This short presentation will sum up key insights from an intensive, transdisciplinary hackathon addressing urgent issues in healthcare. In close collaboration, artists, students, medical professionals, and AI experts will develop bold ideas reimagining the future of medicine. The hackathon is a joint initiative by Johannes Kepler University Linz, the LBG Open Innovation in Science Center, and Ars Electronica—and part of the Impact Initiative. The Impact Initiative is initiated by the Open Innovation in Science Center at the Ludwig Boltzmann Gesellschaft.
