  • Publication number: 20150347954
    Abstract: A system for matching an employer with a job seeker implemented with a processor and memory including a set of instructions executable by the processor. The instructions may be executable to configure the processor to create an initial job posting profile, process a review of the initial job posting profile, create a final job posting profile, process answers from job seekers in response to survey questions related to attributes of the job seeker, create a job seeker profile, and compare a job seeker profile with a final job posting profile to create list of top job seekers. The final job posting profile may include attributes, where an attribute may include an intensity level applied thereto. The intensity level of an attribute in final job posting profiles may be compared to an intensity level of an attribute as indicated in job seeker profiles to create the list of top job seekers.

  • Patent number: 7214532
    Abstract: The invention concerns human cells which, due to an activation of the endogenous human EPO gene, are able to produce EPO in an adequate quantity and purity to enable a cost-effective production of human EPO as a pharmaceutical preparation. Furthermore the invention concerns a process for the production of such human EPO-producing cells, DNA constructs for the activation of the endogenous EPO gene in human cells as well as a process for the large-scale production of EPO in human cells.

  • Patent number: 7008764
    Abstract: The invention concerns a process for optimizing the gene expression in cells. A first aspect concerns a process for changing the expression of a nucleic acid sequence which is present endogenously in a eukaryotic cell by introduction of a heterologous expression control sequence into the genome of the cell by means of homologous recombination as well as site-specific recombinase-mediated excision of inserted foreign DNA and its replacement by further heterologous expression control sequences or/and amplification genes. In addition the invention concerns the introduction of one or several nucleic acid sequences to which an activator protein or an activator protein complex binds e.g. a hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), into the genome of a eukaryotic cell by homologous recombination in order to change the expression of a target gene.
