user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'UltraCOLD ion and electron beams for NANOscience' (COLDNANO), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

COLDNANO (UltraCOLD ion and electron beams for NANOscience), aspires to build novel ion and electron sources with superior performance in terms of brightness, energy spread and minimum achievable spot size. Such monochromatic, spatially focused and well controlled electron and ion beams are expected to open many research possibilities in material sciences, in surface investigations (imaging, lithography) and in semiconductor diagnostics. The proposed project intends to develop sources with the best beam quality ever produced and to assess them in some advanced surface science research domains. Laterally, I will develop expertise exchange with one Small and Medium Enterprise who will exploit industrial prototypes.The novel concept is to create ion and electron sources using advanced laser cooling techniques combined with the particular ionization properties of cold atoms. It would then be first time that “laser cooling” would lead to a real industrial development.A cesium magneto-optical trap will first be used. The atoms will then be excited by lasers and ionized in order to provide the electron source. The specific extraction optics for the electrons will be developed. This source will be compact and portable to be used for several applications such as Low Energy Electron Microscopy, functionalization of semi-conducting surfaces or high resolution Electron Energy Loss Spectrometry by coupling to a Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope.Based on the knowledge developed with the first experiment, a second ambitious xenon dual ion and electron beam machine will then be realized and used to study the scattering of ion and electron at low energy.Finally, I present a very innovative scheme to control the time, position and velocity of individual particles in the beams.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fifth Framework proposal for the project 'Less fines production in aggregate and industrial minerals industry (LESS FINES)'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Every year in Europe the aggregate and industrial minerals industry produces around 1.35 billion tons of blasted rock. During the blasting operations an amount of around 270 million tons of material, smaller than 10 mm to 20 mm is generated. This material, around 20 % of the total production, is too fine to be used efficiently and therefore has to be put on waste dumps. The aim of the project is now to reduce this amount of lost material by 50 % through the adaptation of the explosives and timing procedure to the natural breakage characteristic of the rock. The project consortium is formed of nine partners from four EU member states and consists of the two major producers of explosives in Europe, a large Swedish limestone producer, a Spanish cement and aggregate producer with 11 quarry sites and an Austrian aggregate producer (SME operation) with 3 quarries. In addition four blast research centers are partners in the project.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Supportive action to maximise the performances of leading companies of the European process industry' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The objective of the project is to develop methods, tools and benchmark data, or metrics which the European Process Industries (EPI) can use to :- assess their strategic direction and organisation structure, and the efficiency of their business processes;- provide a basis for defining their IT requirements and future IT needs.The work will build on and contribute detailed data to the generic process industries enterprise model which is to be developed by the PRIMA project.SAMPLE is an essential, complementary action aiming at ratifying the EPI wide generic work of PRIMA against specific sector and sub-sector needs, with the goal of enhancing/testing/tuning PRIMA results for specific application within certain EPI sector/company profiles. SMEs will be the key beneficiaries of this approach. The work will go beyond the current state-of-the art in supporting performance comparisons across sectors and taking account of differences in the strategic objectives of enterprises.The approach is to:- validate the PRIMA enterprise model and develop sector specific interpretations of it, i.e. provide a base on which to select key performance parameters by company critical process.- identify enterprises, especially SMEs, who represent best practice in the process sector, as perceived by a significant sample of their customers. The aim of the project is to analyse 160 enterprises from 10 sub-sectors of the EPI.- interview managers in these enterprises, and to gather comparative data for the key performance parameters by company critical process;- analyse the resulting benchmark data across sectors as well as within sectors, and to incorporate the results in a database.The main result will be a set of databases containing descriptive and/or quantitative data on best practice on critica

