Reimagining

Automated Biomedical

Indexing

A global information analytics company has a very comprehensive

biomedical database. The company is committed to serving
up-to-date, high-quality biomedical evidence to the pharma
industry and the biomedical research community. They have an
ongoing requirement for detailed and accurate indexing of

concepts derived from thousands of biomedical journal articles
published worldwide.

The company employs multiple teams to analyze each article and
identify the data points and concepts of interest to find the most

specific term representing the data or concept from a
comprehensive biomedical thesaurus for indexing. This process is
time-consuming and requires Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to
understand the biomedical information and index it with suitable
terms from the thesaurus to facilitate the discoverability of content

by the end-user of the database.

Straive designed and implemented a comprehensive
Natural Language Processing

(NLP) based-automation solution that delivered efficiency & quality
output that reduces the manual effort to elicit a quality final deliverable.
