Abstract: One or more surface features (e.g., capacitive buttons, fingerprint sensor) may be exposed on a surface of a card (e.g., chi payment card). The card may store multiple applications/accounts of a user. The card receives a selection of one of the accounts by the user placing a finger on or pressing on a surface feature associated with the selected account. The card provides credentials associated with the selected account to a terminal. The multi-application card may disable credentials associated with the remaining accounts thereby appearing as a single-application card to the terminal during a transaction.

Abstract: Provided herein are polynucleotides and CRISPR effector proteins configured to be covalently bound together in a CRISPR complex.

Modification of the polynucleotide and CRISPR effector protein can be used to improve the efficacy of target binding and/or cleavage.

Abstract: Systems and methods described herein may improve data migration between databases that store data under different schemas. Such systems and methods may be used to transform data from a first schema (e.g., tabular, such as in relational databases) to second schema (e.g., document-based, such as in some non-relational databases). In some embodiments, data transformation for database migration may be performed using at least one rule (e.g., specified by a user) specifying a logical arrangement under the second schema for transforming a grouping of source data under the first schema. For example, tables under a tabular schema may be transformed into new documents and/or fields within documents under a document-based schema in a manner specified by the transform rule(s). In some embodiments, transforming source data in this manner permits organizing the migrated data efficiently to reduce computing resources needed to migrate the data between databases and/or for future data access operations.

Abstract: Systems and methods for continuous measurement of an analyte in a host are provided. The system generally includes a continuous analyte sensor configured to continuously measure a concentration of analyte in a host and a sensor electronics module physically connected to the continuous analyte sensor during sensor use, wherein the sensor electronics module is further configured to directly wirelessly communicate sensor information to one or more display devices. Establishment of communication between devices can involve using a unique identifier associated with the sensor electronics module to authenticate communication. Times tracked at the sensor electronics module and the display module can be at different resolutions, and the different resolutions can be translated to facilitate communication. In addition, the frequency of establishing communication channels between the sensor electronics module and the display devices can vary depending upon whether reference calibration information is being updated.
