Abstract: The present invention relates to novel Amido-Substituted Heterocycle Compounds of Formula (I): and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein R1, R2, R3, R4, R7, and R8 are as defined herein. The present invention also relates to compositions comprising at least one Amido-Substituted Heterocycle Compound, and methods of using the Amido-Substituted Heterocycle Compounds for treating or preventing a herpesvirus infection in a patient.

Abstract: Fuels cells, electrode assemblies, and electrodes that comprise silicon and/or sol-gel derived support structures, as well as to methods relating thereto, are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, the invention is directed to an electrode assembly adapted for use with a fuel cell comprises: an anode derived from a first planar silicon substrate; an electrolyte; a cathode derived from a second planar silicon substrate; wherein the anode and the cathode are parallel to each other and separated by an interstitial region comprising the electrolyte. In another embodiment, the invention is directed to electrode adapted for use with a fuel cell, wherein the electrode comprises a silicon substrate that functions as a current conductor, wherein the silicon substrate has a plurality of pores that define pore surfaces, wherein at least a portion of the pore surfaces have a catalyst thereon, wherein the catalyst is derived from one or more metallic precursors chemisorbed onto at least the pore surfaces.
