CTC29 – which is all about Health – takes place on 17-18 June 2023 at the ONE Tech Hub, Schoolhill and online. We’ve teamed up with NHS Grampian and the University of Aberdeen to make this one of our biggest events in quite some time.

# Who should attend?
Anyone! Despite our name, coding is only a part of what we do.
It’s essential that we have subject area specialists. In this case that might be doctors, nurses, physios, the care sector, university or college lecturers, those in the industry, pupils, students and those who work in research or policy. And those who have less formal roles too.
Of course, coders, data wranglers, designers and other techies are important to a hack weekend.
Once we have some challenges posed, we’ll create projects and teams to work on them over the weekend.
# Challenges
We will have a number of challenges: one of which to work collaboratively to solve – or you can suggest your own ones.
Already we have some challenges posed around physical activity and rehabilitation. These include the potential of tech (apps and wearables) for supporting:
* home (rehab) exercises – delivery and progress tracking
* active accessible travel
* healthy ageing (e.g. falls prevention)
* self-management of chronic conditions
* mental health / wellbeing related to PA and rehab
More challenges will be added soon.
