Roadmap on inorganic perovskites for energy applications

Authors thank EPSRC (EP/P007821/1) and Low Emissions Resources Global for support.Inorganic perovskites exhibit many important physical properties such as ferroelectricity, magnetoresistance and superconductivity as well their importance as Energy Materials. Many of the most important energy materials are inorganic perovskites and find application in batteries, fuel cells, photocatalysts, catalysis, thermoelectrics and solar thermal. In all these applications, perovskite oxides, or their derivatives offer highly competitive performance, often state of the art and so tend to dominate research into energy material. In the following sections, we review these functionalities in turn seeking to facilitate the interchange of ideas between domains. The potential for improvement is explored and we highlight the importance of both detailed modelling and in situ and operando studies in taking these materials forward.Publisher PDFPeer reviewe

Rockport Comprehensive Plan

This document was developed and prepared by Texas Target Communities (TxTC) at Texas A&M University in partnership with the City of Rockport, Texas Sea Grant, Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi, Texas A&M University - School of Law and Texas Tech University.Founded in 1871, the City of Rockport aims to continue growing economically and sustainably. Rockport is a resilient community dedicated to sustainable growth and attracting businesses to the area. Rockport is a charming town that offers a close-knit community feel and is a popular tourist destination for marine recreation, fairs, and exhibitions throughout the year. The Comprehensive Plan 2020-2040 is designed to guide the city of Rockport for its future growth. The guiding principles for this planning process were Rockport's vision statement and its corresponding goals, which were crafted by the task force. The goals focus on factors of growth and development including public participation, development considerations, transportation, community facilities, economic development, parks, and housing and social vulnerability

Clonal neoantigens elicit T cell immunoreactivity and sensitivity to immune checkpoint blockade

As tumors grow, they acquire mutations, some of which create neoantigens that influence the response of patients to immune checkpoint inhibitors. We explored the impact of neoantigen intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) on antitumor immunity. Through integrated analysis of ITH and neoantigen burden, we demonstrate a relationship between clonal neoantigen burden and overall survival in primary lung adenocarcinomas. CD8(+) tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes reactive to clonal neoantigens were identified in early-stage non–small cell lung cancer and expressed high levels of PD-1. Sensitivity to PD-1 and CTLA-4 blockade in patients with advanced NSCLC and melanoma was enhanced in tumors enriched for clonal neoantigens. T cells recognizing clonal neoantigens were detectable in patients with durable clinical benefit. Cytotoxic chemotherapy–induced subclonal neoantigens, contributing to an increased mutational load, were enriched in certain poor responders. These data suggest that neoantigen heterogeneity may influence immune surveillance and support therapeutic developments targeting clonal neoantigens

WHAT ARE WE TESTING FOR? A STUDY ON TEST-OPTIONAL POLICIES AT PRINCETON UNIVERSITY

While student performance at test-optional universities has been studied in the past few decades, the effects of test-optional policies have not been studied in depth at highly selective universities such Princeton University with regards to student performance, academic preparedness, and especially mental health. The results of this research will help inform Princeton and other Ivy League admissions offices about the implications of admitting high school students who did not submit either ACT or SAT scores. In summary, students who did not submit ACT or SAT scores (non-submitters) are more likely to have lower ACT and SAT scores, lower GPAs, and struggle more with certain mental health stressors at Princeton. However, a higher percentage of non-submitters are on financial aid and come from more disadvantaged backgrounds, suggesting that not requiring test scores makes the university more accessible to students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Thus, the administration of Princeton faces a principal trade off if it hopes to increase accessibility and diversity: adopt a test-optional policy and risk admitting students who do not perform well academically or mentally, or admit more diverse students under a test-requirement policy and risk falling on top college rankings lists by lowering the average test score of admitted students
