The inaugural Computational Semantics in Clinical Text (CSCT) workshop will be taking places on 19th March 2013 at the University of Potsdam in Brandenburg, Germany. Submissions are due by the 16th November and the final versions must be submitted by 4th January 2013.
The purpose of the workshop is to examine computational semantics theory with regards to the medical domain and study topics such as the semantics-pragmatics interface, deep semantic understanding, distributional semantics, semantic ontologies, semantic web and NLP, and semantic resource development.
The clinical focus of papers is broad and includes:
Domain lexicons for clinical text
Semantic variability across subdomain, medical institution
Semantic similarity in biomedical terminologies
Novel semantic spaces
Composition in biomedical semantics
Discourse and pragmatics in clinical narratives
Cognitive models of participants
Text summarization of clinical narratives
Medical knowledge bases, logic, and inference
Semantic annotation of clinical text
Language-driven interfaces in clinical care
Language-related disorders and therapies (e.g., for aphasia)
Clinical use cases benefiting from semantic analysis
Integrating clinical semantics into other NLP tasks
Submissions are anonymous and can be short papers (system or project descriptions up to 5 pages) or long papers (original research up to 10 pages). Successful long papers will be published in the IWCS Proceedings, presented at CSCT 2012 and published in a special issue of Biomedical Informatics Insights which will appear in PubMed.

Published During AugustPublishing with Libertas Academia was a positive experience. The reviewers provided well thought out and prompt feedback which contributed to the quality of the final product. In addition, editing went quickly and smoothly. All correspondence was met by quick responses. I was impressed by the overall simplicity of the entire process.
