CoinWorld News reports that Anthropic, in collaboration with the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco and Cerebral Valley, has announced the global online hackathon “Built with Claude: Life Sciences,” scheduled for July 7 to 13, 2026, with the application deadline on July 5. The competition is open to researchers, doctors, bioinformatics experts, and biotechnology developers. The hackathon includes a laboratory track and a development track: the laboratory track requires participants to use Claude Science to solve biology-related problems and submit reproducible analysis results, while the development track requires the development of practical software tools. The organizers will select 500 applicants, providing each with Claude Max 20x access and $200 in API credits, and the winning teams will share $100,000 in API and usage credits.

The deadline is July 5th, there is not much time left for those who want to form a team. Is it still too late to recruit people now?

The intersection of bioinformatics and large models has clearly heated up this year, and Anthropic's positioning here is right on point.

What’s the concept behind Claude Max 20x? Can it run 20 long-context windows at the same time? If you’ve got a big lab workload and lots of data, that sounds great.

The doctor track is interesting; if clinical decision support can truly be implemented, it is a more pressing need than pure research.
