IEEE International Conference on Digital Health (ICDH) is a prime international forum for both researchers and industry practitioners to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of digital health technologies, emerging research topics, and the future of digital health.

The ICDH organizing committee is hosting a student competition event for US-based and global graduate students and support participant’s registration fees. The students will be selected based on a project idea submission which will be evaluated by distinguished judges. Winners also will receive mentoring from selected judges. The mentoring activities will explore and expand research ideas on digital health. Minorities and women graduate students from diverse institutes are encouraged to apply throughout the diffusion of the participation grant in minority-serving institutions. Post-doctoral students may also be considered for support on a case-by-case basis.

***PARTICIPATION GUIDELINES***
