UChicago docs develop content for new Web app for physicians
Launched early this year, Agile Diagnosis provides a new mobile, web-based application that helps physicians diagnose patients more accurately and efficiently. Built on the work of three University of Chicago physicians and intellectual property licensed from the University, the company is run by five current and former MBA students from Chicago Booth.

Errors in protein structure sparked evolution of biological complexity
Over four billion years of evolution, plants and animals grew far more complex than their single-celled ancestors. But a new comparison of proteins shared across species finds that complex organisms, including humans, have accumulated structural weaknesses that may have actually launched the long journey from microbe to man.
