Are you an early-career researcher (ECR) who wants to delve into drug repurposing? Join us for the third REMEDi4ALL Hackathon, 6-11 September 2026, held at Hotel Checkin Montserrat, near Barcelona, Spain.
The REMEDi4ALL Repurposing Hackathon is designed to help early-career researchers learn by doing. Join a small team of international trainees keen to learn about the repurposing pathway on a week-long residential course where you aim to plan the development of a repurposing candidate for a specific patient community.

- Students and researchers in the early stages of their career, up to 2 years post-doc
- Individuals with an interest in drug repurposing
- Individuals with an excellent scientific track record
- Previous experience in the drug repurposing field will be considered a plus
What will you learn?
The REMEDi4ALL Hackathon aims to teach participants how to:
- Use computational tools to generate repurposing candidates suitable for a defined indication
- Narrow down potential repurposed drug options tailored to a particular indication
- Identify needs and knowledge gaps in a repurposing project, helping to define the path for a drug candidate
- Work together with other ECRs to complete a repurposing challenge
Training format
