user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Things that Matter: Mobility and Agency of Everyday Objects in Late Medieval Italy' (ThiMa).

assistant: **Concept**

ThiMa challenges the assumption that action is a human prerogative by examining how everyday objects served as agents of transformation in late medieval societies. Investigating the boundary between material and human agency is particularly critical for the present, where new artificial intelligences call into question the very essence of being human. ThiMa reflects on these matters from another watershed moment in the redefinition of European material culture. Between the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, everyday goods diversified and there was a significant increase of objects in circulation. This period can thus serve as a crucial laboratory to explore the impact of ordinary things on people’s social behavior and emotional life. For the first time, ThiMa examines objects as agents that interacted with individuals, mediating social relationships and moving emotions, (ways of) thinking, and perceptions through their peculiar material language. To investigate these questions, this project employs a bold new comparative framework in the richly documented but diverse environments of Tuscany and Sicily. This critical move away from siloed approaches to material culture allows us to better understand how socio-economic, institutional, and legal contexts influenced the complex relationship between human and things. The project interrogates a broad range of textual and material sources, using quantitative and qualitative methods, cutting-edge digital tools and drawing on a ground-breaking theoretical framework on material agency. Thanks to this novel approach, ThiMa will profoundly advance our understanding of how humans perceive and interact with their material environment from the medieval past to the present day.

user: Explain how 'Graphene doping and texturing in efficient electrodes for organic solar cells' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Organic semiconductor solar cells are a promising route to scalable, economically viable, energy conversion technologies due to the potential for development of low-cost, flexible, large-area cells and modules.In order to achieve the goal of obtaining efficient bulk heterojunction solar cells (BHJ-SCs), graphene electrodes have been recently proposed as a promising candidate. Research is however at the very beginning, so that if graphene will manage to accomplish this task still has to be proved.In particular, many questions remains open like the degree of interaction of graphene with the polymeric layer, which could degrade the outstanding graphene electron conductivity, as well as the graphene/polymer electron affinity, which plays an important role in the overalls solar cell efficiency. Furthermore, up to now no analysis on light management improvements induced by structuring graphene as photonic crystal for light trapping in BHJ-SC has been reported.The GO-NEXTS project, will focus its attention on new kind of electrodes based on doped, textured (ie 3D) graphene electrodes, in order to increase the overall efficiency and performance of bulk heterojunction solar cells. To our knowledge, this represents the first proposal to enhance light trapping in a solar cell by structuring one or more graphene contact electrode(s) to act as photonic crystal(s).The project will leverage the combination of two different fabrication processes, and in particular the doping of the graphene, to obtain semi-transparent electrodes as well as the texturing of the electrodes.  This approach, which has never been proposed before, represents a high-risk, high-impact approach.  If successful, it should lead to improvements in solar cell efficiency by up to 14%. Furthermore, all the technologi

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'FMO1 Multifunctionality for improved Plant health' (MultiPly).

assistant: **Concept**

Flavin-containing monooxygenases (FMOs) are a highly conserved family of enzymes present in prokaryotes, fungi, animals, and plants. Among plant FMOs, the N-hydroxylating FMO1 is essential for pathogen resistance. FMO1 catalyses the biosynthetic reaction to synthesize N-hydroxy-pipecolic acid (N-Pip), the critical signalling molecule for Systemic Acquired Resistance (SAR) defense priming. Since the identification of FMO1 functionality in 2018, targeted analysis of the N-Pip pathway shows high potential for metabolic engineering to enhance disease resistance in dicotyledons. A fully analogous role for N-Pip SAR in monocotyledonous crops, however, is less clear. In fact, preliminary analysis by the Neilson Group (UCPH) suggests the FMO1 from barley (Hordeum vulgare) and sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) has diversified functionality compared to activity observed in the FMO1 from Arabidopsis. Unbiased analysis of potential FMO1 multifunctionality has not yet been addressed, and detailed analysis of FMO1 evolution throughout the plant kingdom is lacking.  The proposed project – ‘MultiPly: FMO1 Multifunctionality for improved Plant health’–will employ an interdisciplinary approach to investigate the evolution and functionality of the significant Plant FMO1s. Specifically, this project will combine bioinformatics (phylogeny reconstruction, protein modelling, and docking) with enzyme kinetic studies and in planta analysis to assess FMO1 multifunctionality throughout the plant kingdom. The in planta FMO1 characterization will primarily occur in barley to unravel the mode of SAR in these agriculturally important crops.  In addition, MultiPly is designed to utilize my background in protein biochemistry and bioinformatics.  I will also receive significant training within the new technical

