Copenhagen | Claude Code Explainable Brains Hackathon
Join a Claude Community Event, organized by local enthusiasts for everyone who loves building with Claude Code!
Explainable Brains Hackathon
A 4-hour build sprint where cross-disciplinary teams use Claude Code and real brain imaging data from Vibraint to make complex neuroscience data accessible and interpretable.
Why this matters
Neurological conditions are among the fastest-growing health challenges in the world, and the brain remains largely a mystery. Understanding it depends on our ability to extract meaning from vast and complex datasets. The latest AI coding tools are opening up problems that weren't solvable before. Better tools mean better treatments for brain disease.
What you'll do
Vibraint presents a real challenge with real brain imaging data. You form a cross-functional team on the spot, build for 2.5 hours, then every team demos a working prototype. No slides. Just what you made.
Who it's for
STEM students, graduates, and young professionals, including product management and adjacent roles. Teams are deliberately mixed. Biologists, data scientists, software engineers, and product people. Everyone has a role in the build.
