Privacy Preservation of Genomic and Medical Data

Discusses topics concerning the privacy preservation of genomic data in the digital era, including data security, data standards, and privacy laws so that researchers in biomedical informatics, computer privacy and ELSI can assess the latest advances in privacy-preserving techniques for the protection of human genomic data.

Privacy Preservation of Genomic and Medical Data focuses on genomic data sources, analytical tools, and the importance of privacy preservation. Topics discussed include tensor flow and Bio-Weka, privacy laws, HIPAA, and other emerging technologies like Internet of Things, IoT-based cloud environments, cloud computing, edge computing, and blockchain technology for smart applications. The book starts with an introduction to genomes, genomics, genetics, transcriptomes, proteomes, and other basic concepts of modern molecular biology. DNA sequencing methodology, DNA-binding proteins, and other related terms concerning genomes and genetics, and the privacy issues are discussed in detail. The book also focuses on genomic data sources, analyzing tools, and the importance of privacy preservation. It concludes with future predictions for genomic and genomic privacy, emerging technologies, and applications.
