Justin Hofenbitzer

Computational linguist · Doctoral researcher in clinical NLP

Core Information/photo.jpg|200

I study how linguistic variation across clinical specialties and between real and synthetic texts affects clinical natural language processing. My work focuses on German clinical language resources, text evaluation, and semantic annotation with SNOMED CT.

I am a doctoral researcher at the Chair of Medical Informatics, Institute for AI and Informatics in Medicine (AIIM), Technical University of Munich. In the GeMTeX consortium, I lead the semantic annotation work package and supervise the local annotation team.
