This session will cover the legal implications and real-world use cases of anonymization, pseudonymization, and synthetic data. From enabling secure data sharing for research and ensuring compliance in clinical trials, the panel will dive into how some techniques can help meet privacy requirements while still fostering scientific progress.  

Key questions 

  • Under the GDPR, how far does anonymization and pseudonymization go, and when can data still be traced back to individuals? 
  • How can healthcare providers implement anonymization techniques without compromising care? 
  • How do anonymization and synthetic data help with sharing data across borders?
