Digital Health Partnership Conference – New York 2026
May 4-8, 2026
The 2026 Digital Health Partnership Conference brought together researchers, clinicians, trainees, and collaborators from the Hasso Plattner Institute, Mount Sinai Health System, and Data4Life at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
The week began with a two-day ECG + EHR Hackathon, where teams used AI-Ready Mount Sinai (AIR·MS) and the Minerva High-Performance Computing platform to tackle a real-world clinical AI challenge. The winning team included HPI master’s students Dinh Trung Hieu Le and Chris-Bennet Fleger, and Mount Sinai PhD student Michelle Campoli.
Conference sessions explored how AI, multimodal data, and collaborative science are advancing precision medicine, accelerating research, and transforming clinical care. Discussions also highlighted innovations in audiovisual AI, learning health systems, and discoveries from the Mount Sinai Million Health Discoveries Program.
Thank you to our partners and friends Girish Nadkarni, Alexander Charney, Dara (Meyer) Rozanski, MS, PMP, Kelly Morgan, Emily Holzman, MPH, PMP and the committee for hosting us and organizing this event!
A special thank you goes to Ben Glicksberg, Matteo Danieletto, Ashwin Sawant, Marissa Wirth, Lewis Lo, Malika Gregory, Matt Johnson, Herve DiBello, Anurag Patil and Pablo Guerrero for developing and organizing the #hackathon.
We look forward to seeing you all at the next conference! 🙌

How can large-scale health data help us better understand complex and poorly understood diseases?
Jonas Ebner, Research Assistant and Master’s student at the Hasso Plattner Institute, is using AIR·MS to investigate two challenging topics: Fragile X premutation and post-COVID syndrome (Long COVID). By analyzing electronic health record data with machine learning methods, he aims to identify patterns and potential mechanisms behind these conditions. With access to large, well-structured datasets and high-performance computing, AIR·MS enables Jonas to explore research questions that would be difficult to investigate with traditional study designs.
