Health Hackathon!

The MIND Lab, run by Dr Mel McKendrick, is hosting a digital mental health themed hackathon. The event is designed to raise awareness of global mental health challenges and highlight how digital technologies can offer innovative, real-world solutions.

It will bring together HWU researchers from any discipline and individuals with lived experience from the community for a full-day programme that begins with an introduction to the current digital mental health research landscape, followed by a co-design session where research teams collaborate with individuals with lived experience to identify priority challenges. If you are a researcher with an interest in mental health and are curious about how digital tools might support your research, this is an event for you!

Info: In the afternoon, each attendee will be placed into teams depending on research interests and given the opportunity to not only network with other academics and industry experts, but the change to problem solve a digital solution for a research problem of the team's choosing!

Info: Hackathon teams will have the chance to present their ideas to industry experts in exchange for a cash prize!
