 The primary goal of the NLP working group is to promote the use of textual information from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) for observational studies under the OHDSI umbrella. To facilitate this objective, the group will develop methods and software that can be implemented to utilize clinical text for studies by the OHDSI community. The primary goal of the NLP working group is to promote the use of textual information from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) for observational studies under the OHDSI umbrella.

-    Title “Cancer-Focused Natural Language Processing ​for EHR Data” by Dr. Kirk Roberts. +**Title:** LeafAI: query generator ​for clinical cohort discovery rivaling a human programmer\\ 
-Kirk Roberts, Ph.D., ​is an Associate Professor at the UTHealth School of Biomedical Informatics. He has previously conducted research ​in natural language processing (NLP) in academia, government, and industryHis research work includes using NLP to both extract structured information from unstructured free text and create ​interactive natural language applicationssuch as question answering systems ​and search enginesHe actively performs research in clinical information extractionspatial information extraction, question answering, and information retrievalHis research draws inspiration from fields as diverse as medicinelinguisticsdata science, and machine learningRoberts is also the primary organizer ​of several TREC biomedical IR tracks and recipient ​of numerous federal grantsincluding an NLM Pathway ​to Independence Award and an NIBIB Trailblazer Award+**Abstract:​** ​ Identifying study-eligible patients within clinical databases ​is a critical step in clinical research. Howeveraccurate query design typically requires extensive technical ​and biomedical expertiseWe sought ​to create ​a system capable of generating data model-agnostic queries while also providing novel logical reasoning capabilities for complex clinical trial eligibility criteria. We incorporated hybrid deep learning and rule-based modules for these, as well as a knowledge base of the Unified Medical Language System (UMLS) ​and linked ontologiesTo enable data-model agnostic query creationwe introduce a novel method for tagging database schema elements using UMLS conceptsTo evaluate our systemcalled LeafAIwe compared the capability of LeafAI to a human database programmer to identify patients who had been enrolled in 8 clinical trials conducted at our institutionWe measured performance by the number ​of actual enrolled patients matched by generated queries. LeafAI matched ​mean 43% of enrolled patients with 27,225 eligible across 8 clinical trials, compared ​to 27% matched ​and 14,587 eligible in queries by a human database programmerThe human programmer spent 26 total hours crafting queries compared to several minutes by LeafAI. Finally, we introduce a novel multimodal user interface for interaction with LeafAI.\\
