Researchers Develop Algorithm for Hiding Medical Data

A new technique allows medical records to be used for research on the
genetics of disease while still protecting patients from prying eyes. The new method disguises parts of the medical history data that are not
relevant to a geneticist’s particular research question using an
algorithm that combs through health records and makes some aspects of
them more general. Read the full article. [ScienceNews]
