the health records of 20,000 Stanford Hospital patients made their way onto a public website after the data were used accidentally as part of a job skills test.

The sensitive personal information contained in medical records is becoming more accessible than ever as the United states embarks on a fast and unprecedented shift to electronic health records.

Today, many of these records are stored in databases called health information exchanges or HIES, which are linked together online--making a treasure trove of data accessible to myriad hospital workers, insurance companies and government employees.

Unsurprisingly, social security numbers, health histories and other personal data from breached or stolen electronic health records are used routinely by identity thieves.

Criminals can buy social security numbers online for about $5 each, but medical profiles can fetch $50

which researches data breaches and works for tighter security on people's personal health records.

Technology companies large and small, from IT industry heavyweights such as Google, IBM, General electric and Dell to startups, operate in the market.

Our health records will have an enormous value in the future as genetic profiles are added, Tien said. So whatever rules we have for privacy and security,

Police investigators and prosecutors already use health records in many different kinds of cases, including health-care fraud allegations,

Health information exchanges could increase access, making the long arm of the law much longer by giving investigators access to a much larger pool of data.

which selects the best genotype for fitness in a particular ecological niche. In 1952 The british Nobel zoologist Peter Medawar proposed that aging is the simple result of the failure of natural selection to maintain fitness in older animals with declining fertility.

As fertility wanes, then the chances to correct inappropriate gene expression via natural selection also decline, generating the aging phenotype.

Thus, according to Medawar hypothesis, aging is caused indirectly by the declining forces of natural selection to select the best fitness genes for the aged animal as reproductive capacity declines.

wherein a gene may promote fitness in young fertile animals (and thus be selected for) but become a liability late in life leading to a subsequent decline in fitness.

Modern versions of Medawar and William evolutionary theories of aging are believed still widely today by most experts in aging science,
