Join JHU Data Services for an overview of the types of identifiers, and how to determine if your data have disclosure risk. You will also learn about available JHU resources to help you with de-identifying data.

Upcoming Training & Workshops
With funders and publishers increasingly asking researchers to share data, protecting the privacy of research participants and patients is particularly challenging. Join JHU Data Services for an overview of common privacy disclosure risks from personal and health identifiers in data. We discuss how to comply with IRB and HIPAA guidance for data security within the research team and introduce techniques for de-identifying data shared with external collaborators and public databases.

Students will turn their work into a great story using the ArcGIS StoryMaps web app. StoryMaps allows a user to create an interactive web presence for their research materials without knowing any HTML, CSS, or Javascript. In this hands-on session with JHU Data Services, you’ll integrate maps, text, and scanned images. You’ll have the opportunity to share your resulting StoryMap with any group or individual you choose or keep it to yourself for later work. No previous experience required.
