Reconciling Utility with Privacy in Genomics

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Erman Ayday, Mathias Jacques Jean-Marc Humbert

Direct-to-consumer genetic testing makes it possible for everyone to learn their genome sequences. In order to contribute to medical research, a growing number of people publish their genomic data on the Web, sometimes under their real identities. However, ...

Protecting and Evaluating Genomic Privacy in Medical Tests and Personalized Medicine

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Erman Ayday, Jean Louis Raisaro, Jacques Rougemont

In this paper, we propose privacy-enhancing technologies for medical tests and personalized medicine methods that use patients' genomic data. Focusing on genetic disease-susceptibility tests, we develop a new architecture (between the patient and the medic ...

Privacy-Preserving Processing of Raw Genomic Data

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Erman Ayday, Jean Louis Raisaro, Adam Molyneaux

Geneticists prefer to store patients’ aligned, raw genomic data, in addition to their variant calls (compact and summarized form of the raw data), mainly because of the immaturity of bioinformatic algorithms and sequencing platforms. Thus, we propose a pri ...

Contribution of Genetic Background, Traditional Risk Factors, and HIV-Related Factors to Coronary Artery Disease Events in HIV-Positive Persons

Jacques Fellay

Background. Persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have increased rates of coronary artery disease (CAD). The relative contribution of genetic background, HIV-related factors, antiretroviral medications, and traditional risk factors to CA ...

Privacy-Preserving Computation of Disease Risk by Using Genomic, Clinical, and Environmental Data

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Erman Ayday, Jean Louis Raisaro

According to many scientists and clinicians, genomics is the "next big thing" in the field of medicine. On one hand, decreasing costs in genome sequencing has been paving the way to better preventive and personalized medicine. On the other hand, genomic da ...

A genome-to-genome analysis of associations between human genetic variation, HIV-1 sequence diversity, and viral control

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha

HIV-1 sequence diversity is affected by selection pressures arising from host genomic factors. Using paired human and viral data from 1071 individuals, we ran >3000 genome-wide scans, testing for associations between host DNA polymorphisms, HIV-1 sequence ...

Inference about the number of contributors to a DNA mixture: Comparative analyses of a Bayesian network approach and the maximum allele count method

Kjell Konis

In the forensic examination of DNA mixtures, the question of how to set the total number of contributors (N) presents a topic of ongoing interest. Part of the discussion gravitates around issues of bias, in particular when assessments of the number of cont ...
