IT For Society Competition: Finalist Presentations

Wednesday, April 29, 2009
3:00 pm to 5:00 pm
Jean & E. Floyd Kvamme Atrium, Sutardja Dai Hall

A poster session with the top entries in the 2009 CITRIS White Paper Competition will be followed by the award ceremony for the judged winners. This event is free, open to the public and refreshments will be served.

The thirteen finalists include two I School master's final projects. "Squash & Vine", by Aylin Selcukoglu, Hazel Onsrud, and Shawna Hein, is an information infrastructure to foster communication in the local food community and connect local farmers, consumers, restaurants, and retailers. "Hyoumanity," by Jonathan Hicks and Xiaomeng Zhong, seeks to improve awareness of persistent medical nondiagnosis and misdiagnosis and to empower patients and doctors to resolve complex cases.

The white paper competition is part of the Bears Breaking Boundaries contest, a series of “idea competitions” to encourage student teams to propose the next generation of research, education, and service activities on the UC Berkeley campus.

Winners will be announced immediately following the poster session.
