BRAT: I was just looking into BRAT because of this paper 
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3676157/#bat019-B5

it is interesting that clinical text and genomic text mining are beginning to 
blur the lines. 
A few weeks ago the $1000 genome made the news, here comes the annotation 
challenge. 

In the next few years we'll see more gene testing labs trying to annotate 
whatever clinical indications they can get from the test order. 
Its basically essential to the gene-testing business.
