Code for Healthcare 3rd Place

The Sin Karkinos Project | USA

Sin Karkinos is an innovative machine learning initiative aimed at addressing one of healthcare’s most pressing challenges, which is early and affordable cancer diagnosis. By developing and fine-tuning deep learning models trained on MRI brain scans, our project establishes a baseline for scalable diagnostics that can detect tumors with high accuracy.

Our vision extends beyond model performance: we aim to create a system that allows anyone, anywhere in the world, to access reliable diagnostic insights with the click of a button. This approach has the potential to make early detection faster, cheaper, and more accessible, especially for underserved families and low-resource regions where medical specialists and imaging analysis tools are limited, which we've seen first-hand.

Through Sin Karkinos and our real-life experience, we hope to pave the way toward a future where AI becomes pivotal in healthcare, empowering communities to identify diseases earlier and save more lives.
