Responsible Genomic Data Sharing

Dr. Jiang is a Christopher Sarofim associate professor and center director for health security and phenotyping in the School of Biomedical Informatics (SBMI) at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth). Before joining UThealth, he was an associate professor with tenure in the Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI) at UCSD. He is an associate editor of BMC Medical Informatics and Decision Making and served as the editorial board member of Journal of American Medical Informatics Association. He works primarily in health data privacy and predictive models in biomedicine. He received CPRIT Rising Stars and UT Stars awards and best and distinguished paper awards from American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) Joint Summits on Translational Science (2012, 2013, 2016). He is one of the organizers of the iDASH Genome Privacy Workshops, which was reported by Nature News and GenomeWeb. Dr. Haixu Tang is a Professor of Computer Science and the Director of Data Science Academic Programs in School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering at Indiana University, Bloomington. His primary research interests include algorithmic statistical problems in genomics and proteomics, and has been working on genome privacy protection algorithms since 2008. He received the NSF CAREER Award in 2007, and the PETS award for his work in genome privacy in 2009. He is one of the organizers of the iDASH Genome Privacy Workshops.
