Announcement and Call for Participation
https://n2c2.dbmi.hms.harvard.edu

We are pleased to announce the 2018 n2c2 Shared Task on Challenges in Natural Language Processing for Clinical Data. This is the latest in a series that began in 2006 at the former i2b2 National Center for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) and now continues at the Harvard Medical School Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI) in partnership with the Volgenau School of Engineering of George Mason University.

The 2018 n2c2 Shared Task consists of two tracks:
• Track 1: Cohort Selection for Clinical Trials (register at https://portal.dbmi.hms.harvard.edu/projects/n2c2-t1/)
• Track 2 (tentative): Adverse Drug Events and Medication Extraction in EHRs

The two tracks will run in separate schedules but will be coordinated with respect to their dissemination efforts and the accompanying workshop.
