Public Access to Genome-Wide Data: Five Views on Balancing Research with Privacy and Protection

2 Oct 2009

Abstract excerpt

Introductory paragraph: Just over twelve months ago, PLoS Genetics published a paper [1] demonstrating that, given genome-wide genotype data from an individual, it is, in principle, possible to ascertain whether that individual is a member of a larger group defined solely by aggregate genotype frequencies, such as a forensic sample or a cohort of participants in a genome-wide association study (GWAS). As a...
