OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The goal was to develop foundational research knowledge and skills for clinicians interested in conducting clinical research. Emphasis was on the development of a research question and the iterative process necessary to transform a research question into a well-designed study and well-articulated research proposal for pilot grant funding. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The course took place over 10 sessions, May - September 2021. The application process required participants to provide an initial self-assessment of research skills and a proposed research question. 25 clinicians applied to the program, 11 were accepted, and 9 enrolled. All clinicians in the initial cohort were clinical faculty physicians. Because of the geographical distance of participants as well as the ongoing pandemic, the course used a blended learning approach with both synchronous and asynchronous learning. Participants viewed online lectures on core content coupled with live virtual sessions with opportunities for discussion and application of the content. Relevant CTSI and institutional resources were highlighted in each session. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Of the 9 clinician participants who enrolled in Research 101, the average attendance per session was 67% or 6 people. 89% or 8 participants attended five or more sessions. 5 participants submitted a letter of intent for the annual CTSI Pilot grant program, and of the five, two were invited to submit a grant application. Formal evaluation of the program is currently ongoing and will close on November 30th, at which time full results will be available. Research competencies will be assessed through a pre-post comparison, each self-rated by course participants. Additionally, participants were asked to provide input on the most and least valuable components of the course, as well as any open-ended feedback. Research 101 leadership will use these results to improve the course for future participants. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: A learning health system (LHS) is recognized as an essential means by which research evidence is translated into practice. Important to realizing the LHS vision is the engagement of clinicians into the generation and translation of research into practice. Research 101 is an important way to bolster clinician engagement in translational research.

Monoclonal antibody therapeutics to treat coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have been authorized by the US Food and Drug Administration under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). Many barriers exist when deploying a novel therapeutic during an ongoing pandemic, and it is critical to assess the needs of incorporating monoclonal antibody infusions into pandemic response activities. We examined the monoclonal antibody infusion site process during the COVID-19 pandemic and conducted a descriptive analysis using data from 3 sites at medical centers in the United States supported by the National Disaster Medical System. Monoclonal antibody implementation success factors included engagement with local medical providers, therapy batch preparation, placing the infusion center in proximity to emergency services, and creating procedures resilient to EUA changes. Infusion process challenges included confirming patient severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) positivity, strained staff, scheduling, and pharmacy coordination. Infusion sites are effective when integrated into pre-existing pandemic response ecosystems and can be implemented with limited staff and physical resources.

Experiments on the National Ignition Facility show that multi-dimensional effects currently dominate the implosion performance. Low mode implosion symmetry and hydrodynamic instabilities seeded by capsule mounting features appear to be two key limiting factors for implosion performance. One reason these factors have a large impact on the performance of inertial confinement fusion implosions is the high convergence required to achieve high fusion gains. To tackle these problems, a predictable implosion platform is needed meaning experiments must trade-off high gain for performance. LANL has adopted three main approaches to develop a one-dimensional (1D) implosion platform where 1D means measured yield over the 1D clean calculation. A high adiabat, low convergence platform is being developed using beryllium capsules enabling larger case-to-capsule ratios to improve symmetry. The second approach is liquid fuel layers using wetted foam targets. With liquid fuel layers, the implosion convergence can be controlled via the initial vapor pressure set by the target fielding temperature. The last method is double shell targets. For double shells, the smaller inner shell houses the DT fuel and the convergence of this cavity is relatively small compared to hot spot ignition. However, double shell targets have a different set of trade-off versus advantages. Details for each of these approaches are described.

The prevalence of antibodies to human T-cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-1) was determined in high-risk groups and normal adults in Egypt. Among 647 individuals tested, 6 (0·9%) were confirmed positive by western blot analysis. These included 2 (0·7%) of 279 drug addicts, 1 (3·3%) of 30 patients with sexually transmitted diseases, and 3 (2·2%) of 133 healthy individuals. Antibody was not detected in 47 blood recipients or 158 prostitutes. There was no correlation between sex or geographical location and HTLV-I infection. Fifty-three of the 647 sera (8%) were initially reactive by ELISA, but only 12 sera were repeatedly reactive. Since only 4 of these repeatedly reactive sera were confirmed by the western blot, the frequency of false positives using the DuPont screening ELISA was 1·2% (8/643). Two additional sera, confirmed positive by western blot, had been reactive, but not repeatedly, by ELISA. In comparison to the prevalence of HTLV-I antibody among risk groups in many parts of the world, the prevalence in Egypt was low.

A new matrix assisted pulsed laser evaporation (MAPLE) technique has been developed at the Naval Research Laboratory, to deposit superior quality ultra thin, and uniform films for a range of highly functionalized polymeric materials. The MAPLE technique is carried out in a vacuum chamber, and involves directing a pulsed laser beam onto a frozen target, consisting of a polymer dissolved in a solvent matrix. The laser beam evaporates the surface layers of the target, where both solvent and polymer molecules are lifted into the evacuated gas phase. A solvent and polymer plume are generated incident to the substrate being coated. Si(111), and NaCl substrates coated with thin layers of polymer have been examined by a range of techniques including: optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy. Under optimum conditions the native polymer was transferred to the substrate without chemical modification as a highly uniform film.
The MAPLE technique offers a number of advantages over conventional polymer deposition techniques, including the ability to precisely and accurately coat a relatively large or small targeted area with an ultrathin, and uniform coating with sub monolayer thickness control. Conventional pulsed laser ablation techniques can be utilized for coating a limited number of polymers, but we have found that for highly functionalized materials the native polymer structure is almost completely lost in the process. In contrast, when the MAPLE conditions are optimized the deposition of even highly functionalized polymeric materials proceeds with little effect on the intrinsic polymer structure.

The electrical conductivity of high temperature polymers (i.e. polyimide) has been changedpermanently from 10−17 Ω−1 cm−1 to 10 Ω−1 cm−1 by excimer laser irradiation. The conduction mechanism is found to be phonon assisted variable range hopping between small (∼10 nm) carbon clusters that form a macroscopic percolation cluster. The critical concentration of carbon clusters is found to be Pc = 0.24 ± 0.02 and the critical exponent of the insulator-conductor transition is t = 1.97 ± 0.25.

Let F be a local field of characteristic zero, with q elements in its residue field, ring of integers uniformizer ωF and maximal ideal . Let GF = GL2(F). We fix Haar measures dg and dz on GF and ZF, the centre of GF, so that
meas(K) = meas
where K = GL2() is a maximal compact subgroup of GF. If T is a torus in GF we take dt to be the Haar measure on T such that
means(TM)=1
where TM denotes the maximal compact subgroup of T.

If L is a cyclic extension of Q of prime degree p, then the class number of L is divisible by p if and only if more than one prime divides the discriminant D, of L. If p ≠ 2, then this condition is equivalent to the existence of more than one cyclic extension of Q of degree p with discriminant equal to D. In this paper we generalize these results to non-galois extensions of Q of degree p whose normal closures have degree 2p over Q.

Let K3 be a non-Galois cubic extension of the rationals and let K6 be its normal closure. Under K6 there is a unique quadratic field K2. For i = 2, 3, 6 we define Cli to be the 3-class group of Ki and ri; to be the rank of Cli. In an earlier paper we examined the structure of Cl3 when K2 is complex and K6/K2 is unramified. In this paper we remove these restrictions and obtain similar results.

Let K3 be a non-Galois cubic extension of the rationals and let K6 be its normal closure. Under K6 there is a unique quadratic field K2. For i = 2, 3, 6 we define C1i; to be the 3-class group of K2 and ri to be the rank of Cli. We suppose that K2 is complex and that K6/K2 is unramified. Our main result is
