We would like to integrate the GestaltMatcher Database (GMDB) into our system, PubCaseFinder (Fujiwara et al. 2018) (https://pubcasefinder.dbcls.jp/). PubCaseFinder is a diagnostic support system for rare genetic diseases that has been in operation for eight years. It allows users to input patient symptoms using Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) and obtain a ranked list of diseases based on...

The primary focus is developing privacy-preserving machine learning techniques for handling medical data. One of our key areas of interest is rare disease analysis, which requires access to a substantial number of genomes for successful research. However, obtaining access to numerous genomes presents significant privacy challenges, particularly in compliance with regulations like GDPR. We...
