# Clinical_History_Mekkes_PubmedBert 

This model extends upon the PubMedBert pre-trained model from [this repository ](https://huggingface.co/microsoft/BiomedNLP-BiomedBERT-base-uncased-abstract). The Clinical History Mekkes model was further optimized and retrained on clinical summaries from the Netherlands Brain Bank (NBB) containing information regarding the clinical signs and symptoms that their donors experienced.

The model was first used in [this paper](https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.09.22.22280158v1) and the associated Github and code can be found [here](https://github.com/NetherlandsNeurogeneticsDatabase/Clinical_History)