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Forest Intelligence: robotic networks inspired by the Wood Wide Web' (I-Wood) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Plants are connected to each other by an underground network of fungi that provide them with nutrients, help share resources, and extend their perception abilities. This mycorrhizal network, known as the Wood Wide Web, plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy natural ecosystems, and in limiting the global warming. Thus, it must be preserved in order to mitigate the speeding up of the carbon cycle and its effects on climate change. Robotics and Artificial Intelligence (AI) can offer concrete solutions for a deeper analysis of natural processes at the basis of this global change and for developing sustainable technologies. Based on that, I-Wood proposes a new paradigm of virtual and physical robotic networks inspired by the belowground fungus-mediated inter-plant communication and by the associated collective behaviours. Specifically, I-Wood will study, extract and formalize the rules of plant-fungus interaction mechanisms to develop: a plant-inspired perceptron-like model; and a new generation of plant-inspired robots able to explore soil using their roots with growing, ageing, branching, and elongating abilities in response to their network-augmented perception and implementing plant-inspired collective behaviours. By imitating plants, these distributed intelligent systems will co-develop morphology and behaviour in a dynamic environment. Impact and feasibility of the proposed approach will be tested in a mixed social network, scale-down in a confined environment, where robots will interact with real plants to facilitate the development of mycorrhizal networks. Grounded on a strong multi-disciplinary approach, I-Wood will pave the way for new paradigms in robotics and embodied AI, based on solutions that overcome the current animal-based or brain-based model, novel a

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Debris EXtraction Tools for Extra-terrestrial Recycling' (DEXTER) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

In-Space Recycling and Reuse of Orbital Assets (ISRROA) is the most financially and ecologically sustainable solution to the problem of orbital debris. The DEXTER (Debris EXtraction Tools for Extraterrestrial Recycling) project solves two key obstacles – lack of adequate tooling for harvesting end of life spacecraft and processing debris, and lack of a propulsion system capable of both high thrust and propellant economy needed for long term Active Debris Removal (ADR).DEXTER will provide solutions for two viable use cases for recovering orbital material: turning recycled materials into structural elements and propellant.  We will (1) develop and validate in a laboratory environment robotic technology that allows for the harvesting, processing, and repurposing of orbital debris materials into new structural elements to build new infrastructures in space, and (2) explore processes for converting scrap aluminium to propellant and delivering via a prototype refuelling mechanism, and provide a ground-based demonstration of a prototype refuellable thruster suitable for operating future ADR missions without resupply from earth.Key DEXTER breakthroughs include (1) demonstrating the viability of laser cutting and welding in a vacuum, (2) developing a modular toolkit with novel capabilities including a multipurpose rotary tool, a non-destructive gripping mechanism and computer vision for semiautonomous operation (3) and demonstrating the viability of using orbital debris as propellant.Laboratory demonstrations will validate the developed technologies against two potential ISRROA use cases – spacecraft disassembly and reassembly in a different structural form and as propellant for a high-powered plasma thruster. We will demonstrate the viability of spacecraft harvesting and refuel

user: Explain how 'Investigating the Impact of Risk of Automation on Health Outcomes of Employees: Evidence from Germany' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

The proposed research project aims at contributing to the literature on work-related determinants of health, and innovates previousstudies by investigating the impact of risk of automation (proxied by a percentage of routine tasks in the occupation) on bothsubjective and objective measures of health of employees. By merging survey data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP)with expert data from BERUFENET and adopting the methodology proposed by Dengler et al. (2014), the project addresses thefollowing research questions: i) to which extend does risk of automation affect health outcomes of German employees; ii) what arepossible transmission mechanisms behind the health differences of German employees related to risk of automation; iii) is selectioninto occupations at a higher risk of automation determined by a health status of individuals.The project will have a meaningful impact on society. To begin with, the scientific community can benefit due to promoting gender specificmultidisciplinary research which adopts methodologies from social sciences (e.g. mediation analysis, structural equationmodeling) and implements them innovatively in the field of economics. In addition, the project shows how to use different types ofdata (e.g. surveys, expert databases) to properly address modern challenges and enrich evidence on established topics. Furthermore,the project serves as a “testing ground” for a novel methodology of measuring the risk of automation for a variety of occupations.From the economic and societal perspective, the project estimates the magnitude of the “social costs of digitalization” and providesguidance to policy-makers and companies to decrease negative spill-over effects of technological change on population health. Lastbut not least, the social impact

