  • De-identification of electronic records
    Patent number: 11461496
    Abstract: A system is provided for de-identifying electronic records. The system may be configured to tokenize an electronic record to produce a plurality of tokens including a first token. The system may determine whether the first token is part of one of a plurality of expressions known to include protected health information. In response to determining that the first token is not part of any one of the plurality of expressions, the system may determine, based on a blacklist of tokens known to include protected health information, whether the first token includes protected health information. In response to determining that the first token includes protected health information, the system may generate a de-identified electronic record by replacing the first token with a second token obfuscating the protected health information. Related methods and computer program products are also provided.

  • Method and system for the use of biomarkers for regulatory dysfunction in disease
    Patent number: 9946835
    Abstract: Measuring of the binding of a transcription factor (using, for example, chromatin immunoprecipitation) according to the present invention is provides an improved marker for a disease. These markers can be used in diagnostics for diseases where a transcription factor binding event plays a role. Additionally, they can be used to adjust disease risk profiles for healthy individuals as with typical genetic variants.
