Congratulations to all the participants of the hackathon! This year, the partipants had to use machine learning technique to predict the gestational age based on a dataset of blood transcriptomics from pregnant mothers. This challenge was taken from a worldwide competition organized by the Dream Challenges.

Jules Lambert and Matthew Salaciak came up with the best solutions, being able to predict within an error margin of 6 weeks the gestational age. This puts them among the top 10 competitors for the world wide challenge, an impressive result in just 24 hours.
Thank to everyone who participated, who helped organize, and the to StartpFest for inviting us to their HackerFest!
