Can you help Dr. Data find the patient?
Dr. Data is a researcher in scientific data who needs help finding a patient with a rare disease. The doctor has a group of 20 patients but she can only have access to certain information because the patients' identities need to remain secret.
The doctor has three scenarios with different hints and data protection regulations in place with decreasing difficulty. Data protection regulations are applied so researchers like Dr. Data can conduct their research safely and you will understand the importance of them when trying to find the patient.
Are you ready to help Dr. Data despite the data protection regulations challenge?
