Unlock the Power of AI & Citizen Science in Cancer Research:
Join the Design-a-thon!
Are you a PhD candidate eager to make real-world impact with AI, cancer research, and community-driven innovation? Join our Design-a-thon and help shape the future of AI-assisted cancer research, in collaboration with the Netherlands Cancer Institute (NKI). The sessions are built around the question: 'how to bring together AI, human expertise and citizen science to increase access to the groundbreaking immunotherapy?'
What’s the challenge?
One of the major bottlenecks is the lack of data on the cells in our body. This is slowing down the development of AI in cancer research; AI that could help predict if a patient is eligible for immunotherapy. What if we can solve this by simply playing an online cell game to feed AI? NKI together with ChangeGamers have developed a game called Tilly to allow everyone to playfully identify and collect different cell types. Now the next step is to create a collaborative space to increase impact.
