Official launch of 2025 Sprint

We are very pleased to announce the official launch of the 2nd Sprint: Infodengue-Mosqlimate Dengue Challenge (IMDC). Registration will be open from 05/15/2025 to 06/15/2025 through the registration form.

Detailed instructions about the event and the results of the previous edition can be accessed here

The initiative was led by the Mosqlimate and Infodengue.

The Official start of the 2025 sprint is rapidly approaching!

We held the first IMDC in 2024 with the challenge of predicting dengue incidence in Brazil for the 2024 and 2025 seasons. Six teams participated in the Dengue 2024 Sprint with a variety of modelling approaches, testing innovative tools and methodologies to understand dengue dynamics in Brazil. All models were registered on the Mosqlimate platform, which is designed to facilitate visualization and comparison of forecasting models. This year, we expect an even larger set of methodologies.
