crisprcasfinder an update of crisrfinder includes a Portable Version enhanced performance and integrates search for cas proteins
Nucleic Acids Research, 2018Co-Authors: David Couvin, Aude Bernheim, Claire Toffanonioche, Marie Touchon, Juraj Michalik, Bertrand Neron, Eduardo P C RochaAbstract:CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) arrays and their associated (Cas) proteins confer bacteria and archaea adaptive immunity against exogenous mobile genetic elements, such as phages or plasmids. CRISPRCasFinder allows the identification of both CRISPR arrays and Cas proteins. The program includes: (i) an improved CRISPR array detection tool facilitating expert validation based on a rating system, (ii) prediction of CRISPR orientation and (iii) a Cas protein detection and typing tool updated to match the latest classification scheme of these systems. CRISPRCasFinder can either be used online or as a standalone tool compatible with Linux operating system. All third-party software packages employed by the program are freely available. CRISPRCasFinder is available at https://crisprcas.i2bc.paris-saclay.fr.

A Portable Version of the go/no-go association task (GNAT).
Behavior Research Methods, 2005Co-Authors: Jonathan F. Bassett, James M. DabbsAbstract:The present article describes a Portable Version of the go/no-go association task (GNAT) that runs on Palm Pilot and Handspring personal digital assistant (PDA) devices. The PDA Version of the GNAT was modeled after a Portable Version of the Implicit Association Test (Dabbs, Bassett, & Dyomina, 2003) and was designed to facilitate measurement of implicit social cognition in field settings and among difficult-to-reach populations. The PDA Version of the GNAT was used to assess implicit attitudes about smoking among 11 smokers and 28 nonsmokers. Support for the validity of the PDA Version of the GNAT was provided by findings that smokers showed less negative implicit attitudes toward smoking, as measured by the GNAT, than did nonsmokers and that these implicit attitudes were positively correlated with self-reported smoking attitudes among both groups.

the palm iat a Portable Version of the implicit association task
Behavior Research Methods Instruments & Computers, 2003Co-Authors: James M. Dabbs, Jonathan F. Bassett, Natalia V DyominaAbstract:The Implicit Association Test (IAT) uses reaction times to measure implicit linkages among concepts or between concepts and attributes. The Palm IAT is a simplified Version of the IAT that runs on Palm Pilot or Handspring Visor personal digital assistant devices. The Palm IAT is Portable, provides precise measurement, and allows for efficient data collection inside or outside the laboratory. Three studies were conducted to assess its practical usefulness. Study 1 (N = 12) replicated a previous demonstration of more favorable implicit associations for flowers than for insects. Study 2 (N = 9) found individual differences in linking the self-concept to characteristics of agency and communion. Study 3 (N = 23) found individual differences in linking the self-concept to characteristics of boldness and friendliness. Reliability of the Palm IAT is similar to reliability of the original desktop computer Version. Using the Palm IAT, one can study hard-to-reach populations in unusual settings.

Design of low-cost Portable ultrasound systems: Review
Proceedings of the 31st Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society: Engineering the Future of Biomedicine, 2009Co-Authors: Jonathan M. Baran, John G. WebsterAbstract:Ultrasound continues to be one of the major imaging modalities used for the diagnosis and treatment of a number of medical conditions. Therefore emphasis on innovation is continually increasing the quality of the ultrasound systems. However focus is just beginning to shift into the low-cost and Portable applications of ultrasound. These systems present interesting constraints which must be considered to transform a standalone system into a Portable Version. This review takes a look at some of the attempts which have been published, as well as some of the issues which have still yet to be resolved. In conclusion, low-cost Portable ultrasound has the capability to be developed and commercialized, but until a suitable replacement to piezoelectric crystals has been developed (possibly CMUTs?) low-cost Portable ultrasound system will be held back by the high cost burden associated with the cost of piezoceramics.