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Extending the Optic atrophy 1 dependent cristae remodeling: from models to a rationale for therapy of autosomal dominant optic atrophy'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Autosomal dominant optic atrophy (ADOA) is caused by mutations in Optic Atrophy 1 (OPA1), a dynamin-related protein of the inner mitochondrial membrane. During the last years, we clarified that OPA1 is a multifunctional protein participating in genetically distinct pathways of mitochondrial fusion and cristae remodelling, both impaired by pathogenetic mutations. We extended our investigation on the (dys)function of OPA1 and our preliminary results indicate that (i) OPA1 is a key modulator of apoptosis and autophagy in vivo; (ii) OPA1 is a master regulator of mitochondrial cristae architecture, impacting on respiratory chain supercomplex assembly and mitochondrial metabolism; (iii) increased autophagy in axons of retinal ganglion cells carrying pathogenic OPA1 depletes them of mitochondria; (iv) OPA1 resides in multimolecular complexes that comprise potential keyregulators of its multiple functions. We therefore hypothesize that by engaging in interactions with different partners, OPA1 regulates mitochondrial functions. Its mutations  increase autophagy and susceptibility to apoptosis, especially in RGCs. These multiple regulatory points offer several potential targets for therapeutic strategies that can interfere with the natural course of the disease. In order to verify our hypothesis, we plan to address: (i) how OPA1 regulates mitochondrial metabolism from the cristae; (ii) how changes in OPA1 levels and function impinge on autophagy, especially in RGC; (iii) if the changes in mitochondrial metabolism and autophagy can be exploited therapeutically in vitro and in vivo. This integrated approach aims at unraveling the pathogenesis of ADOA, and therefore to pave the way for its treatment. At the same time, we expect to clarify how mitochondria participate in key cellular

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'CENTRE FOR PRE-CLINICAL TESTING OF ACTIVE SUBSTANCES' (CPCTAS) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Pre-clinical studies serve a vital role in the drug discovery and development processes. These studies can be used to identify lead compounds likely to possess favourable biopharmaceutical properties in humans. European Research Area is developing new methodologies and it is re-establishing standards in pre-clinical studies of active substances. Although in Serbia there are several institutions currently working on pre-clinical testing of active substances, they are usually specialized to only one aspect of testing. Further these institutions are old and inadequately equipped, with the insufficient number of trained researchers and absence of standardization in testing methodology. Thus, reinforcement of the existing capacities, networking and cooperation among existing laboratories and with ERA members are from the crucial importance. The main goal of this project is to establish Centre for pre-clinical testing of active substances (CPCTAS) at University of Kragujevac using the combine efforts of existing laboratories in central Serbia region. The existing laboratories will gain an opportunity to be part of the complete coordinated process of testing of active substances through CPCTAS and their common appearance to potential partners. The main activities necessary for the realization of this project are international cooperation through networking, exchange of know-how and experience and upgrading the research capacities to the highest quality. Central laboratory for pre-clinical testing will be organized at the Faculty of Science at University of Kragujevac, in coordination with Faculty of Medicine. The dissemination of CPCTAS development will be carried out through the website, contacting with Institutions of interest, and finally, accreditation of CPCTAS according

user: Describe how 'Geographies of terror and fear: forced displacement and black communities in Colombia' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Terror and terrorism are contested terms and take on many forms in different places and conjunctures. This project will look at terror and terrorism from a geographical perspective, aimed at providing a better understanding of the complexities of contemporary forms of terror. It will be of wide significance and applicability, as it will enable us to critically examine the workings of terror in a variety of settings and contexts. The particular research objectives are (i) to develop an innovative theoretical framework of 'geographies of terror and fear'; (ii) to examine the impact of terror on social movements; and (iii) to document geographies of terror and fear in Colombia's Pacific coast region. This will be achieved by (i) spending an outgoing phase of 24 months at the world-class Geography Department of the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA), working in close collaboration with my mentor Professor John Agnew, an internationally renowned political geographer; (ii) conducting an extensive literature review, drawing on diverse disciplines such as human geography, social anthropology, sociology and social movement studies; (iii) presenting my own conceptual developments in research seminars to multidisciplinary academic audiences; and (iv) applying these theoretical insights to a specific empirical case study by conducting ethnographic fieldwork on forced displacement among black communities in Colombia. This proposal is of high relevance to the EU as it will (i) allow me to significantly consolidate and widen my research career prospects with an international dimension; (ii) promote the development and subsequent transfer back to Europe of my research competencies on my return to the University of Glasgow; and (iii) provide important data and insights for E

