Tracking Molecular Development of Sepsis May Lead to Improved Therapies

Scientists at the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB), Sanford Prebys Medical Discovery Institute (SBP), and UC San Diego say they have developed a method for tracking the development of sepsis on a molecular basis. They believe their discoveries could, in turn, lead to more advanced therapies for sepsis that reduce its mortality, minimize the life-long effects for survivors or even prevent the cascade of life-threatening effects before it begins, while reducing the billions of dollars
