project brief
Early diagnosis, careful treatment, and constant monitoring may help 85-90% of people with Lupus live a normal lifespan. However, heightened stress from this chronic condition can result in missed medication. During a 24-hour hackathon, our team set out to create a gamified mobile app to motivate and support Lupus patients with their daily medication.
project outcome
Our team won the Lupus Design Challenge with a user-friendly, compassionate app. It was my first time working with engineers on a student project, and I was blown away with our multidisciplinary perspectives and overall chemistry. It was also my first in-person hackathon!
