Potential privacy-preserving network of biological data. A blockchain-enabled ‘biodata’ platform will serve as a decentralized and secure collaborative network for health data. This will enable the secure exchange of healthcare data among multiple stakeholders, including patients, hospitals, government bodies, pharmaceutical companies, research institutes and insurance companies.

DOI: 10.1038/s41591-022-02125-2 Digital transformation in health care has been greatly catalyzed by the COVID-19 pandemic, which resulted in the accelerated adoption of digital health solutions such as telemedicine, remote monitoring and the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT), robotics and artificial intelligence (AI). This caused an upward surge in the generation and flow of health data , which is expected to continue as health care providers and patients grow more accustomed to digital solutions, and health care systems gear up with emerging technologies to tackle the challenges of the future. With this increase in digital health data, a team of clinician innovators from SingHealth anticipate a growing need for privacy-preserving solutions to empower patients to take greater ownership of their health and to enhance the applications of data for medical research and clinical care purposes. In a recently published editorial piece in the journal Nature Medicine , the team explored […]
