Meeting Description:

BioNLP 2015
http://www.aclweb.org/aclwiki/index.php?title=BioNLP_Workshop

Over the course of the past thirteen years, the ACL BioNLP workshop associated with the SIGBIOMED special interest group has established itself as the primary venue for presenting foundational research in language processing for the biological and medical domains. The workshop serves as both a venue for bringing together researchers in bio- and clinical NLP and exposing these researchers to the mainstream ACL research, and a venue for informing the mainstream ACL researchers about this fast-growing and important domain. The workshop will continue presenting work on a broad and interesting range of topics in NLP.

Venue: BioNLP 2015 will be held in conjunction with ACL 2015 in Beijing, People’s Republic of China.
