We use molecular simulation to study the ability of excess entropy scaling relationships to describe the kinetic properties of four hydrocarbon isomers: n-octane, 2,2-dimethylhexane, 2,5-dimethylhexane, and 3-methyl-3-ethylpentane. Four dynamic properties are considered: translational and rotational diffusivities, a characteristic relaxation time

The autoxidation of organic peroxy radicals (RO2 ) into hydroperoxy-alkyl radicals (QOOH), then hydroperoxy-peroxy radicals (HOOQO2 ) is now considered to be important in the Earth's atmosphere. To avoid mechanistic uncertainties these reactions are best studied by monitoring the radicals.

Genome-wide studies have identified genetic variants linked to neurologic diseases. Environmental factors also play important roles, but no methods are available for their comprehensive investigation. We developed an approach that combines genomic data, screens in a novel zebrafish model, computational
