The book "Privacy Preservation of Genomic and Medical Data" explores the challenges of preserving privacy in the context of genomic and medical data, which is increasingly being used in various fields such as research, healthcare, and insurance. The author argues that the current approach to privacy preservation is not sufficient and proposes a new framework based on the concept of "data minimization," which involves collecting and processing only the minimum amount of data necessary to achieve a specific purpose. The book also discusses the importance of transparency, accountability, and user control in the use of genomic and medical data, and provides case studies of successful privacy-preserving techniques in different countries. Book Title: Privacy Preservation of Genomic and Medical Data Introduction: In today's digital age, the use of genomic and medical data has become ubiquitous in various fields such as research, healthcare, and insurance. However, the collection and processing of these sensitive types of data raise significant concerns about privacy and data protection.
