Disclosed are method and apparatus for identifying biomarkers and in particular for identifying biomarkers for use in making clinical assessments, such as early diagnostic, diagnostic, disease stage, disease severity, disease subtype, response to therapy or prognostic assessments. In one particular example, the techniques are applied to allow assessments of patients suffering from, suspected of suffering from, or with clinical signs of SIRS (Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome) being either infection-negative SIRS or infection-positive SIRS.
