Missing the submission deadline for MedGemma Impact Challenge due to snowstorm

Hi Organizing Team,

I am writing to see if there is any possibility of a late submission for my project, Ward.AI, which I completed for the MedGemma Impact Challenge. My submission was delayed to an emergency travel situation.

I traveled to Boston this past Friday and was scheduled to return on Monday to finalize my submission materials. However, the recent snowstorm cancelled all transportation options, leaving me stranded until Tuesday night. I have just been able to get back home this morning.

The project itself was completed within the hackathon window, and the GitHub commit history reflects that the core work was finished prior to the deadline.

Project Details:

I understand the importance of deadlines for fair judging, but I would deeply appreciate it if the team could review the work I’ve put in, even if only for exhibition or feedback purposes.

Thank you for your time and for putting on such a great event.

Best regards,

Oluwaferanmi Oyelude
