French-style genetics v. 2.0: The "e-CohortE" project.

In the digital age, a genetics cohort has become much more than a simple means of determining the cause of a disease. Two-sided markets, of which 23andMe, Ancestry DNA and MyHeritage are the best known, have showed this perfectly over the last few years: a cohort has become a means of producing massive amounts of data for medical, scientific and commercial exploitation, and for genetic use in particular. French law does not currently allow these foreign private companies to develop on French national territory and also forbids the creation of similar entities in France.
