user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Novel current control for climate neutral energy infrastructure'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Low Voltage DC power systems are one of the most promising technologies for a clean and efficient energy transition, especially for local generation and storage. However, safety considerations prevent rapid adoption of the proposed solutions. Our project aims at developing new current limiting (CL) technology, based on high-mobility materials and the extraordinary magnetoresistance (EMR) effect, as well as their integration into Direct Current (DC)-and hybrid AC/DC microgrid infrastructures.  A system design approach will be adopted to find device layouts suitable for five selected use-cases: native DC-supply loads, battery systems, photovoltaic, microgrids and bidirectional EV Supply Equipment (EVSE) to enable the V2X (focus on V2G) technology deployment. The devices are fabricated and tested for proof of concept. The potential of this technology is further evaluated by simulation means aiming at standardization, and the development of DC- and hybrid microgrids steady state operation strategies. The proposed research results in passive, multifunctional, more robust, and safer CL devices for DC applications, with reduced cost, size, and environmental footprint, when compared to the state-of-the-art.Our technology can be a breakthrough for circuit protection, aiming at demonstrating through end-to-end, design-to-application innovation (design supported by LCA guidance, simulation, fabrication, and lab-based testing) that a comprehensive, advanced solution encompassing EMR-enabled current limiting devices, can meet the current needs of the DC microgrid market. It can establish European industrial leadership with a technology that is critical for the on-going energy transition which makes it a suitable goal for the European Green Deal.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Innovative Solid Oxide Electrolyser Stacks for Efficient and Reliable Hydrogen Production' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The RelHy project targets the development of novel or improved, low cost materials (and the associated manufacturing process) for their integration in efficient and durable components for the next generation of electrolysers based on Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOEC).  It is specifically tailored for  1) Optimisation of novel or improved cell, interconnect and sealing materials, 2) Achievement of innovative designs for SOE stacks to improve durability. As such, it is positioned as a bridge between currently good performing electrolysis cells and their efficient and reliable integration into advanced stacks to pave the way for the production of a new generation of electrolysers.   To achieve these goals, the RelHy project is based on the coupled development of instrumented single repeat units and stacks and of associated simulation tools (from cell to stack scale). This mixed experimental and simulation approach will be used on several batches of materials - to give specifications for novel or improved materials and evaluate them, where special attention is paid to material compatibility (between electrodes, electrolyte, coating, interconnects and sealing). - to propose innovative designs able to overcome the present limiting parameters and to increase stack reliability, durability and performance.  These material and design innovations will be validated at laboratory scale on a 25-cell stack prototype and its competitiveness will be assessed.  Since the project is centered on R&D activities, the RelHy multidisciplinary European consortium is merging expertise from two university laboratories and three research centres already recognised for material development and cell production, instrumentation and testing, and modelling (DTU-Risoe, Imperial College, ECN, EIFER a

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Biomedical textiles from dibutyrylchitin and chitin' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

On the European market there is a lack of innovative biomaterials that aid in regeneration of wound tissue. The project: aims the design and development: of optimal textile forms for medical applications made from dibutyrylchitin (DBC) and chitin, from fishery byproducts. Recently a method for the synthesis of dibutyrylchitin is developed. DBC is easily soluble in common recyclable solvents and has film/fibre forming properties. Chitin can be regenerated (RC). The products are assumed to have wound healing properties. This opens the way for the development of novel functional biomaterials made from DBC and RC. Technologies for the production of fibres, yarns, non-wovens and knittings will be developed. The textiles will be designed to requirements and characterised on mechanical, physico-chemical and biochemical-medical (in vitro, in vivo) properties. Initiations for approval of medical products will be made.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Understanding of Degradation Mechanisms to Improve Components and Design of PEFC' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main objective of the planned project DECODE is to increase the life-time of fuel cells for automotive applications. It is well-known that liquid water plays a crucial role in the degradation processes of fuel cells. However, this specific degradation influence is not addressed sufficiently in the present research and development efforts. Therefore, DECODE aims at identifying characteristic behavior regarding degradation and malfunctions with special emphasis on liquid water interactions. The work will quantitatively elucidate fundamental degradation mechanisms with PEFC under steady-state, cycling and start-up/shut-down conditions. The elucidated mechanisms will be used to improve PEFC durability. The project plan is spitted into three phases: In the first short phase, - the specification and definition phase -, materials, components as well as testing and opera¬ting conditions will be specified. In the second phase, - the analysis phase - the individual degradation processes of the components and their interactions will be investigated. This includes the fundamental investigation of membrane and electrodes in work package 3, the analysis of porous media in work package 4 and the investigation of degradation of bipolar plates in work package 5. The investigations in these three work packages involve novel methodology, sophisticated characterization of components, and modeling of water transport and water interactions with components. In the third phase the knowledge of the degradation processes and mechanisms will be use to generate technological progress. It includes development of novel fuel cell operating strategies to mitigate degradation phenomena and to improve components and single cell design (also by moderate modification of materials).

