ELSA's Health Privacy Challenge: Advancing AI Privacy in Computational Biology at CAMDA 2025
23 July 2025 - 24 July 2025 Event Liverpool
ELSA announces The Health Privacy Challenge, an interactive opportunity for advancement at the intersection of computational biology and privacy in AI research, as a part of the CAMDA Conference at ISMB/ECCB 2025, that will be hosted in Liverpool on July 23-24, 2025.
Join the challenge either as a Blue Team or Red Team to advance the field:
- Blue Team: develop novel privacy-preserving metho
ds for generating synthetic gene expression datasets that retain biological insights, - Red Team: design trustworthy and realistic membership inference attack methods to assess and highlight potential privacy risks in these synthetic datasets.
Register at ELSA Benchmark Platform to get started and more information, and follow CAMDA Health Privacy Forum for questions and upcoming announcements!
The teams with the best solutions will be invited to present their methods at the CAMDA Conference at ISMB/ECCB 2025, and will be awarded with travel fellowships sponsored by ELSA (https://elsa-ai.eu/) project.
