Despite the high impact & practical relevance of detecting diseases
automatically from social media for a diversity of applications, few
manually annotated corpora generated by healthcare practitioners to
train/evaluate advanced entity recognition tools are currently available.

Developing disease recognition tools for social media is critical for:

   -

   Real-time disease outbreak surveillance/monitoring
   -

   Characterization of patient-reported symptoms
   -

   Post-market drug safety
   -

   Epidemiology and population health,
   -

   Public opinion mining & sentiment analysis of diseases
   -

   Detection of hate speech/exclusion of sick people
   -

   Prevalence of work-associated diseases

SocialDisNER is the first track focusing on the detection of disease
mentions in tweets written in Spanish, with clear adaptation potential not
only to English but also other romance languages like Portuguese, French or
Italian spoken by over 900 million people worldwide.

For this track the SocialDisNER corpus was generated, a manual collection
of tweets enriched for first-hand experiences by patients and their
relatives as well as content generated by patient-associations (national,
regional, local) as well as healthcare institutions covering all main
diseases types including cancer, mental health, chronic and rare diseases
among others.
