Abstract
Genomics data are important for advancing biomedical research, improving clinical care, and informing other disciplines such as forensics and genealogy. However, privacy concerns arise when genomic data are shared. In particular, the identifying nature of genetic information, its direct relationship to health status, and the potential financial harm and stigmatization posed to individuals and their blood relatives call for a survey of the privacy issues related to sharing genetic and related data and potential solutions to overcome these issues. In this work, we provide an overview of the importance of genomic privacy, the information gleaned from genomics data, the sources of potential private information leakages in genomics, and ways to preserve privacy while utilizing the genetic information in research. We discuss the relationship between trust in the scientific community and protecting privacy, illuminating a future roadmap for data sharing and study participation.
期刊介绍：
The Annual Review of Biomedical Data Science provides comprehensive expert reviews in biomedical data science, focusing on advanced methods to store, retrieve, analyze, and organize biomedical data and knowledge. The scope of the journal encompasses informatics, computational, artificial intelligence (AI), and statistical approaches to biomedical data, including the sub-fields of bioinformatics, computational biology, biomedical informatics, clinical and clinical research informatics, biostatistics, and imaging informatics. The mission of the journal is to identify both emerging and established areas of biomedical data science, and the leaders in these fields.
