Ontological analysis using the MeV EASE module identified 203 genes associated with the term 'immune response' among the 4167 significant genes, consistent with the essential roles of T cells in the adaptive immune response.
Following SAM analysis, ontological analysis using the MeV EASE module identified 125 significantly regulated genes, associated with 'regulation of apoptosis' (EASE score: 7.65E-08), which shows that there is an active involvement of the apoptotic machinery during T-cell activation and proliferation.
For in silico analysis of differentially expressed genes, EASE, a module of the DAVID database (Dennis et al, 2003) assigning genes to gene ontology (GO) functional categories, was employed.
For ease of visualization, modules are identified by color.Using pathway analysis, we found that the modules were enriched for a variety of gene ontology (GO) pathways reflecting the functions being carried out by each module.
Modular design also offers numerous potential advantages in terms of design efficiency (reusability of modules, ease of updating or reorganizing protocols) and effectiveness (e.g., greater adaptability for applied contexts, increased therapist satisfaction).
The power of each tool depends on the strength and robustness of the available modules and the flexibility and ease with which the modules can be combined and extended.
Module design permits to confine all RF elements and devices within an enclosed module to ease integration and manufacturing requirements.
Two-dimensional (2D) thin films have the superiority in terms of the ease of material and module fabrication and the reproducibility of the thermoelectric performance.
Because of its speed and ease of use, the module can also be used by professional simulationists as a quality assurance tool and can be used by software developers to speed up validation of the simulation program after each major modification.
Modules are therefore independent Observers and only interact via the EventQueue, ensuring strict delineation between modules and making it possible to switch modules on and off, delete modules, and add new modules with relative ease (for more detail on the architecture of CReST, refer to [5]).

He went on to work for Grumman, a prominent supplier of aircraft to the military, then moved to Houston to work with NASA, for which he helped on the design for the lunar landing module that eased Neil Armstrong and others onto the Moon.
