Join the challenge to develop, train, and test models to aid in predicting the susceptibility to and likelihood of developing PASC/Long COVID in patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Long COVID can affect anyone, including children and it can develop in people who had asymptomatic, mild, or severe COVID-19. To complement the National Institutes of Health (NIH) other Long COVID research initiatives, like Researching COVID to Enhance Recovery (RECOVER), the RADx-Radical (RADx-rad) program at the NIH is launching the Long COVID Computational Challenge (L3C). NIH designed this challenge to support creative data-driven solutions that meaningfully advance the current understanding of the risks of developing PASC/Long COVID. The total prize for this Challenge will be up to $500,000.
