Genome sharing
Sharing data is disclosed. In some cases, sharing data includes receiving a request to share data from a first account to a second account, receiving an indication of a plurality of first account profiles associated with the first account to share with the second account, and establishing sharing from the plurality of first account profiles to the second account, wherein sharing comprises the second account having read access to a subset of nonpublic data associated with the plurality of first account profiles.
1. A method for sharing genetic data, comprising:
providing an account database comprising records for a plurality of users of an application and a genotype database comprising genotype records associated with the plurality of users;
receiving, from a first account, a request to share non-public information with a second account through the application, wherein:
the first account is associated with a first user and one or more first user genotype records,
the one or more first user genotype records are stored in the genotype database, are uniquely associated with the first account of the first user and comprise genotype information of the first user,
the second account is associated with a second user and one or more second user genotype records,
the one or more second user genotype records are stored in the genotype database, are uniquely associated with the second account of the second user and comprise genotype information of the second user;
in response to receiving the request from the first account, notifying the second account of the request from the first account;
in response to notifying the second account of the request from the first account, receiving, from the second account, an acceptance of the request to share non-public information through the application; and
in response to receiving, from the second account, the acceptance of the request, establishing sharing of non-public information associated with the first account to the second account and sharing of non-public information associated with the second account to the first account.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with a user comprises information related to health of the user.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about a likelihood of one or more health concerns to affect the user associated with the account.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about a risk of developing a health-related condition.
5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises health information associated with the genome of the first user.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data of the user associated with the account.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about one or more traits associated with the genotype information of the user associated with the account.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the one or more traits comprise a trait related to taste sensitivity.
9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the trait related to taste sensitivity is a trait related to bitterness sensitivity.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises phenotype information of the user associated with the account.
11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises genotype information of the user associated with the account.
12. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about a particular gene of the user associated with the account.
13. The method of claim 1 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises ancestry information of the user associated with the account.
14. The method of claim 1 , wherein the application is a web application.
15. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, receiving from the first user, an indication of a subset of non-public information to be shared.
16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the same level of information is shared from the first account to the second account as is shared from the second account to the first account.
17. A system for sharing genetic data, comprising:
an account database comprising records for a plurality of users of an application;
a genotype database comprising genotype records associated with the plurality of users; and
one or more processors configured to:
receive, from a first account, a request to share non-public data with a second account through the application, wherein:
the first account is associated with a first user and one or more first user genotype records,
the one or more first user genotype records are stored in the genotype database, are uniquely associated with the first account of the first user and comprise genotype information of the first user,
the second account is associated with a second user and one or more second user genotype records,
the one or more second user genotype records are stored in the genotype database, are uniquely associated with the second account of the second user and comprise genotype information of the second user;
in response to receiving the request from the first account, notify the second account of the request from the first account;
in response to notifying the second account of the request from the first account, receive, from the second account, an acceptance of the request to share non-public data through the application; and
in response to receiving, from the second account, the acceptance of the request, establish sharing of non-public information associated with the first account to the second account and sharing of non-public information associated with the second account to the first account.
18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with a user comprises information related to health of the user.
19. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about a likelihood of one or more health concerns to affect the user associated with the account.
20. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about a risk of developing a health-related condition.
21. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises health information associated with the genome of the first user.
22. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data of the user associated with the account.
23. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about one or more traits associated with the genotype information of the user associated with the account.
24. The system of claim 23 , wherein the one or more traits comprise a trait related to taste sensitivity.
25. The system of claim 24 , wherein the trait related to taste sensitivity is a trait related to bitterness sensitivity.
26. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises phenotype information of the user associated with the account.
27. The system of claim 17 , wherein the non-public information associated with an account comprises information about a particular gene of the user associated with the account.
28. The system of claim 17 , wherein the information the non-public information associated with an account comprises ancestry information of the user associated with the account.
