Abstract: Various examples described herein are directed to systems and methods for providing a user interface at a plurality of computing devices. A first interface application executing at a first computing device may determine a first state for a user interface. The first interface application may detect a set of user computing devices for providing the user interface to a user and select a second computing device that is in the set of user computing devices based at least in part on the first state of the user interface. The first interface application may send a description of the user interface to the second computing device.

Abstract: Provided herein are, inter alia, recombinant cytokine receptor binding proteins including a cytokine domain bound to an occlusion domain and a receptor domain through a first and second linker, respectively. The occlusion domain hinders the cytokine domain from binding to its cognate receptor. The chemical linkers (e.g., first and/or second chemical linker) included in the recombinant proteins provided herein may be cleavable and thereby conveying disease site specificity to the compositions provided herein. In the presence of a tumor-specific protease the first and/or second chemical linker is cleaved and the cytokine domain is released from the occlusion domain and the receptor domain and is capable of binding its cognate receptor. The recombinant proteins provided herein may therefore have multi-specific binding capabilities useful for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes.

Abstract: A variable efficiency filter media. The variable efficiency filter media is a composite media formed of at least two different types of filter media, such as standard efficiency media and high efficiency media. The variable efficiency filter media has at least two different efficiency levels. The different efficiency levels can be spread across different zones. The filter media types for both the standard and high efficiency media can be spun media, melt blown media, nanofiber media, micro-glass media, cellulose media, carded staple fiber media, and the like. The variable efficiency filter media may be produced by any of an air laid or wet laid process.
