Novel Biomarkers for Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia

Summary: Changes in gene expression levels of key molecular receptors associated with fatigue and pain are detected in blood following moderate exercise, together with changes in cytokine levels. This provides a simple, non-invasive test for accurate diagnosis of fatigue and pain related disorders, for tracking patient response to therapy, and...

Improved Algorithm and Software for Determination of Shared Ancestry

Invention Summary Accurate estimation of recent shared ancestry is important for genetics, evolution, medicine, conservation biology, and forensics. University of Utah investigators have developed a maximum-likelihood method for the estimation of recent shared ancestry (ERSA) from the number and lengths of identical by descent (IBD) chromosomal...
