MedLEE commercialized

November 14th, 2008 by Patrick

I saw on HISTalk this week that Columbia University’s MedLEE system is being commercialized by a new startup with the somewhat dry name of NLP International Corporation. It appears that Columbia’s Science & Technology Ventures office has helped create this startup and granted it an exclusive MedLEE license.

MedLEE has been around for awhile, so I’m surprised that this commercialization is happening now. It’s a great system that I used for my AMIA project. I hope this startup can build some great applications and deliver benefits to the wider industry, with a reward for those who worked so hard to build it over the last decade-plus.

You can try a MedLEE demo here.
