Call for Applications: Gateway to Global Aging Education Research Hackathon

As a part of the Gateway to Global Aging Data's ongoing effort to investigate education's long-term implications for late-life health, the Gateway education team is hosting a research hackathon for early-career researchers from July 27-30 in Washington, D.C.  The hackathon is a team-based competition where participants will collaborate on a study investigating the role of education in determining risk, resilience, and disparities in non-communicable diseases, with a special interest in cognition. Winners will receive financial support for attending future conferences to present the work and journal article submission or publication costs. 

Interested applicants must submit an individual research proposal and a CV by Friday, April 17, 2026. Proposals should be between 1-2 pages in length, excluding references.

Additional details and the call for applications are on our website. For questions about the hackathon and the application process, please contact hackathon@g2aging.org.
