Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and methods for displaying genomic and clinical information. More specifically, the invention is directed to a system for collecting, displaying, and modeling an individual's genomic makeup, physiological characteristics, healthcare history, and lifestyle to enable personalized medicine, better understand the transition from health to disease, and identify additional risk factors for disease. Certain embodiments of the system facilitate generating and displaying a patient record on a graphical user interface. Additionally, embodiments of the invention allow users through the use of user interface to annotate, augment, and overall interact with the clinically more accurate and detailed user interface.

Abstract: A peer-to-peer energy sharing network includes a common bus; a first node including a first local bus electrically connected to the common bus, at least one of a load, a storage device, and a generating capacity electrically connected to the first local bus through a first interface device, and a first local controller in communication with the first interface device; and a second node including a second local bus electrically connected to the common bus, at least one of a load, a storage device, and a generating capacity electrically connected to the second local bus through a second interface device, and a second local controller in communication with the second interface device, wherein the each interface device is controlled by its local controller to selectively pass electrical energy to and/or from the common bus via its local bus.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling power flow in a hybrid power system includes a controller in communication with the hybrid power system. The controller is also in communication with at least one knowledge system to receive information related to power generation or power consumption within the hybrid power system. The controller generates a control command for each of the power converters in the hybrid power system and maintains a log of power flow to and from each device in the hybrid power system. The controller is also in communication with a provider of the utility grid and may generate the control commands for each of the power converters in response to commands provided from the provider of the utility grid.

Abstract: A method for joining incompatible materials is provided that includes the steps of welding a first component formed of a thermoplastic material and a second component of a porous material to one another to form a subassembly and optionally molding a third component around the subassembly. The method enables the incompatible first component and the third component to be joined to one another, such as to form an electrolyte battery flow frame around an ion exchange material and/or microporous separator material in order to form a separator for an electrolyte flow battery.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for facilitating compliance with a medication regimen by a user. The method includes the steps of providing the user with a medication dispensing unit for dispensing medication to the user and a wireless transceiver operatively coupled to a controller of the medication dispensing unit, downloading a set of instructions for controlling the medication unit from a server to the controller of the medication dispensing unit through the wireless transceiver and downloading a set of instructions that instruct the user on how to use the dispensed medication through the wireless transceiver to the user.
