Fig 7. Preferred management of precision health research resources.

The darkest blue shading denotes the most open of the three options, that resources should be unrestricted and made available to as many researchers as possible to answer as many research questions as possible even if that increases privacy risks to participants. The moderate blue shading denotes that research resources should be controlled and made available to qualified researchers to answer any research questions reasonably related to human health. The lightest blue shading denotes that research resources should be restricted and made available only to a few researchers and only to answer research questions stated at the beginning of the study to reduce privacy risks to participants.
