SAHMRI Registry Centre Datathon

Teams are each assigned a clinical question to interrogate one or more datasets with the aim of generating an insight or solution to the question. At the close of the day, each team will present their finding(s), providing the opportunity for participants to develop skills in showcasing the meaning and value behind the data and its application to the real world.

*Please note, some preparatory work may be required by participants prior to start of the Datathon.

Teams may choose to use one or all of the datasets on offer to answer their assigned clinical question:

• Australia and New Zealand Dialysis and Transplant Registry (ANZDATA)
• Australia and New Zealand Intensive Care Society (ANZICS) Registry - The Adult Patient Database
• More to be confirmed!

Bring your own laptop (don’t forget the charger), be open to working with others and ready to jump in for the challenge. A rewarding and fun learning opportunity awaits!

Abstract presentations are reviewed by the scientific mentors. Judging is based on clinical relevance and impact – i.e. how your solution may influence or improve current practice, the novelty and impact of the proposed problem statement, the result presentation, and the team’s plans for the study moving forward.
