headline: Large language models encode clinical knowledge
dek: Abstract Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated impressive capabilities, but the bar for clinical applications is high. Attempts to assess the clinical knowledge of models typically rely on automated evaluations based on limited benchmarks. Here, to address these limitations, we present MultiMedQA, a benchmark combining six existing medical question answering datasets spanning professional medicine, research and consumer queries and a new dataset of medical questions searched online, HealthSearchQA. We p…
gain_reading: (none)
problem_reading: Large language models encode clinical knowledge: We propose a human evaluation framework for model answers along multiple axes including factuality, comprehension, reasoning, possible harm and bias.
limitation: Historical evidence reading: the cited study may be limited by its design, population, period, or setting, and later research may report different effects.
tag: Evidence-backed problem

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-0061 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
