Systems and processes are provided for securely storing, retrieving, sharing, and selling private data, such as
genome wide sequences, sequence related
metadata, electronic healthcare data,
biological data,
demographic data, medical data, and other
biomedical data, which, in turn, may allow the usage of genomic variations at multiple scales and across multiple
population strata. In some examples, users may be matched with healthcare experts based on a medical need or interest. In other examples, an information-based market for utilizing the available data in a privacy-preserving manner may be provided. In these examples, individual or group data may be tracked, compared, rated, analyzed, and priced to allow individuals to establish connections and / or carry out financial transactions using their data with other participants, healthcare practitioners, and businesses.
