Several 2-alkyl fatty acids containing 18–21 carbon atoms, were synthesized by tertiary butyl peroxide catalyzed addition of linear aliphatic carboxylic acids to normal terminal olefins. The products obtained in 35–70% yields were purified by fractional distillation. The acids were sulfonated with sulfur trioxide dioxane adduct and isolated as the disodium salts in 60–80% yields. $$ \begin{gathered} R - CH_2 CO_2 H + R'CH = CH_2 \xrightarrow[{125 - 160C}]{{Perioxide}}R'CH_2 CH_2 - CH(R)CO_2 H \hfill \\ R' - CH_2 CH_2 CH(R)CO_2 H + SO_3 \xrightarrow{{CCl_4 }}R'CH_2 CH_2 C(SO_3 H)(R)CO_2 H \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$

- Abstract
The Energy Modeling Forum (EMF) 37 study on deep decarbonization and high electrification analyzed a set of scenarios that achieve economy-wide net-zero carbon dioxide (CO
2 ) emissions in North America by mid-century, exploring the implications of different technology evolutions, policies, and behavioral assumptions affecting energy supply and demand. For this paper, 16 modeling teams reported resulting emissions projections, energy system evolution, and economic activity. This paper provides an overview of the study, documents the scenario design, provides a roadmap for complementary forthcoming papers from this study, and offers an initial summary and comparison of results for net-zero CO2 by 2050 scenarios in the United States. We compare various outcomes across models and scenarios, such as emissions, energy use, fuel mix evolution, and technology adoption. Despite disparate model structure and sources for input assumptions, there is broad agreement in energy system trends across models towards deep decarbonization of the electricity sector coupled with increased end-use electrification of buildings, transportation, and to a lesser extent industry. All models deploy negative emissions technologies (e.g., direct air capture and bioenergy with carbon capture and storage) in addition to land sinks to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions. Important differences emerged in the results, showing divergent pathways among end-use sectors with deep electrification and grid decarbonization as necessary but not sufficient conditions to achieve net zero. These differences will be explored in the papers complementing this study to inform efforts to reach net-zero emissions and future research needs.- Published

- Abstract
Single-cell omics research has the power to leave a deep impact on modern healthcare. Sharing data widely and freely advances this progress in both the academic and clinical spheres. We developed the Single Cell Portal (SCP) to maximize the impact of this work. SCP enables data sharing, supports dynamic results visualization, and facilitates scientific exploration across a large repository of single-cell datasets. SCP's data contributors maintain full control over how their data are shared and presented, without requiring web development expertise. Finally, SCP supports the entire lifecycle of a research project, from sparking an idea, to fine-tuning the data with collaborators, to sharing results in an accessible and interactive way. This paper highlights the most valuable ways in which SCP helps to advance single-cell research.

- Abstract
Increased attention has been focused on the potential role of nuclear energy in future electricity markets and energy systems as stakeholders target rapid and deep decarbonization and reductions in fossil fuel use. This paper examines models of electric sector planning and broader energy systems optimization to understand the prospective roles of nuclear energy and other technologies. In this perspective, we survey modeling challenges in this environment, illustrate opportunities to propagate best practices, and highlight insights from the deep decarbonization literature on the range of visions for nuclear energy's role. Nuclear energy deployment is highest with combinations of stringent emissions policies, nuclear cost reductions, and constraints on the deployment of other technologies, which underscores model dimensions related to these areas. New modeling capabilities are needed to adequately address emerging issues, including representing characteristics and applications of nuclear energy in systems models, and to ensure the relevance of models for policy and planning as deeper decarbonization is explored., Competing Interests: The authors declare no competing interests., (© 2023 The Author(s).)

- Abstract
Achieving net-zero CO
2 emissions has become the explicitgoal of many climate-energy policies around the world. Although many studies have assessed net-zero emissions pathways, the common features and tradeoffs of energy systems across global scenarios at the point of net-zero CO2 emissions have not yet been evaluated. Here, we examine the energy systems of 177 net-zero scenarios and discuss their long-term technological and regional characteristics in the context of current energy policies. We find that, on average, renewable energy sources account for 60% of primary energy at net-zero (compared to ∼14% today), with slightly less than half of that renewable energy derived from biomass. Meanwhile, electricity makes up approximately half of final energy consumed (compared to ∼20% today), highlighting the extent to which solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels remain prevalent in the scenarios even when emissions reach net-zero. Finally, residual emissions and offsetting negative emissions are not evenly distributed across world regions, which may have important implications for negotiations on burden-sharing, human development, and equity., (© 2021.