user: Describe how 'Dualities ANd Correspondences IN algebraic Geometry via derived categories and noncommutative methods' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

In the last few years, our understanding of algebraic geometry has undergone a radical reinterpretation as many classical problems are being solved using derived categories. These are a tool to translate geometric input into algebraic notions, retaining much of the initial information but at the same time allowing extra flexibility to work in an algebraic setting.The purpose of the proposal is to gain a deeper understanding of the behavior of derived categories and contribute to the unity of the subject, connecting several of its subfields in a clear, transparent way. In turn, we will exploit the power of derived categories and apply them to more classical fields to gain insight that would be impossible with traditional methods: applications will include classical algebraic geometry via singularity theory, but also symplectic geometry via Homological Mirror Symmetry.Project DANCING will use a wide array of tools including algebraic geometry, noncommutative algebra, representation theory, DG and A-infinity methods. This innovative, multifaceted approach will allow us on one hand to understand better the abstract underpinnings of derived categories and their relation to other homological constructions, and on the other hand to use cutting-edge new techniques like stability conditions and a derived-categorical duality to have a concrete impact on our general knowledge of geometry.Project DANCING will take advantage of the world-class research group at the School of Mathematics of the University of Edinburgh, and the complementary skill set of the applicant, to create high impact research.Knowledge transfer forms a central part of DANCING and will be bi-directional. The applicant will further take advantage of training events and teaching opportunities. By the end of DANCIN

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Ekoservis Membrane Modular Filtration system' (2014-2020) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

EKOservis Membrane Modular Filtration SystemThe intention of the innovation project itself is to solve the technological system of wastewater treatment using flat sheet membranes to achieve a high degree of cleaning. The project focuses on municipal and industrial sewage treatment plants meeting the requirements of Directive 76/160/EEC concerning the quality of bathing water.The project contributes to the protection of water and water resources, to the re-use of waste water, and to the improvement of water quality in watercourses and reservoirs. The project provides advanced solutions for water purification and its further use in a sustainable manner.The aim of the innovation project is to introduce a process of membrane filtration into practice. We want to show that the opportunities for use of membrane filtration are wide - ranging from a single family house to the water treatment plants with a capacity of more than 50,000 m3 of purified waste water per day, which are intended for cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Optical Injection Locked Modulator' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Video, mobile and cloud have driven network bandwidth to grow at astonishing rates, estimated at about 40% growth year over year. Between 2000 and 2009 channel data rates in commercial optical fibre networks were peaking at 10Gb/s. Introduction of coherent technology caused a step change and around 2011 rates jumped to 100Gb/s for long haul transmission. It was enabled by advances in digital signal processing, narrow linewidth lasers, coherent receivers and optical modulators. Such modulators are used to control both the level and phase of the optical signal to send data and are the main topic of this proposal. State of the art modulators are based on a common optical transmitter circuit  (a Mach-Zehnder Modulator) to encode the data. In 2012 researchers at the Univ. Southampton invented a new device and applied for a patent on the concept. It is based on optical injection locking (OIL) and allows directly modulated lasers to be used to encode the data. Demonstration systems were developed in partnership with Eblana Photonics who provided the OIL laser devices and is the exclusive licensee to the patent IP. Eblana, established in Dublin in 2001, provides laser sources for sensing and high volume comms applications. The technique has received strong interest from the scientific community and, significantly, network system manufacturers who have stated eagerness to trial prototypes. Differentiators are that the output is linear, drive electronics are fundamentally simpler and uses half the number of high speed connections compared to the competition. Key advantages include low cost, low power consumption and amenable to miniaturisation to very small sizes. Coherent 100G transmission will migrate to shorter reach and wider usage in metropolitan networks (60-800km range) an

