TSD also hosts a small HPC cluster and a means of collecting data through online questionnaires or from smart-phone apps.  This talk will explain how USIT handles the fast and continuing development of the TSD research eInfrastructure in a sustainable way with focus on delivering flexible services for research and clinical analysis while still complying with very strict security regulations. <br/><br/>Further, a few of the most significant features and smartphone applications connected to TSD will be discussed and demonstrated, and finally a glimpse into the future of TSD will be given.

Gard Thomassen holds a PhD in Bioinformatics, and participated in the first exome and transcriptome sequencing of tumor/normal samples in Norway in 2010. In 2012 Thomassen became project leader for building a system for storage, analysis and collection of sensitive data (TSD) at the University of Oslo Centre for IT (USIT). TSD is now a national eInfrastructure for research on sensitive data. TSD also delivers IT infrastructure for clinical deep sequencing at the Oslo University Hospital. Today, Thomassen is the Head of the Division for Research Computing and Assistant Director at the USIT at the University of Oslo, Norway.

    SPEAKER:  Nurul Momen  (Karlstad University)
    ABSTRACT: What is the most intimate device that you possess? If the answer is your mobile phone, you'd probably be interested in finding out how apps behave. In one end, we have a powerful device capable of collecting, monitoring, processing, transmitting data and in other end, this device is connected to hundreds of services through apps. Undeniably, users are being subjected to privacy exploitation due to the obvious reason - surveillance capitalism. We intend to turn the table around by simply asking - how do the apps behave?
