  abstract  = {Named Entity Recognition (NER) is an important component of natural language
	processing (NLP), with applicability in biomedical domain, enabling
	knowledge-discovery from medical texts. Due to the fact that for the Romanian
	language there are only a few linguistic resources specific to the biomedical
	domain, it was created a sub-corpus specific to this domain.
	In this paper we present a newly developed Romanian sub-corpus for
	medical-domain NER, which is a valuable asset for the field of biomedical text
	processing. We provide a description of the sub-corpus, informative statistics
	about data-composition and we evaluate an automatic NER tool on the newly
	created resource.},
