The Estonian Genome Project (Public vs. Private)

The following paper is an interesting read on the issues in public versus private funding in Estonia's biobanking / genome project. It doesn't address the privacy issues, per se, but it's worth reading to learn about how such large scale projects have (and still are) unfolded and where the funding is coming from.
