Can language models read biomedical texts and explain the biomedical
mechanisms discussed? In this work we introduce a biomedical mechanism
summarization task. Biomedical studies often investigate the mechanisms behind
how one entity (e.g., a protein or a chemical) affects another in a biological
context. The abstracts of these publications often include a focused set of
sentences that present relevant supporting statements regarding such
relationships, associated experimental evidence, and a concluding sentence that
summarizes the mechanism underlying the relationship. We leverage …
