Huge congratulations to Abderrahman Al‑Qirim and Hamizan Naeem, Year 1 BSc Medical Informatics students, for winning the Harvard Health Systems Innovation Lab (HSIL) Hackathon 2026 as Team Yaqeen Health! 🇲🇾

• Predicting patient deterioration early using the clinically validated NEWS2 score
• Generating on device AI shift handover summaries for nursing teams
• Running entirely offline so it’s usable in rural and low connectivity settings
As champions, they will represent Malaysia on the program’s Global Incubation Track. 🌎
