Description of Project.

The MyHealthMyData  (MHMD) project will introduce a distributed, peer-to-peer architecture,

based on blockchain technology that will change the way  relationships between people, hospitals,

research centres and businesses in the medical sector operate. It aims at the

first open biomedical information network centered on the connection between organisations and

the individual. The project will offer a comprehensive methodology

to guide the implementation of data and identity protection systems,

specifically defining approaches and tools to profile and classify

sensitive medical data.  The researcher will work closely with researchers
