Abstract: There is provided a method comprising: receiving a graph comprising nodes with directional edges each associated with a variable weight representing an interaction strength of the respective direction edge adjustable according to a respective range; calculating a current global value defined by a function of the variable weights of the directional edges; calculating a mismatch between the current global value and a desired global value, wherein multiple different combinations of assigned variable weights of the directional edges are associated with the desired global value within the tolerance requirement; determining when the mismatch is within a tolerance requirement representing desired global values; and one of: randomly adjusting the variable weights of the directional edges within the respective range, and iterating the calculating the mismatch and determining when the mismatch is not within the tolerance requirement, and outputting determined values for the variable weights when the mismatch is within

Abstract: A cell culturing system is provided. The cell culturing system includes a cell niche defined by a niche base and niche walls, at least one of which includes a fluid pathway formed therein. The niche wall material is selected capable of enabling diffusion into the niche of a fluid flowing between an inlet and an outlet of the fluid pathway.

Abstract: T cells are profiled with respect to their expression of antigen receptor. The cells are arrayed on a planar or three-dimensional substrate through binding to immobilized or partially diffused MHC-antigen complexes. The cells may further be characterized with respect to their ability to respond to external stimulus in the microenvironment. External stimuli include cell-cell interactions, response to factors, and the like.

Abstract: Cells are profiled with respect to their expression of cell surface molecules, and ability to respond to external stimulus in the microenvironment. External stimuli include cell-cell interactions, response to factors, and the like. The cells are arrayed on a planar or three-dimensional substrate through binding to immobilized or partially diffused probes. Probes of interest include specific binding partners for cell surface molecules, signaling cues that act to regulate cell responses, differentiation factors, etc., which may be arrayed as one or a combination of molecules.
