Abstract: The technology includes a roof pod system for a vehicle configured to operate in one or more partly or fully autonomous self-driving modes. The roof pod system is arranged to sit above the roof of the vehicle, for instance at least 10-50 mm above the roof surface. The roof pod may be supported by a set of legs such as cross-rails. The roof pod system incorporates various sensors and related equipment to assist with self-driving operation. Some sensors may be arranged in the main housing of the roof pod, while others can be located in a dome-type structure extending above the main housing. A cabling harness assembly runs wiring and other links between the roof pod and the vehicle chassis.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, including automated methods, for identifying a compound that impacts a characteristic of a lipid raft phase domain, a characteristic of a non-raft phase domain, and/or a characteristic of one or more membrane proteins.
