HackHERHealth - kick-off

The gender health gap is real. Women have higher rates of sick leave than men, are more affected by mental illness, and have been historically underrepresented in medical research.

To address this societal problem and generate concrete solutions to solve it, Sahlgrenska Science Park, GoCo Health Innovation City, AstraZeneca, and other members of Health Innovation West are now inviting to HackHERHealth – a hackathon focused on reducing the gender health gap and advancing women’s health.

Using advanced, generative AI tools, HackHERHealth is set to tackle gender disparities in health and healthcare, a challenge often rooted in historical inequalities in research and medical treatment practices.

Students, researchers, tech enthusiasts, life science experts, entrepreneurs – anyone who wants to participate – are invited to together develop innovative femtech solutions to bridge the gap that exists between men and women in the health field.
