TY - JOUR AU - Sim, Jun Jie AU - Chan, Fook Mun AU - Chen, Shibin AU - Meng Tan, Benjamin Hong AU - Mi Aung, Khin Mi PY - 2020 DA - 2020/07/21 TI - Achieving GWAS with homomorphic encryption JO - BMC Medical Genomics SP - 90 VL - 13 IS - 7 AB - One way of investigating how genes affect human traits would be with a genome-wide association study (GWAS). Genetic markers, known as single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), are used in GWAS. This raises privacy and security concerns as these genetic markers can be used to identify individuals uniquely. This problem is further exacerbated by a large number of SNPs needed, which produce reliable results at a higher risk of compromising the privacy of participants.
