The Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease Health Index (CMT-HI)
The CMT-Health Index (CMT-HI) is a disease-specific, patient-reported, outcome measure designed to reliably and responsively measure therapeutic benefit in Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) clinical trials. The CMT-HI may also be used to measure overall patient health in a clinical setting. It covers the 18 areas of greatest importance to the adult...

Strong Constitutive Promoters
The Technology: Researchers at the University of Tennessee have discovered a method to induce strong expression of any gene conferring resistance to pathogens, herbicides, salt, cold, drought, or insects by using two newly identified and recently characterized switchgrass promoters. These promoters stimulate constitutive expression with 2x and 4x greater...
