Recently, data-selling accusing of medical companies, that provide DNA analysis, has made a lot of noise. These analyzes an important source of information about predispositions to various diseases and for that reason they have a value. ENDO Protocol’s solution can help to keep the confidentiality of the sensitive information and give its owners full control over it.

The DNA can tell a lot about us. For example, it can predict the level of intelligence of a newborn and the possibility of a heart attack. One can even learn about the propensity to schizophrenia and other mental illnesses. It is clear that the owner of such information wouldn’t like to share it with anyone.

In fact, it is illegal to sell any medical data without the consent of the owner. However, people rarely read user agreements and often automatically sign documents giving a company the rights to own and manage the results of analyzes. Usually such consent is formalized as "non-commercial researches support" or other harmless definition, which is already a direct deception. With the help of Blockchain these situations will be a thing of the past, because all the information stored in a decentralized network will belong only to its owner and no other party will be able to use it merely technically.

Ready-made results of the clinical analyzes can be transferred to the Blockchain app, created specifically for clinics and medical centers. Developers of ENDO Protocol are able to write such an application in the shortest time. The data, stored in Blockchain, become tokenized, which means that the methods of financial protections will be applied to them. But in addition to storing, Blockchain also guarantees the authenticity of the data, that would not require any additional confirmations or repeated analyzes.

Not only DNA, but all the medicine data, can be stored in Blockchain. Today it preserves in different clinics, because people do not always go to the same medical institution. On the basis of ENDO Protocol, it is possible to write an application that will collect the results of every examination and doctor’s visit. This will allow patients to easily share verified information about their health, when visiting a new clinic that doesn’t know anything about its new patient yet.

Decentralized systems are the evolution of the medicine in general. They will create conditions under which medical care will become faster and cheaper, while diagnoses and medical prescriptions will be more accurate.
