An electronic system, method, and service is disclosed for storing subjects' genomic and medical information on portable storage devices to be used for private disease diagnosis and for subject-controlled participation in research queries. Using a computer with network access, subjects conduct private disease diagnosis and disease forecasting by downloading genetic queries and running the queries against private genomic data stored on the portable storage device. When participating in a subject-controlled research program, subjects are provided the capability of joining a peer-to-peer network and the choice to decide whether to participate in queries submitted by researchers over the network to subject network members. When subject network members decide to participate in a submitted query, they download the query, run the query against their private data, and anonymously submit the results back to the network.
