With the rapid development of precision medicine, a large amount of health data (such as electronic health records, gene sequencing, medical images, etc.) has been produced. It encourages more and more interest in data-driven insight discovery from these data. It is a reasonable way to verify the derived insights in biomedical literature. However, manual verification is inefficient and not scalable. Therefore, an intelligent technique is necessary to solve this problem. In this paper, we propose a task of biomedical evidence generation, which is very novel and different from existing NLP tasks. Furthermore, we developed a biomedical evidence generation engine for this task with the pipeline of three components which are a literature retrieval module, a skeleton information identification module, and a text summarization module.
