A Silver Standard Corpus of Human Phenotype-Gene Relations
by Diana Sousa, Andre Lamurias and Francisco M Couto
was accepted at NAACL-HLT 2019 (Core A)

Francisco Couto will give a workshop about Data and Text processing in Health and Life Sciences
20 February 2019
Universidade do Minho, Braga

André Lamurias will give a talk entitled: Extracting microRNA-gene relations from biomedical literature using distant supervision
at February 22, 2019 in the workshop The role of text mining in curation workflows
Málaga, Spain

Data and Text Processing for Health and Life Sciences provides a step-by-step introduction on how shell scripting can help solve many of the data and text processing tasks that Health and Life specialists face everyday with minimal software dependencies. The book is particularly relevant to Health and Life specialists or students that want to easily learn how to process data and text, and which in return may facilitate and inspire them to acquire deeper bioinformatics skills in the future.
