Abstract

A method includes receiving epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual, receiving disability data associated with at least a second individual, and/or correlating the epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual with the disability data associated with at least a second individual. A system includes means for receiving epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual, means for receiving disability data associated with at least a second individual, and means for correlating the epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual with the disability data associated with at least a second individual.

Claims (89)

60 . The system of claim 53 , wherein means for receiving epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual comprises:

means for receiving anonymized epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual.

61 . The system of claim 60 , wherein means for receiving anonymized epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual comprises:

means for receiving epigenetic information for at least an other individual in the form of a database.

62 . The system of claim 60 , wherein means for receiving anonymized epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual comprises:

means for receiving a first set of epigenetic information for at least an other individual; and

means for receiving a second set of epigenetic information for at least an other individual.

63 . The system of claim 62 , further comprising:

means for receiving a third set of epigenetic information for at least an other individual.

64 . The system of claim 60 , wherein means for receiving anonymized epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual comprises:

means for receiving information for at least an other individual including a cytosine methylation status of CpG positions.

65 . The system of claim 60 , wherein means for receiving anonymized epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual comprises:

means for receiving information for at least an other individual including histone modification status.

66 . The system of claim 60 , wherein means for receiving anonymized epigenetic information associated with at least a first individual comprises:

means for receiving for at least an other individual epigenetic information on a subscription basis.

67 . The system of claim 53 , wherein means for receiving disability data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual.

68 . The system of claim 67 , wherein means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual in the form of a database.

69 . The system of claim 67 , wherein means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual for a plurality of individuals including at least the first individual and the second individual.

70 . The system of claim 67 , wherein means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving a first set of disease data associated with at least a second individual; and

means for receiving a second set of disease data associated with at least a second individual.

71 . The system of claim 70 , further comprising:

means for receiving a third set of disease data associated with at least a second individual.

72 . The system of claim 67 , wherein means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving disease data associated with at least a second individual on a subscription basis.

73 . The system of claim 67 , wherein means for receiving a set of disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving anonymized disease data associated with at least a second individual.

74 . (canceled)

75 . The system of claim 73 , wherein means for receiving anonymized disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving for at least an other individual a first set of disease data; and

means for receiving for at least an other individual a second set of disease data.

76 . The system of claim 75 , further comprising:

means for receiving for at least an other individual a third set of disease data.

77 . The system of claim 73 , wherein means for receiving anonymized disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving information including a cytosine methylation status of CpG positions for at least a second individual.

78 . The system of claim 73 , wherein means for receiving anonymized disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving information including histone modification status for at least a second individual.

79 . The system of claim 73 , wherein means for receiving anonymized disease data associated with at least a second individual comprises:

means for receiving anonymized disease data associated with at least a second individual on a subscription basis.
