Abstract
Large Language Models and Generative AI is making headlines in its potential to change the way information is created and consumed and how work is done in every industry. But can these new technologies stand up to the requirements of scientific rigor in clinical research and development? In this talk, Angela Lai will explain how Betteromics developed an LLM methodology to enable Clinical Data Abstraction, traditionally a laborious process, to be much faster, more flexible and trustworthy.
