DNAPrint Awarded "High Tech Corridor" Grant
August 02, 2001 07:59:00 AM ET

SARASOTA, Fla., Aug. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- DNAPrint genomics, Inc. (OTC
Bulletin Board: DNAP) announced today that it has been awarded a "High Tech
Corridor" grant by the University of South Florida (USF) Office of Economic
Development. The grant proposal entitled "A Model System for Cancer
Pharmacogenomics" was selected for funding under the USF 2001-2002 External
Matching Grant program.

This program awards grants each year to outstanding companies located in the
technology corridor of Florida. The aim of the grant program is to apply USF
technology and resources for the promotion of economic growth in the state of
Florida.

Dr. Hong-Gong Wang from the USF will serve as the principal investigator for the
grant and, Hector Gomez, M.D., Ph.D and K. Ponnuswamy, Ph.D. will serve as
the leaders for the project on the company side. The grant was written by
DNAPrint's Dr. Tony Frudakis. The award provides $305,000 over the next year
for the development of an innovative and powerful model system for defining the
genetic variance components that underlie variable drug response. The Company
intends to use the model system to guide and validate its large-scale population
genetics research and product development efforts. If successfully developed and
implemented, the model system would impart a significant competitive advantage to
DNAPrint within the personalized medicine space.

About the Corridor Program:

The University of South Florida has established one of its mission priorities as
promoting regional economic development. "Economic Development," in a higher
education setting, signifies links to the public and private sector for the purposes of
encouraging high-technology jobs for graduates, helping raise the standard of living
through high-technology partnerships, linking with industry to promote funding and
real-world applications for USF's research and academic standing, and in general
identifying ways that the university can better meet the needs of the private sector
and the region in general.
