Abstract: Disclosed herein is a multi-purpose storage container having various configurations. For example, multi-purpose storage container may be transformed to a cargo box, portable storage unit, tent or other shelter, sled, boat, and the like by configuring one or more components. The multi-purpose storage container may be mounted to a vehicle. Once mounted, the interior of the multi-purpose storage container may be accessed from inside the vehicle through a moveable section of the platform that aligns with a sunroof of the vehicle.

Abstract: Example headsets and electrodes are described herein. Example electrode units described herein include a housing having a cavity defined by an opening in a side of the housing and an electrode. In some such examples, the electrode includes a ring disposed in the opening and an arm, where the arm has a first portion extending outward from the opening away from the housing and a second portion extending from an end of the first portion toward the housing and into the cavity, and the first and second portions connect at a bend.

Abstract: The invention involves a method for modulating leukocyte activity, comprising delivering to a leukocyte a vector containing nucleic acid molecule(s), whereby the leukocyte contains Cas9 and the vector expresses one or more RNAs to guide the Cas9 to introduce mutations in one or more target genetic loci in the leukocyte, thereby modulating expression of one or more genes expressed in the leukocyte. The invention also involves identifying genes associated with leukocyte responses and experimental modeling of aberrant leukocyte activation and diseases associated with leukocytes by introducing mutations into leukocytes. The invention comprehends testing putative treatments with such models, e.g., testing putative chemical compounds that may be pharmaceutically relevant for treatment or gene therapy that may be relevant for treatment, or combinations thereof. The invention allows for the study of genetic diseases and putative treatments to better understand and alleviate leukocyte associated diseases.

Abstract: Example headsets and methods for gathering electroencephalographic signals are disclosed herein. An example headset includes an adjustment assembly including a first support to be disposed on a first side of a head of a person and a second support to be disposed on a second side of the head of the person. The example headset also includes an adjustor operatively coupled to the first support. Further, the example headset includes an electrode strip and a tension strap having a first end operatively coupled to the adjustor and a second end operatively coupled to the second support.

Abstract: Example headsets and electrodes are described herein. Example electrode units described herein include a housing defining a cavity, conductive paste disposed on an inner wall of the cavity and an electrode disposed in the cavity and spaced apart from the inner wall of the cavity. The electrode extends from the cavity, and the conductive paste is to shield the electrode from noise.

Abstract: Example headsets and electrodes are described herein. Example electrode units described herein include a guide defining an opening and an electrode disposed in the opening. The electrode has a housing, a spring, and a pin. The pin is biased outward from a first end of the housing via the first spring. The example electrode units also include a second spring disposed over the opening adjacent a second end of the housing.
