Datathon 2025 Challenge Theme: 
 Unraveling the Mysteries of the Female Brain

In 2025, the WiDS Datathon focuses on studying women’s brain health. Partnering with Ann S. Bowers Women’s Brain Health Initiative in collaboration with Cornell University and UC Santa Barbara, we aim to look at how imaging based measurements of the female brain track with diagnosis of neurological or neuropsychiatric diseases. Studying this area of brain health is critical to understanding how women’s brains are impacted by adolescence, menstrual cycles, the pill, pregnancy, menopause, and aging.
