Chris, the DNAP/Shriver/PSU relationship is a little unusual. The following is taken from the agreement between Mark (CONSULTANT) and DNAP:

http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1127354/000107087602000071/0001070876-02-000071.txt

CONSULTANT is the inventor of certain compositions and methods useful for determining Ancestry Admixture Ratios in individual human beings. CONSULTANT is also the owner of certain DNA samples collected from individuals of various
ancestries, and of certain rights therein. CONSULTANT wishes to commercialize his compositions and methods.

Note that there is no mention of PSU at all in the agreements, despite the wording of the original PR about the relationship:

Both groups will fund the research and DNAPrint will pay PSU a minority share of revenues derived from products that result from the collaboration.

I have often wondered about the "boundaries" here myself!
