assistant: **Impact**

Understanding how we perceive and interact with others is a core challenge of social cognition research. This challenge is poised to intensify in importance as the ubiquity of artificial intelligence and the presence of humanoid robots in society grows. By innovatively combining psychology, neuroscience and robotics, the SOCIAL ROBOTS project helps prepare us for this future by (1) establishing a new approach for understanding how the human brain processes and responds to interactive robots; (2) delineating the factors influencing how representations of robots and humans are shared at brain and behavioural levels; and (3) exploring how these findings inform the now-rapid development of social robots. To achieve this, we first investigate how young adults perceive and interact with humans vs. robots, the role of physical features and training experience, and the extent to which brain regions mediating social interaction with humans also support robot interaction. Next, to test the role of experience-dependent plasticity on social cognition, we assess how brain and behavioural flexibility toward robots manifests among young children and older adults. Finally, we explore cultural influences on shared representations of humans and robots by extending the first project phase to Japan, the world’s most robotics-rich nation. The SOCIAL ROBOTS project tests a dominant hypothesis of social cognition and is expected to lead to a novel conception of the neurocognitive architecture supporting human-robot interaction. Neuroimaging and behavioural measures will offer detailed and nuanced insights into how brain mechanisms supporting social engagement with people are used when interacting with robots, and how different kinds of experience (e.g., training, lifespan, cultural) influence

user: Describe how 'Decision-making framework and processes for holistic evaluation of environmental and climate policies.' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The dual climate change and biodiversity crises put an urgency for implementing inclusive, just, and effective policies, while their inextricable nature calls for integrated assessment approaches that capture synergies and trade-offs. Mainstream economic methods currently used in the appraisal of environmental policies fail to capture the complexity of the climate-biodiversity-economy nexus. Even though uncertainty, disruption, and irreversibility are inherent to environmental challenges, these are overlooked when designing and evaluating the performance of policies. Policy effectiveness and resilience against other impact areas, such as quality of life, financial stability, political feasibility, innovation is not included in policy appraisal. Rather, policy evaluation is informed by a narrow set of metrics, falling short of encompassing broader considerations of sustainability and wellbeing.DECIPHER employs a systems and multi-disciplinary approach using a diverse set of models, methods, and processes to significantly improve decision-making on climate change and biodiversity and enhance policy resilience and feasibility. Moving beyond state-of-the-art, we will establish a holistic and operational decision-making framework that integrates advanced economic and biophysical models, empirical methods and stakeholder participation tools. The novel framework incorporates environmental damages in the economic decisions of agents and introduces a risk-opportunity approach for decision making. To offer critical insights on system dynamics and risks, the models developed will be equipped with innovative features including improved representations of agent behavior, technology innovation, financial risk valuation and the capacity to assess extreme events and critical tipping po

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'An intelligent modular domestic heating and hot water platform that enables effective integration and use of renewable energy systems'.

assistant: **Concept**

We the SME AGs, represent the European SMEs involved in the design, manufacture and installation of heating, hot water and renewable energy systems (RES). Increasing the uptake of RES is crucial if Europe is to achieve ambitious energy and emission reduction targets. However, despite steep increases in energy prices the uptake of domestic RES is still very limited. The initial investment required means that the payback period frequently exceeds 20 years, which is a clear disincentive to homeowners. This is mainly due to the cost associated with integration of RES within domestic heating and hot water systems, and is especially relevant if a combination of RES are deployed. The efficiency of these technologies is also often limited due to the inherent mismatch between energy supply and consumption. This can be overcome by deploying a suitably sized thermal store. However, this is often difficult due to space constraints in existing homes. Furthermore, effective combination and use of multiple RES is complicated by the lack of standardised intelligent controls and the sheer number and types of systems available. These factors limit the appeal of RES and virtually prevent customers from adding capacity over time. The main objective of SmartHeat is to develop a platform technology for domestic heating and hot water that enables easy and cost effective integration and use of multiple RES. The key enabling technologies include: i) a common, intelligent control system capable of effectively utilising a combination of RES and thermal stores; ii) a modular phase change material store that enables increased thermal storage within existing buildings. We will be able to a) demonstrate up to 50% reduction in installation costs for a combination of RES; b) a 20% performance improveme

