De-identifying Human Subjects Data for Sharing

Description

With funders and publishers increasingly asking researchers to share data, protecting the privacy of research participants and patients is particularly challenging.

Join Johns Hopkins Data Services for an overview of common privacy disclosure risks from personal and health identifiers in data. We discuss how to comply with Institutional Review Board (IRB) and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) guidance for data security within the research team and introduce techniques for de-identifying data shared with external collaborators and public databases.
