De-identification and sharing of genetic data

摘要

A system for separating identifying data from personal data is disclosed. The system includes: a first set of stored data comprising a plurality of identifying data structures containing identifying data; a second set of stored data comprising a plurality of personal data structures containing personal data; a set of mapping data comprising a plurality of mappings, wherein each mapping is between an identifying data structure and a personal data structure; and an application configured to receive mapping data associated with a mapping, determine a mapping associated with the mapping data, and obtain a personal data structure based on the mapping. The set of mapping data is logically separate from the first set of stored data, the second set of stored data, and the application.
