The goal of Young Medical Delta is to create a platform for students, young researchers and young professionals who are at the beginning of their careers in life sciences, health, and technology. 

Young Medical Delta holds an annual hackathon where participants are challenged to find innovative solutions for health problems from practice. With its events, such as symposia, Young Medical Delta presents ongoing research and offers interested parties the opportunity to network and find new collaboration opportunities. During the annual Thesis Awards, Young Medical Delta rewards the best graduation theses, graduation projects, and dissertations at the intersection of health & technology.
