_DESCRIPTION = """BLURB (Biomedical Language Understanding and Reasoning Benchmark.)
is a comprehensive benchmark for biomedical NLP, with 13 biomedical NLP datasets in 6 
tasks (NER, PICO, Relation Extraction, Sentence similarity, document classification, question answering). 
Our aim is to facilitate investigations of biomedical natural language processing 
with a specific focus on language model pretraining and to help accelerate progress in universal Biomedical 
NLP applications. The table below compares the datasets comprising BLURB versus the various datasets used in 
previous Biomedical and Clinical BERT language models."""
