Can insurance companies, employers, or my relatives find out about the results of research on samples?
No, they cannot. Your samples and information are stored in a de-identified fashion – that means any information that can identify you, such as your name, address, or date of birth, is taken off your data and samples and stored separately. We will only grant access to this de-identified data for ethically and scientifically approved research into the causes and treatment of disease.
