Brainstorm the next big idea

Princeton MediHack (PMH)

There I am in the back in the upper right side of the picture above circled in red attending Princeton MediHack (PMH), Princeton University’s premier medical hackathon last weekend. The 2018 PMH is the first at Princeton to connect medicine, technology, research, policy, and entrepreneurship. It was a great experience.

In its inaugural year, Princeton MediHack (PMH) aimed to build innovative solutions for healthcare problems with hundreds of other hackers. During the 36-hour event, students teamed up to collaborate on a project to be presented to a panel of judges by the end of the weekend. Experts in the field of medicine, including doctors and healthcare entrepreneurs, will serve as speakers and mentors.

What you are most proud of from the past 3 months in the Challenge course?

One, being chosen

I was always a little intimidated by JavaScript when I first started using it in 1995. The e-commerce startup company I was working at bet the farm on Java over JavaScript. They built their core product, a shopping cart, using Java not JavaScript. At that time JavaScript had a pretty bad reputation in the firm. And that sentiment about JavaScript has lingered with me all this time until I completed this course.
