We're introducing EuroLLM-22B-MeditronFO, our latest fully open medical specialist LLM, medical specialization of EuroLLM-22B-Instruct on the Fully Open Meditron Corpus. This model is part of the Fully Open Meditron family — the first end-to-end auditable pipeline for clinical LLMs, with open weights, open data, open training recipe, and clinician-vetted corpus construction.

Part of the Fully Open Meditron family: End to end fully open clinical LLMs
Preferred over EuroLLM-22B-Instruct in 59.2% of comparisons on AutoMOOVE, the clinician-validated LLM-judge evaluation (three-judge majority, 516 clinician-written vignettes)

Benchmark

Accuracy (%) on four multiple-choice medical benchmarks (greedy decoding) and score (%) on HealthBench (all 5,000 conversations, Gemma-4-31B grader). See the paper for the full evaluation details, confidence intervals and the AutoMOOVE results.

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
import torch

model_id = "EPFLiGHT/EuroLLM-22B-MeditronFO"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
)

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "A 62-year-old woman presents with a three-day history of dyspnea on exertion and a productive cough. What is the differential diagnosis?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    tokenize=True,
    return_dict=True,
    return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=512, do_sample=False)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:], skip_special_tokens=True))

Training

Base model: EuroLLM-22B-Instruct
Corpus: Fully Open Meditron, 533,888 examples: Curated QA (195.5k, seven public medical QA datasets), Synthetic Curated QA (184.5k), Guidelines QA (129.8k, generated from 14,192 clinical practice guidelines) and Synthetic vignettes (24.0k, modelled on clinician-written MOOVE vignettes). Every answer is written by gpt-oss-120b with rejection sampling (pass@8; multiple-choice answers must match the gold label), with generation prompts co-authored by four clinicians
Decontamination: two-stage n-gram decontamination against all evaluation benchmarks and the AutoMOOVE test set (4,197 rows removed)
Recipe: 2 epochs, learning rate 1e-5 with cosine decay and 10% warmup, effective batch 128 sequences of 8,192 packed tokens, AdamW, seed 42
Framework: Axolotl with FSDP v2, bf16

Full hyperparameters are in the training appendix of the paper.

Compute & footprint

The training was done on 8 nodes of 4 NVIDIA GH200 GPUs for 4 h 01 min (129 GPU-hours) on the Alps supercomputer of the CSCS Swiss National Supercomputing Centre. Our trainings have a carbon neutral footprint as the CSCS data center is carbon neutral (CSCS energy efficiency).

Limitations & intended use

MeditronFO can produce text on a variety of topics, but the generated content may not always be factually accurate, logically consistent, or free from biases present in the training data. MeditronFO has been trained to be specialised for Medicine and is intended to be used for Medicine related tasks evaluation. These models should be used as assistive tools rather than definitive sources of information. Users should always verify important information and critically evaluate any generated content.