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Signalling compartmentalization and vesicle Trafficking at the Phagocytic Synapses'.

assistant: **Concept**

A key feature of the immune response is its specificity and macrophages must be able to discriminate precisely between an infectious stimulus and a non-infectious one and tune their response in accordance with the molecular context in which the target particle is recognized. In recent years, scientists have proposed the concept of the phagocytic synapse, to stress the fact that a particle does not engage only one receptor on the cell surface; instead, an array of receptors interacts with a specific pathogen, either sequentially or simultaneously. Indeed, the tightly controlled and specific responses of macrophages require the establishing of checkpoints for signalling and the phagocytic synapse represent an exquisite site for cross-talk among several signalling pathways. Although we can describe detailed signalling pathways for most of the single receptors acting at the phagocytic synapse, we still do not know how these pathways are integrated during the various phases of macrophage responses. An integrated view of phagocytic synapse signalling would allow us to understand the contribution of each ligand-receptor pair to macrophage dysfunctions in pathology and to design novel immunotherapeutic strategies.The aim of STePS is to provide a deeper understanding of the molecular interactions leading to the orchestration of phagocytic synapses for phagocytosis and activation, two events crucial for immune responses to pathogens as well as for inflammation. In particular, we will focus on three fundamental aspects that bring together the fields of immunology and cell biology: establishment of dynamic platforms for recognition and signalling at the plasma membrane; vesicle trafficking to the plasma membrane; signalling compartmentalization for specific cell functions.

user: Explain how 'A Drosophila model for understanding the basis of Meniere’s disease' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Too little is known about the complex hearing impairments and vestibular syndromes that develop in adults during their life course; new insights and novel scientific models are required. My project focuses on Meniere’s Disease (MD), a multifactorial impairment of the inner ear characterized by varying grades of (i) adult onset sensorineural hearing loss, (ii) episodic vertigo and (iii) tinnitus. During my PhD, I devised new approaches to decipher the genetic factors contributing to MD by combining whole exome sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. I identified candidate genes for MD and validated the expression of the associated proteins in two functional domains of the human and rodent inner ear: the sensory epithelial sheets of the vestibular system and the auditory Organ of Corti. To understand the functional importance of MD candidate genes, and their interplay with environmental factors, requires an experimentally tractable in vivo model. I here propose to use the hearing and balance system of Drosophila melanogaster as an in vivo model of MD. This will involve devising and employing novel experimental tools, such as novel tests of hearing and vestibular function, genome-wide transcription studies (RNA-Seq) and bioinformatics analysis. The project will provide a better understanding of the heterogeneous landscape of adult-onset inner ear pathologies, which will inform new therapeutic and diagnostic strategies.

user: Describe how 'Voluntary agreements - implementation and efficiency' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

During the last years Voluntary Agreements (VA) have been seen as a new policy instrument with increasing importance in environmental policy. In this proposal VA is seen as a contract between the government (or another regulating agency) and a private company, association of companies or other institution. The content of the agreement may vary in relation to eg. targets and means. The private partners may promise to attain certain energy efficiency improvement, emission reduction target, or at least try to do so. The government partner may promise to financially support this endeavour, or promise to refrain from other regulating activities. To evaluate this kind of regulation a number of empirically and fewer theoretical studies have until now been carried out. The main point of interest has been the negotiation process and the written outcome - the VA-contract. Less interest has been on the implementation process, on the efficiency of the agreements and on understanding the process from the decision to enter a VA until the implementation and the final outcome, e.g. increased energy efficiency and reduced C02-emission. The aim of the project is to discover under what conditions VA's can be expected to achieve environmental targets in an efficient way. This will be done by formulating a theoretical framework for understanding the content of VAs and the working of VAs in relation to the negotiation and the implementation process. Based on the meta-analysis country case studies will be carried out by the partners. To ensure a broader applicability of the policy recomendations the resutls will be confronted with peers, politician and civil servants form other EU countries and the European Commission. The research questions to be answered are: What is VA? - what are the diff