- Abstract
Variability is a key feature and challenge of future energy systems, especially ones with emissions reduction targets. Higher variable renewables deployment, increasing electrification, and climate change impacts increase supply, demand, and price variability. These changes provide opportunities for technologies, markets, and policies to mitigate this variability but also pose difficulties for planners and policymakers. This article summarizes the sources and impacts of variability in deeply decarbonized electricity systems, approaches for managing it, implications for modeling, and emerging research needs. It aims to synthesize the main insights on variability from the literature for subject matter experts in a range of fields and consumers of model outputs. This primer is relevant not only to increasing the understanding of interconnected sociotechnical systems where variability is a distinguishing feature but also to highlighting research gaps where interdisciplinary collaborations are increasingly valuable.

- Abstract
In passing the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, Congress reformed and strengthened a section of the tax code, 45Q, which provides tax credits of up to $35/ton CO
2 for the capture and utilization of CO2 in qualifying applications such as enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and up to $50/ton CO2 for CO2 that is captured and permanently stored in a geologic repository. Earlier versions of the tax credit with lower credit values generated limited interest. This change to the tax code could potentially alter U.S. energy systems. This paper examines the effect of the increased 45Q credits on CO2 capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) deployment in the United States and on petroleum and power production. A range of potential outcomes is explored using five modeling tools. The paper goes on to explore the potential impact of possible modifications of the current tax credit including extension of its availability in time, the period over which 45Q tax credits can be utilized for any given asset and increases in the value of the credit as well as interactions with technology availability and carbon taxation. The paper concludes that 45Q tax credits could stimulate additional CCUS beyond that which is already underway., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.- Published

- Abstract
Large panels of comprehensively characterized human cancer models, including the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE), have provided a rigorous framework with which to study genetic variants, candidate targets, and small-molecule and biological therapeutics and to identify new marker-driven cancer dependencies. To improve our understanding of the molecular features that contribute to cancer phenotypes, including drug responses, here we have expanded the characterizations of cancer cell lines to include genetic, RNA splicing, DNA methylation, histone H3 modification, microRNA expression and reverse-phase protein array data for 1,072 cell lines from individuals of various lineages and ethnicities. Integration of these data with functional characterizations such as drug-sensitivity, short hairpin RNA knockdown and CRISPR-Cas9 knockout data reveals potential targets for cancer drugs and associated biomarkers. Together, this dataset and an accompanying public data portal provide a resource for the acceleration of cancer research using model cancer cell lines.

- Abstract
Functional genomics networks are widely used to identify unexpected pathway relationships in large genomic datasets. However, it is challenging to compare the signal-to-noise ratios of different networks and to identify the optimal network with which to interpret a particular genetic dataset. We present GeNets, a platform in which users can train a machine-learning model (Quack) to carry out these comparisons and execute, store, and share analyses of genetic and RNA-sequencing datasets.

- Abstract
Using a genome-scale, lentivirally delivered shRNA library, we performed massively parallel pooled shRNA screens in 216 cancer cell lines to identify genes that are required for cell proliferation and/or viability. Cell line dependencies on 11,000 genes were interrogated by 5 shRNAs per gene. The proliferation effect of each shRNA in each cell line was assessed by transducing a population of 11M cells with one shRNA-virus per cell and determining the relative enrichment or depletion of each of the 54,000 shRNAs after 16 population doublings using Next Generation Sequencing. All the cell lines were screened using standardized conditions to best assess differential genetic dependencies across cell lines. When combined with genomic characterization of these cell lines, this dataset facilitates the linkage of genetic dependencies with specific cellular contexts (e.g., gene mutations or cell lineage). To enable such comparisons, we developed and provided a bioinformatics tool to identify linear and nonlinear correlations between these features.

- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to assess perception of life style change among laryngeal cancer patients. Seventy-five patients (total laryngectomy 35, supraglottic laryngectomy 15, hemilaryngectomy 12, radiotherapy eight, laser cordectomy five) and close relatives responded to a questionnaire and interview eliciting perception of: 1) posttreatment voice quality; 2) side effects of treatment vocationally and socially; and 3) degree of vocal or communicative change associated with vocational or social change. Whereas 43% of the patients reported vocational change and 37% reported social change, 88% expressed satisfaction with their posttreatment voices. This may have been due to the perceptions of the relatives, who generally had a more positive view of the patients' voices. Although laryngeal cancer had an impact on patient life style, patients seldom related this to vocal dysfunction.