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'MicroRNA determinants of the balance between effector and regulatory T cells in vivo'.

assistant: **Objectives**

T lymphocytes display potent pro- or anti-inflammatory properties, which typically associate with distinct effector (Teff) versus regulatory (Treg) cell subsets. Based on published and our preliminary data showing a major impact of microRNAs on T cell differentiation and (auto)immune pathology,  my proposal aims to dissect the miRNA networks that control the balance between Teff and Treg subsets in vivo, in various experimental models of infection and autoimmunity. We will focus on three critical  mediators of T cell functions: interferon-gamma (IFN-g) and interleukin-17A (IL-17), highly pro-inflammatory Teff cytokines; and Foxp3, the transcription factor that confers Treg  suppressive properties. To track the activity of these key genes, we will generate a new Ifng/ Il17/ Foxp3 triple reporter mouse, from which we will isolate Teff and Treg subsets to determine their genome-wide miRNA profiles and specific signatures in vivo. We will investigate both natural (thymic-derived and present in naïve mice) and induced (in the periphery upon challenge) Teff and Treg subsets, as they make distinct contributions to the immune response. We will identify miRNAs selectively expressed in Teff (Ifng+ or Il17+) versus Treg (Foxp3+) subsets of various lineages (CD4+, CD8+, gamma-delta or NKT) in each in vivo model; assess whether they are induced during thymic development or upon peripheral activation; and determine the robustness of subset-specific miRNA profiles across various in vivo challenges. We will then use loss- and gain-of-function strategies to define the individual miRNAs that impact Teff or Treg differentiation and  disease pathogenesis; dissect the external cues and intracellular mechanisms that regulate miRNA expression; and identify the mRNA networks controlled by key

user: Describe how 'Inert' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Despite the huge technological achievements obtained with end-of-pipe environmental technologies, our society still faces serious environmental problems for which a stringent solution needs to be found. The increasing scarcity of clean water highlights the need for appropriate management of available water resources. This also applies for the management of reusable resources in wastewater flows, like minerals, energy and organic matter. In case of proper implementation of integrated environmental reuse techniques (INERT), sewage, agricultural and even industrial effluents can become important sources for drinking water, fertilisers, soil conditioners, and to some extend energy.

user: Describe how 'Dynamics of multi-vesicular and Late Endocytic Membranes: Invagination versus Tubulation' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Eukaryotic cells are composed of internal compartments. They communicate with each other to allow the exchange of molecules between them and therefore the survival of the cell. To ensure this function, small vesicles need to be formed, move, and fuse with their acceptor compartment.Concerning the endocytic pathway, it has been shown that multivesicular bodies and late endosomes can deform their membrane for tubulation or invagination. Several proteins (like Rab7, Hrs, ESCRT complexes, Alix and PI3 kinase) and lipids (like cholesterol, PI3P and LBPA) have been implicated in these processes but it is not known to what extent they interact to regulate them. This will be a first point I intend to study during this training.A second point I want to address is t he duality of functions for proteins involved in both invagination and tubulation of late endosomal membranes, as literature suggest about the small GTPase Rab7 or Alix, an endophilin partner (the latter is known to be implicated in tubulation of endosomal membranes) involved in the regulation of invagination process of endosomal membrane driven by lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA).A better characterization of this duality of functions will allow a better understanding of the mechanisms playing a role in the dynamics of multivesicular and endosomal membranes and how proteins and lipids involved in these processes can interact to regulate them.
