1. **[A Survey of Large Language Models in Medicine: Progress, Application, and Challenge](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/zhou-2023-survey-large-language-models-medicine/)** *(2023 · 87 citations)* This survey maps how large language models are being adapted to medicine. It covers how they are built, how well they perform, and what blocks their clinical use. Earlier reviews mostly described ChatGPT-style applications through small case studies. They offered little guidance on constructing medical models or…
2. **[You Never Know a Person, You Only Know Their Defenses: Detecting Levels of Psychological Defense Mechanisms in Supportive Conversations](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/na-2026-you-never-know-person-you/)** *(2026 · 15 citations)* Psychological defenses are mostly automatic coping strategies. They shape what help seekers reveal and whether they accept or push back against support. Emotional support dialogue systems do not model them, and no public conversational dataset has been annotated with them. The authors address this gap with…
3. **[Overview of the PsyDefDetect Shared Task at BioNLP 2026: Detecting Levels of Psychological Defense Mechanisms in Supportive Conversations](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/na-2026-overview-psydefdetect-shared-task-bionlp/)** *(2026 · 13 citations)* Emotional support dialogue systems have mostly modeled empathy, supporter strategies and affect. They have largely ignored how help-seekers' words reveal psychological defenses, which shape what people disclose and whether they accept help. The PsyDefDetect shared task at BioNLP@ACL 2026 addresses this gap. Systems…
