Reconstruction of private genomes through reference-based genotype imputation.
Matthew J MoscaHyunghoon ChoPublished in: Genome biology (2023)
Our results show that genomes in imputation server reference panels can be vulnerable to reconstruction, implying that additional safeguards may need to be considered. We suggest possible mitigation measures based on our findings. Our work illustrates the value of adversarial algorithms in uncovering new privacy risks to help inform the genomics community towards secure data sharing practices.