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Multipurpose Applications by Thermodynamic Solar', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The proposed MATS Project aims at promoting the exploitation of concentrated solar energy through small and middle scale facilities, suitable to fulfil local requirements of power and heat, and easily to back-up with the renewable fuels locally already available or that can be expressly produced. The implementation of the project will allow to test the CSP (Concentrating Solar Power) technology in a location very advantageous with regard to the solar radiation rate as an example for the diffusion of this technology in other Mediterranean Countrie. Besides, it will represent the start-up for a development of specialized local industries.More in detail, the MATS project is focused on the innovative CSP technology developed by ENEA as an improvement of its Solar Thermodynamic technology based on molten salts as heat transfer fluid. This technology, referred as TREBIOS, allows combined heat and power production from solar source integrated with renewable fuels, such as biomass, biogas, industrial residues etc. by means of standardized units that provide high performances and limited cost.The objective of the proposal is the full scale demonstration of TREBIOS technology through the industrial development, the realization and the experimental operation of a multipurpose facility to be installed in Egypt. The thermal energy produced by this plant will be used as energy source in a desalination unit included in the installation, as well as for district heating and cooling. The use of suitable heat storage systems enhance mismatch of power production from the instantaneous solar radiation availability. These features enable electrical energy production “on demand” and the optimized utilization of captured solar heat by additional loads like desalination units. The integration w

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'The first portable genetic analyser for crop pathogen detection' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The incidence of food recalls has not declined, over the past few decades, which is troubling. To address this, food producers continually evaluate their processes to ensure the highest quality and profitability, through a significant focus on risk management. Risks like drought and flood are considered acts of nature to which consumers are forgiving; however, other risks, such as releasing contaminated food items to consumers, is viewed by the public as preventable, less forgivable and dangerous. There is a need for technologies that will enable precision agriculture and integrate controlled release fertilisers, pest and weed management, and weather forecasting.The aim of this project is to further develop a product that will fully satisfy the demands of the agri-food market. The Terrabio instrument is the first portable analyser that is easy enough to be used by those with no training in microbiology or molecular biology. Terrabio is based on a novel, patent-pro¬tected technique and delivers fast pathogen detection onsite so that producers can monitor their fields and prevent damage in a timely manner. The Terrabio product will empower food producers to change business practices and allow them to deliver fresher and safer foods to consumers while maintaining economic efficiencies. These benefits will translate into economic gains for the users as fast and precise pest monitoring will limit agrochemical use and contribute to higher yields and fewer losses.The aim of the SME Instrument Phase 1 feasibility study is to optimise and validate the business plan that will guide the exploitation and commercialisation of our product. Terrabio’s technology is suitable for pathogen testing in any biological sample and has a wide range of diagnostic application. The success of thi

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Electrification of high temperature and flexible technologies for transforming cement, lime and pulp industry' (ELECTRA).

assistant: **Concept**

ELECTRA demonstrates that electric heating can substitute fossil fuels in the cement, lime, and pulp industries. ELECTRA develops and validates in real life emission-free, electrically heated cement and lime production process in MW scale capable of reaching temperature up to 2000°C. By using low-emission electricity instead of combustion for decomposing calcium carbonate, and by capturing the carbon dioxide produced in the production process, it is possible to run a cement plant with close to zero carbon dioxide emissions providing even negative-emission cement and lime products for the society. Successful implementation of ELECTRA will eliminate fuel-related CO2-emissions from the industries targeted by 30-50% of total process emissions, depending on the industry and mode of operation. Scalability and replicability is showcased by the platform-based solutions offering modularity, and the possibility is there to run in various hybrid modes in a transition period, lowering initial CAPEX. They allow for both new electric installations and revamping of old ones. Platform-based modular automation practices can potentially accelerate electrification by up to 5 years. Different applications also require different properties for lime and therefore variations of electrically heated processes are developed to support and complement MW scale demonstration.Replacing combustion processes with electricity-based solutions and significantly increasing emission-free electricity production is an effective means of mitigating climate change. As one of the ingredients for concrete, cement is the world's most used building material and globally the largest CO2 emitter of all industrial sectors. The results of ELECTRA contribute directly to the ambitious goal of eliminating direct CO2 emis
