Journal Club

I am intermittently organizing a journal club for folks interested in health-related NLP.   Most of the papers discussed have focused on clinical NLP, but we're also interested in the application of NLP to social media to support health research.  More details here.  Please email me (mike.conway@unimelb.edu.au) if you are interested in attending.
