CHICAGO – Bioinformaticians at a Swiss teaching hospital have developed a patient-facing application to address concerns about genomic data privacy by measuring and quantifying the risk of an individual disclosing genomic data to a third party, based on the user's personal preferences.

They hope that this software, called GenoShare, will provide a basis for informed decision-making in sharing this sensitive information safely, thus unlocking some of the potential of precision medicine.