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Using AI Computer Vision 2.0 for Visual Inspection in the Industry'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Manufacturing and other companies still rely on humans for visual inspection checks despite the high error rates. This is because automated systems are too general and too expensive and conventional machine vision is too simple. Computer vision and AI can bring the next needed revolution in digitization. They allow machines to see and understand processes in their environment.  The AI computer vision platform MoonVision detects item type and amounts on a visual basis using proprietary algorithms and triggers events including the optimization of machines, payment processes or data generation. MoonVision works with a wide range of commonly available hardware and the deep learning algorithms only require a small amount of images and data to learn. MoonVision can be applied in a wide range of industries ranging from inspecting metal surfaces to tracking the types of containers in waste processing. Several renown companies are already using MoonVision including Miba, Audi, Sacher, etc. MoonVision has allowed us to enter the AI image recognition market that was valued at €1 billion in 2017. We could gain the part of the market that is dedicated to recognizing images for industrial applications.We follow an SaaS business model with different subscription levels depending on the vertical. Our customers are different companies in manufacturing, hospitality and anyone who needs visual inspection. The most important types of suppliers are hosting, computation and data suppliers.Our core team has three members. Our CEO and Founder Florian is a web developer and entrepreneur and holds an MS in Economics. The Executive Director and COO Kamil has worked in consulting since 2008 and holds a BA in business. Tatiana is our AI data engineer and holds a PhD in Optics and Musical Acoustics.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Surface Engineering for Thermal Water Separation' (SETWATER) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

We propose to alter the surface topography and morphology of titanium substrates for phase change heat transfer enhancements using the electrochemical techniques developed in an ERC consolidator grant. The alteration efforts will result in enhanced heat transfer efficiency. The modified titanium substrate will be used to fabricate a thermally enhanced heat exchange device, which will then be used to construct a novel thermal water separation system based on a multi-effect ‘hybrid’ distillation concept for fresh water recovery from seawater or industrial wastewater feed. This system is applicable for desalination and wastewater treatment. The goal of the project is to provide technology demonstrators for such a system, which is expected to have a disruptive high efficiency compared to existing systems.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'MIBIREM – Toolbox for Microbiome based Remediation' (MIBIREM) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Microbiomes have high potential to improve biobased processes. For example, in soil and groundwater they can degrade organic contaminants, a process called bioremediation. In Europe about 324,000 severely contaminated sites exist, which pose a risk to humans and the environment. Conventional remediation technologies to clean them are often too expensive and technically Microbiomes have a high potential to improve processes in the bio-based industry. Like the microbiome in the gut, that supports the body in the digestion of food, microbiomes in environmental compartments like soil and groundwater can produce enzymes that can degrade organic contaminants caused by human activities. In MIBIREM we will develop a TOOLBOX that helps to better develop applications for microbiomes. The TOOLBOX includes molecular methods for a better understand and monitoring, isolation and cultivation techniques as well as quality criteria for deposition of whole microbiomes and last, but not least methods that are applied to improve specific functions of microbiomes like microbiome evolution and enrichment cultures and microcosm tests. The TOOLBOX is developed for the environmental applications of microbiomes for ‘bioremediation’. For that purpose, three use-cases were selected. In these three use-cases the degradation of organic contaminants in soil and groundwater by active microbiomes is investigated and developed. The three groups of contaminants are cyanides, hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) and petroleum hydrocarbons (PHC). The project starts with sampling of contaminated sites to isolate microbiomes active in degradation and to gain data for the development of a prediction tool that helps guide bioremediation. Isolated microbiomes and degrading strains will be deposited and will also be impr

user: Draft an impact statement for 'External costs of energy conversion - improvement of the externe methodology and assessment of energy-related transport externalities', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The supply and use of energy imposes risks and causes damage to a wide range of receptors, including human health, natural ecosystems (flora and fauna) and the built environment. Such damages are to a large extent external costs, as they are not reflected in the market price of energy. The existence of external effects in the energy and transport sectors may cause welfare losses and a non-optimal allocation of resources. The internalisation of environmental externalities, which is an important element of EU environmental policy strategies, requires the identification, quantification and monetisation of the external effects. For the electricity generation sector a methodology for externality quantification was developed within previous phases of the ExternE project. The main feature of this methodology is the modelling of impact pathways. Within the ExternE Transport I Project the ExternE methodology was extended to energy-related impacts of the transport sector, accounting for the considerable differences between the transport sector and the energy sector. However, the uncertainities in the estimation of external costs of energy conversion from both stationary plants and transport are large; furthermore some issues are not sufficiently solved yet and new knowledge has qrisen that has to be integrated into overall framework. So, further methodological improvements is necessary. The work programme of the present proposal is grouped into two sections: ExternE Core and ExternE Transport. In ExternE Core issues of general interest for the impact assessment of both, stationary and mobile energy conversion techniques will be addressed, including global warming impacts, ozone impacts, exposure-response models, monetary valuation, sustainability indicators and validation.
