  • Publication number: 20200199227
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides binding proteins, such as antibodies and antigen-binding fragments, which specifically bind to human CD96 receptor protein (hu-CD96) and are capable of decreasing, inhibiting, and/or fully-blocking immune regulatory effects mediated by hu-CD96. The present disclosure also provides methods of using the antibodies (and compositions thereof) to treat diseases and conditions responsive to decreasing, inhibiting and/or blocking immune regulatory function or activity mediated by CD96 binding to CD155, including effects arising from CD96 interactions with CD226 and/or TIGIT.

  • Patent number: 8589437
    Abstract: A system for separating identifying data from personal data is disclosed. The system includes: a first set of stored data comprising a plurality of identifying data structures containing identifying data; a second set of stored data comprising a plurality of personal data structures containing personal data; a set of mapping data comprising a plurality of mappings, wherein each mapping is between an identifying data structure and a personal data structure; and an application configured to receive mapping data associated with a mapping, determine a mapping associated with the mapping data, and obtain a personal data structure based on the mapping. The set of mapping data is logically separate from the first set of stored data, the second set of stored data, and the application.

  • Patent number: 11514085
    Abstract: An embodiment may involve storing, by a computing device and in a database, a set of pangenetic attributes of a set of individuals, wherein the pangenetic attributes of the set are respectively and statistically associated with products; based on the statistical associations between the pangenetic attributes and the products, determining, by the computing device, product recommendations for a second set of individuals; receiving, by the computing device and from the second set of individuals, a plurality of measures of satisfaction with the product recommendations; based on the plurality of measures of satisfaction, learning, by the computing device, an association between a subset of the pangenetic attributes and a particular product; and storing, by the computing device and in the database, the learned association, wherein the learned association provides a basis for subsequent recommendations of the particular product when a subsequent individual exhibits the subset of the pangenetic attributes.

  • Patent number: 9218451
    Abstract: Processing genetic data includes receiving two or more genetic data sets for an individual from one or more genetic data sources, wherein the genetic data sets comprises data pertaining to the individual's deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA); merging the genetic data sets from the one or more genetic data sources to obtain a set of merged genetic data for the individual, including: identifying data in the genetic data sets that is conflicting, the identified data corresponding to a genetic marker associated with a variation that occurs at a region in the individual's genome; analyzing the identified data to resolve a discrepancy attributed to the identified conflicting data and automatically determine an appropriate value that corresponds to the genetic marker, the analysis and the determination being based at least in part on contextual information; and storing the appropriate value in the set of merged genetic data.