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'EuROPEAN ACCESS SEAFLOOR SURVEY SYSTEMS-2' to be submitted under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

EASSS-2 seeks to extend a programme of work started under the Human Capital and Mobility of Researchers Large Scale Facilities programme, and to make full use of the investment made by the European Union in seafloor surveying systems. Two unique systems devised by the Institute of Oceanographic Sciences Deacon Laboratory (IOSDL) for wide-area geological surveying (GLORIA) and for deep-towed high resolution mapping (TOBI) are offered. Systems like these will become increasingly important in ocean resource assessment over the next 25 years both in European waters and in world-wide markets. Training in GLORIA and TOBI operations will spread knowledge and expertise of seafloor surveying to European Union members that do not have access to complex, leading edge, ocean mapping equipment. The training will produce people capable of running industrial applications of seafloor mapping, and people for managing the sustainable development of Exclusive Economic Zones. The project will be managed by a steering committee which includes lOSDL staff and leading European geological researchers. The project leads to the best possible training through joint research projects including the close cooperation that is generated by working at sea.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'GREEN NUDGEs for sustainable FORESTry and AGRIcultural practices post 2027' (ForestAgriGreenNudge).

assistant: **Innovation**

Behavioural and cognitive biases reduce the ability of decision makers to adopt the best solutions among the alternatives available. Borrowed from pre-existing knowledge in psychology on priming, “nudges” are defined as gentle interventions in a decision maker’s choice architecture (default choice, information, presentation, framing etc.), which enhance the likelihood of optimal choices. ForestAgriGreenNudges will first review initiatives and projects which explicitly or implicitly use Green Nudges to promote the use of sustainable practices in farming and forestry. It will then assess each type of nudge according to two types of criteria: 1) Criteria associated with efficacy in promoting the use of the desired practices over a sufficiently long period and 2) Criteria dictated by ethics and good practice principles (transparency, nudgee awareness, participation/self-regulation, actor-specificity, etc.) that guarantee the quality of the implementation process. Nudges will then be tested in the field and assessed on a grid, reflecting the desiderata of efficacy and implementation quality. The set of successful nudges will be enriched by innovative nudges based on information regarding attitudes and strategies of actors along the entire value chain. The resulting set of nudges together with their corresponding implementation guidelines, and the business models and market conditions which favor their application in agroforestry will be collected on an online tool (iNUDGE Academy) whose target audience will include policy makers, wholesalers, retailers, farmers and foresters. The tool will associate each nudge with implementation rules, possible domains of application and possible risks in terms of efficacy/good practice tradeoffs.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Innovative management of Acacia senegal trees to improve resource productivity and gum-arabic production in sub-Saharan Africa' (ACACIAGUM).

assistant: **Innovation**

In the arid and semi-arid regions of Africa, land degradation and soil fertility depletion are considered to be the major threats for natural resource conservation and food security. A potential solution to land degradation is to promote the utilization, regeneration and planting of a native under-utilized legume tree: Acacia senegal, the main species in the world producing the internationally traded gum-arabic. This tree is very important for the livelihoods of many rural populations and has potential for wider use. Its incorporation into farming systems will diversify agriculture, enhance income generation and contribute to land improvement, soil fertility replenishment and biodiversity preservation. In order to mitigate land degradation and enhance susta inability of farming systems, the overall objective of the proposal is to provide tools to promote use and sustainable management of A.senegal tree resources.The goal is to combine high gum quality and increased gum production with sustainable tree management. The project will use a multidisciplinary approach focusing on: the socio-economic viability of the gum-arabic commodity chain under different tree management and/or site conditions (climate and soil type) on 1) tree ecophysiology and gum production; 2) tree genetics and gum quality and production; 3) biological soil-tree interactions and tree-crop interactions. In a broad range of ecological, cultural situations and farming systems, the proposal will provide insights in the interactions between techno logical choice and multiple market issues including (eco) labelling for gum-arabic produced in different socio-economic settings characterized by community s activities, resource access and control, market access and scale factors. The project will provide technic
