An energy storage paradigm orthogonal to conventional Li-ion battery chemistries can be conceptualized by employing anions as the primary charge carriers. F-ion conversion chemistries show promise but have limited cyclability as a result of the significant

Rotationally resolved electronic spectra of two conformational isomers of jet-cooled Indole-4-Carboxylic Acid (I4CA) and the deuterated forms of the acid (COOD) and amide (N-D) groups have been obtained using a UV laser/molecular beam spectrometer. The in
Adoptive cell therapy is an emerging anti-cancer modality, whereby the patients own immune cells are engineered to express T-cell receptor (TCR) or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). CAR-T cell therapies have advanced the furthest, with recent approvals of
