@Srouse - would you mind sharing your experience from the kidney one?
This is so cool! How do we find out more about what these companies are doing, even after the challenge? I love that this is another way to improve patients' lives. That's incredible.

@AliEm14 this sounds like a great opportunity for all in this community. Do you happen to know what the approval process is like? Who would be judging/deciding the finalists?
I will certainly share this within my network !
Thanks!

@Karin do you have information on this?
The judges for the challenge were just announced! They include Dr. Mark Hardy, who you may recognize from our educational series with Columbia, as well as our very own patient advocate @Shelbycreates.
I'm really excited!
