  • Publication number: 20240100337
    Abstract: A method for controlling connectivity between two or more brain regions of a subject includes receiving signals corresponding to a connectivity between two or more regions of a subject's brain, measuring a connectivity level from the signals, and delivering at least one stimulation pulse to at least one target region of the subject's brain if the measured connectivity level is outside of a predetermined range.

  • Patent number: 11899014
    Abstract: The present invention provides sensor cells comprising a receptor that binds to an analyte indicative of the presence of an agent, where binding of the analyte to the receptor triggers a detection event that is indicative of the presence of the agent. In certain embodiments, the detection event is appearance of a reporter detectable by the naked eye. The present invention also provides uses of such sensor cells for detecting the presence of an agent in a sample.

  • Patent number: 11880789
    Abstract: A method for providing candidate recommendations for an open position based on problem solving proficiency and culture matching includes: receiving job posting data from a first computing system, the job posting data including employer culture markers and job criteria values; receiving candidate information for a candidate, the candidate information including candidate culture markers, text submissions, and candidate values; determining a culture match score by comparing the employer culture markers against the candidate culture markers; determining a problem solving proficiency level for the candidate by applying a problem solving algorithm to the text submissions; and transmitting a hiring recommendation for the candidate to the first computing system based on the determined culture match score and problem solving proficiency level for the candidate and the criteria values.

  • Publication number: 20120202251
    Abstract: According to the present invention, a DNA construct of interest is assembled from overlapping subfragments via an acceptor module which comprises the distal end of the construct at a position downstream from a promoter. The construct is assembled distal to proximal via homologous recombination events occurring in the span between that distal end of the construct and the upstream end of the promoter. These recombination events occur iteratively between the acceptor module and alternative donor modules. Successful recombination places one of at least two marker genes under the transcriptional control of an active form of the promoter. As a result of alternating use of two varieties of donor modules, as few as two selection markers may be used to produce a complex DNA construct.
