Hi Chris, We have not focused on the gene mappings because gene mentions were not very frequent in the clinical narrative until several years ago. However, as genes/mutations and proteins have become actionable items in both diagnosing and treatment, we do have plans to add a module for gene/mutations/protein mentions in the very near future. We are likely to start with cancer since that domain offers most actionable information and is consistently recorded in pathology notes. Contributions are more than welcome.
Is this helping?

Are there any plans to include this in a future release of Apache cTAKES? We were just wondering. Thanks all!
