The Horizon Prize challenge powered by MIT Solve seeks to leverage big data and analytics to improve the detection and diagnosis of rare diseases, address the unjust and disproportionate burden of rare diseases faced by disinvested communities and historically underrepresented identity groups, promote community and connection among the rare disease community and advocates, and unlock collaboration among patients, scientists, and health care providers to improve patient outcomes.
Up to $150,000 in prize funding will be awarded for up to two solution teams selected for The Horizon Prize. The Horizon Prize encourages and actively seeks solutions led by people with rare diseases and from underrepresented groups and identities.
