The N.C. PSI Hackathon is an annual event that gives undergraduates, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars the chance to demonstrate their skills in a three-day competition to solve ag tech-related challenges for prizes and, of course, bragging rights.

This year, the PSI Hackathon is centered around ag-tech innovation in the areas of bioinformatics, data science and hardware fabrication. Each one of those tracks will have one or more challenges and will be inclusive to participants with various levels of experience. The data science and bioinformatic tracks will have a hybrid participation option, and the in-person event will be livestreamed.
