Software Roadmap
MedCo is open-source and available at GitHub. The latest release is available here. This codebase is under continuous development and more features will be added soon. The roadmap below shows the tentative schedule for upcoming features and releases.
For further information on the available features, development, and deployment, consult our documentation page.
Roadmap
Adoption of the secure analysis platform developed by Tune Insight, which leverages post-quantum cryptography to enable privacy-preserving training of machine learning models and their use for prediction/classification (e.g., for GWAS).
MedCo v3.0.0
Usability improvements: ontology search; auto-completion for genomic annotations.
New features: concept counts in ontology (for privileged users); query of sequences of observations (time series); descriptive statistics for observations with continuous values.
MedCo v2.0.1
Bug fixes, stabilisation and polishing.
MedCo v2.0.0
Many small improvements and bug fixes.
New features: cohort management; advanced query features: numeric and text values, modifiers; loading of RDF data files; computation and visualization of survival curves; results obfuscation; replicated query logs enabling passive query auditing.
MedChain v0.0.1
Beta of the decentralized blockchain-based MedChain system enabling user management and immutable trace of query logs.
MedCo v1.0.0
Software stabilization and pen-testing
Test deployment at three Swiss University Hospitals: Geneva (HUG), Lausanne (CHUV) and Bern (Insel)
Security reviews according to OWASP standards
Integration with SAML-based federated Identity Providers (SwitchAAI)
MedCo v0.2.1
New functionalities:
User authorizations
Different query types: global patient count (aggregated answer from all sites); obfuscated counts (with differential privacy); patient list
MedCo v0.2.0
Upgraded compatibility to PIC-SURE 2.0, consolidation of deployment, architecture change.
MedCo v0.1.0
First working prototype for the MedCo application with a genomic (from cbio portal) and medical (i2b2 demodata) dataset. This release includes: deployment dockers; full ETL (Extract, Transform and Load) with dummy generation; accurate patient counts per site; PIC-SURE/IRCT 1.4 + GlowingBear UI; MedCo technical documentation (WIP).
