Large language models help decipher clinical notes - Technology Org

Researchers used a powerful deep-learning model to extract important data from electronic health records that could assist with personalized medicine. Electronic health records (EHRs) need a new public relations manager. Ten years ago, the U.S. government passed a law that strongly encouraged the adoption of electronic health records to improve and streamline care. The enormous amount of information in these now-digital records could be used to answer very specific questions beyond the scope of clinical trials: What's the right dose of this medication for patients with this height and weight? New research could help make it significantly simpler to use the information in electronic health records for personalized medicine.
