SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MEDIATING USER ACCESS TO GENOMIC DATA

摘要

Systems and methods are described for mediating user access to patient records and genomic data. At least one database is configured to store the genomic data. A server is in communication with the database. The server comprises storage, an authorization module and a function module. The storage stores at least one function defining a portion of the genomic data to be retrieved from the at least one database and the generation of a result set therefrom. The authorization module is configured to maintain function permissions for each of the at least one function. The function permissions define conditions under which the function can be invoked against a subset of the genomic data, restrictions on the portion of the genomic data defined by the function, and restrictions on the generation of the result set. The function module is configured to, during execution of the functions, restrict the portions of the genomic data retrieved from the at least one database, and restrict the result set generated therefrom in accordance with the function permissions.

1. A system for mediating user access to genomic data, the genomic data comprising patient-identifiable information, the system comprising:
at least one database configured to store the genomic data; a server in communication with the database, the server comprising:
storage storing at least one function defining a portion of the genomic data to be retrieved from the at least one database and the generation of a result set therefrom;an authorization module configured to maintain function permissions for each of the at least one function, the function permissions defining conditions under which the function can be invoked against a subset of the genomic data, restrictions on the portion of the genomic data defined by the function, and restrictions on the generation of the result set; anda function module configured to, during execution of the functions, restrict the portions of the genomic data retrieved from the at least one database, and restrict the result sets generated therefrom in accordance with the function permissions.
