Claim One:
1. A system for classifying a biological test sample, including: a database populated with reference expression data, the reference expression data including expression levels of a plurality of molecules (polynucleotides or polypeptides) in a plurality of reference samples, the molecules including a set of marker molecules, each reference sample having a pre-assigned value for each of one or more clinically significant variables; at least one processor; and at least one storage medium containing program instructions for execution by said processor, said program instructions causing said processor to execute the steps of: accepting input expression data, the input expression data including a test vector of expression levels of the marker molecules in the biological test sample; and passing the input expression data to one or more analysis programs, the analysis programs including at least one statistical classification program which has been trained to distinguish among said pre-assigned values on the basis of that part of the reference data corresponding to expression levels of the marker molecules; and assigning one of said pre-assigned values to the test sample for at least one of said clinically significant variables using the statistical classification program.
