1. **[MEDITRON-70B: Scaling Medical Pretraining for Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/chen-2023-meditron-70b-scaling-medical-pretraining/)** *(2023 · 311 citations)* Open medical LLMs have been either small (13B parameters or fewer) or, at larger scale, adapted only through instruction tuning or parameter-efficient methods.
2. **[Apertus: Democratizing Open and Compliant LLMs for Global Language Environments](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/cano-2026-apertus-democratizing-open-compliant-llms/)** *(2026 · 67 citations)* Most "open" LLMs release only their weights.
