1. A method for identifying a potential partner, comprising:
- a) identifying a first set of complementary partner attributes;
b) identifying a second set of similar partner attributes;
c) accessing a database containing attributes for a population; and
d) identifying at least one potential partner having both the first set of complementary partner attributes and the second set of similar partner attributes.

Abstract
A method, software, database and system for attribute partner identification and social network based attribute analysis are presented in which attribute profiles associated with individuals can be compared and potential partners identified. Connections can be formed within social networks based on analysis of genetic and non-genetic data. Degrees of attribute separation (genetic and non-genetic) can be utilized to analyze relationships and to identify individual who might benefit from being connected.

12. A method for identifying a potential partner, comprising:
-
a) receiving a user identifier; b) retrieving a user attribute profile, wherein the user attribute profile contains pangenetic and non-pangenetic attributes; c) accessing a database of potential partner attribute profiles, wherein the potential partner attribute profiles contain pangenetic and non-pangenetic attributes; d) defining a set of complementary partner attributes and a set of similar partner attributes; and e) determining a set of potential partners having the defined set of complementary partner attributes and the defined set of similar partner attributes. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15)

16. A system for identifying potential partners for a user, comprising:
-
a) a user interface for receiving a user ID and for collecting data related to user relationships; b) a profiler for establishing a user attribute profile, wherein the user attribute profile is associated with the user and wherein the user attribute profile contains pangenetic and non-pangenetic attributes; c) a database containing potential partner attribute profiles, wherein the potential partner attribute profiles contain pangenetic and non-pangenetic attributes; and d) a processor for matching the user attribute profile with one or more potential partner attribute profiles wherein the matching is performed based on matching a set of complementary attributes and a set of similar attributes.

17. A method for establishing connections within a genetic based social network, comprising;
-
a) accessing a first user attribute profile wherein the first user attribute profile contains pangenetic attributes; b) accessing a second user attribute profile wherein the second user attribute profile contains pangenetic attributes; and c) determining a degree of separation between the first user and the second user. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)

21. A method of establishing a genetic based social network, comprising:
-
a) establishing a set of non-pangenetic attributes as the basis for establishment of a group within the social network; b) accessing a database containing attribute profiles for a plurality of individuals, wherein the attribute profiles contain pangenetic and non-pangenetic attributes; c) identifying a set of individuals having the set of non-pangenetic attributes; d) inviting one or more of the identified individuals to join the group; and e) creating links between individuals accepting the invitation to join the group wherein the links allow for analysis of the pangenetic attributes of the group. - View Dependent Claims (22)

23. A method of establishing genetic links within a social network, comprising:
-
a) receiving a request from a first user within a social network to perform a comparison of pangenetic data with a second user within the social network, wherein the first user and the second user are connected by n degrees of non-pangenetic attribute separation; b) performing a comparison of the pangenetic attributes of the first user with the pangenetic attributes of the second user to determine a degree of pangenetic separation; and c) storing the degree of pangenetic separation associated with the first user and the second user along with the degree of non-pangenetic association associated with the first user and the second user. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25)

26. A genetic based social network, comprising:
-
a) a database containing attribute profiles for a plurality of individuals, wherein the attribute profiles contain pangenetic and non-pangenetic attributes; b) a linking subsystem for maintaining links between the individuals; and c) a comparison engine for determining pangenetic overlap between the individuals.
