Patents by Inventor Blake C. Ballif

Blake C. Ballif has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8954337
    Abstract: Disclosed is an interactive genome browser executing within a web browser application, configured to display patient genetic data and additional genetic data tracks which are aligned by base pair. Additional tracks may include public data, community data, private data, sequence gaps, and additional genetic tests or probes which are available. Tests or probes may be ordered by selecting them from a test or probe track. Data in a genetic information database may also be searched using the interactive genome browser. Analyzed patient data may be published and made available to a community of users, which may communicate with one another.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 6, 2009
    Date of Patent: February 10, 2015
    Assignee: Signature Genomic

  • Publication number: 20100167953
    Abstract: Control nucleic acids and their method of use to simultaneously test for numerous genetic alterations that involve an unbalanced arrangement of chromosomes. One implementation increases reliability and accuracy by adding additional nucleic acid to test and/or reference samples. Clones representing segments insensitive to chromosomal rearrangements are placed in non-adjacent target areas of a microarray to avoid interfering hybridization reactions.
