We are happy to announce the 2019 n2c2/OHNLP shared task and workshop as an allied meeting of the American Medical Informatics Association Fall Symposium.

November 15, 2019
Hilton Washington, co-located with AMIA
Registration

This collaborative full-day workshop aims to bring together computational linguists and medical informaticians interested in automatic linguistic processing of electronic health records. Following the long standing i2b2 shared task series, within the framework of the new n2c2 project, this workshop presents three tracks:

  • Track 1: n2c2/OHNLP Track on Clinical Semantic Textual Similarity
    This task extends the BioCreative/OHNLP 2018 task on the same topic to new synthetic clinical notes.
  • Track 2: n2c2/OHNLP Track on Family History Extraction
    This task extends the BioCreative/OHNLP 2018 task on family history information extraction from synthetic notes.
  • Track 3: n2c2/UMass Track on Clinical Concept Normalization

This workshop serves as a venue for the participants of the shared-task to demonstrate their systems, present their papers, and discuss future directions in Natural Language Processing for Clinical Data with the broader AMIA community.  Agenda is attached. Workshop is open to all interested researchers. Please register.

Looking forward to seeing everyone in DC.
