First prize, Medical Students’ Hackathon, NCHPE 2025

Team Prismatics placed first of 23 teams from across India.

In November 2025, our team, Prismatics, won first prize at the Medical Students’ Hackathon of the 16th National Conference of Health Profession Education (NCHPE 2025), organised by Christian Medical College & Hospital, Ludhiana, in collaboration with AMSA India.

It was the first time the conference had held a hackathon for medical students. Twenty-three teams from across the country took part, each working on a problem in medical education or healthcare.

I represented SGRD Institute of Medical Sciences & Research, Amritsar, with my teammates Harsirjan Singh Bagga and Nishtha Pahwa.

NCHPE is a conference about how doctors are trained. Winning there as students was a reminder that the people going through medical education are often well placed to improve it, given the right platform.
