SympTEMIST stands for Symptoms TExt MIning Shared Task. It is a shared task and set of resources focused on the detection of mentions, normalization and indexing of symptoms, signs and findings in medical documents in Spanish. SympTEMIST is complementary to the DisTEMIST (https://temu.bsc.es/distemist) and MedProcNER/ProcTEMIST (https://temu.bsc.es/medprocner) corpora as they all use the same document collection.
