As a result of staffing changes in our research group, applications for credentialed access are likely to be subject to significant delays. We are doing our best to deal with the waitlist quickly, handling applications in the order in which they are received. To help ensure that your application is successful, please remember to:

• Include a copy of your CITI training report (not the certificate).
• Remind your reference to reply promptly when contacted.
• Check your application details are correct before submitting.
• Add an institutional or educational email address as your primary email.

We apologize for the inconvenience. Please bear with us during this busy time!

The George B. Moody PhysioNet Challenge 2024 is teaming up with Data Science Africa (DSA) to innovate cardiac care through signal processing & machine learning at Nyeri, Kenya, for DSA's 10 year anniversary in June 2024.

DSA aims to create a hub in the network of data science researchers across Africa and strengthen the African data science community. #DSA2024Nyeri https://www.datascienceafrica.org/dsa2024nyeri/blog/summer-school

We recognize that there is value in creating datasets or models that are either derived from MIMIC or which augment MIMIC in some way (for example, by adding annotations). Here are some guidelines on creating these datasets and models:

• Any derived datasets or models should be treated as containing sensitive information. If you wish to share these resources, they should be shared on PhysioNet under the same agreement as the source data.
• If you would like to use the MIMIC acronym in your project name, please include the letters “Ext” (for example, MIMIC-IV-Ext-YOUR-DATASET"). Ext may either indicate “extracted” (e.g. a derived subset) or “extended” (e.g. annotations), depending on your use case.

We are currently experiencing network issues at MIT, impacting the availability of PhysioNet services. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and are working to resolve the issue as soon as we can.

We are delighted to announce that the George B. Moody PhysioNet Challenges are partnering with Data Science Africa (DSA) and the IEEE Signal Processing Society's Challenges and Data Collections Committee (CDCC). The IEEE CDCC is supporting this year’s Challenge with additional cash prizes for participating teams from Africa and the Challenge organizers will be running a workshop at this year's annual DSA meeting in Kenya. In connection with this, the Challenge organizers will be running a workshop at DSA in Kenya from June 2-5th 2024. Please note that we are also accepting (and scoring) entries, and there are two deadlines coming up - April 8th to submit a preliminary entry to the Challenge and April 15th to submit a (placeholder) abstract to CinC.
