This goes out to all biohackers / DIYbio people who are into gaming and might want to participate in creating a scientific based game on the issue of lung infections.
The Gaminfection Hackathon (http://gaminfectionhack.weebly.com/) is going to be from the 29th of September to the 1st of October in Erlangen, Germany.
During the weekend participants will work in mixed group of disciplines on the gamification of the scientific computer model of a lung infection. The goal is to move fast and be creative - it is not a matter of getting lost in clean code or awesome graphics, but about actually creating detailed concepts or even playable prototypes. To sum it up the goals are:
- Have fun
- Enjoy interdisciplinary teams
- Learn something about pneumonia
- Be creative
- Create a concept or playable prototype of a serious game
No matter if still a student, a professional or retired. Everybody is welcomed to join the challenge.
The host is the Health Hackers e.V. (non-profit association) and the department of bioinformatic research of the local university. And to disclose financial support upfront: we are receiving support by two pharmaceutical companies (2500 and 5000 Euro) and some money from research and innovation grants (2500 Euro).
Fee: 10 Euro as protection of people who register and doesn´t show up.
For question I am happy to help, feel free to contact me here or via mail Christian @ healthhackers.de
Cheers
Christian
