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. 

Audience

Researchers  in information technology, data mining, health informatics and health  technologies, clinical informatics, bioinformatics, security and privacy  in healthcare, as well as health policy developers in public and  private health departments and public health.
