## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[MedAlpaca -- An Open-Source Collection of Medical Conversational AI Models and Training Data](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/han-2023-medalpaca-open-source-collection-medical/)** *(2023 · 221 citations)* Clinical use of large language models is limited by privacy: the strongest systems run only behind vendor APIs, so patient data would leave the hospital.
2. **[DeepICD-R1: Medical Reasoning through Hierarchical Rewards and Unsupervised Distillation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/rohr-2026-deepicd-r1-medical-reasoning-through/)** *(2026)* The paper tests whether reasoning-focused post-training, so far most successful in mathematics and programming, can carry over to clinical diagnosis without expensive domain-specific pretraining.
