      abstract = {From the breakthrough research of Latanya Sweeney, we have  learned that the secondary use of healthcare data may be  privacy-revealing.  Common techniques for ensuring privacy  focus more on security and validation and are vulnerable to  privacy attacks. Yet, it is only through the secondary use  of healthcare data that we can ultimately achieve Elias  Zerhouni’s vision to “Transform Medicine from Curative to  Preemptive”.    After all, it is the analysis and sharing  of data that is crucial to understanding patterns within  the healthcare population.  But we cannot do this unless we  can ensure the privacy of the individual patient.  In this  paper, we review some of the common methods used to ensure  privacy, including the use of privacy algorithms, and  emphasize the use of differential privacy algorithms and  the application of differential privacy via Privacy  Integrated Queries (PINQ).},
