On Secure Cloud Computing for Genomic Data: From Storage to Analysis

Zhicong Huang

Although privacy is generally considered to be the right of an individual or group to control information about themselves, such a right has become challenging to protect in the digital era, this is exemplified by the case of cloud-based genomic computing. ...

SQC: Secure Quality Control for Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Jacques Fellay, Zhicong Huang, Huang Lin

Motivation: Due to the limited power of small-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS), researchers tend to collaborate and establish a larger consortium in order to perform large-scale GWAS. Genome-wide association meta-analysis (GWAMA) is a statistic ...

Control of growth and gut maturation by &ITHoxD&IT genes and the associated lncRNA &ITHaglr&IT

Denis Duboule, Fabrice Daniel Darbellay, Anamaria Necsulea

During embryonic development, Hox genes participate in the building of a functional digestive system in metazoans, and genetic conditions involving these genes lead to important, sometimes lethal,growth retardation. Recently, this phenotype was obtained af ...

A systems approach to elucidate the genetic architecture of molecular phenotypes

Sebastian Martin Waszak

A growing body of evidence suggests that changes in gene regulatory DNA are the major genetic determinants of variation in complex phenotypes; however, the underlying genes as well as cascades of intermediate molecular events remain in most cases elusive. ...

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 ...
