Cancer researched data is very sensitive, so you should try to avoid putting this data on a public Blockchain if it contains people's medical particulars. The advantage of putting cancer research data on a Blockchain is that it is immutable and it cannot be changed by people with hidden agendas.

Donations for Cancer research amounts to Billions of Dollars and people who donate to efforts like this, would appreciate more transparancy on a public Blockchain to follow the progress of these experiments.  Wink


exactly the point why they want to use the blockchain. Because of the sensitivity and confidentiality of the data. I agree with your point about using blockchain for putting transparency in donation for cancer. However,
this project has nothing to do with this idea. It concentrates on distributing the important data to the right individuals for the purpose of finding a cure and correct medical procedure for each type of cases.

Thank you for the information by the way.  Smiley Cheesy
