About

Headache disorders are among the most prevalent medical conditions worldwide. The diagnosis of headache disorders is based on medical history taking. Digital solutions such as natural language processing (NLP) may be of aid to understand the linguistic aspects of headache attack and headache related disability descriptions by patients. Participants will provide a written description of their headache disorder. The results will hopefully lead to a better understanding of the potential use of NLP in headache disorders.
