user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Touchless fingerprinting scanner' (Digitus) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The use of fingerprints for personal identification dates back to the ninetieth century, while its digital integration into every day devices is relatively new. Almost 350 million fingerprint sensors will be shipped next year only for consumer electronics applications, for a market worth around 10 B€ globally.With the world progressively going digital, digital security is the main concern and our daily experience highlights two main issues with respect to fingerprint sensors. Reliability of the fingerprint sensor is a major issue, as capacitive fingerprint sensors can be easily spoofed. Form factor is another one: fingerprint sensors take a vital space of the display, challenging the ongoing trend of borderless consumer electronics. That is why the electronics industry is searching for a new technology to create a 3D image of the fingerprints, which is more secure, energy efficient and seamlessly integrated in the device. At Piemacs, we have developed a novel technology to realise a fingerprint sensor based on ultrasounds that can scan a fingerprint through a surface, having high accuracy yet at prototypal stage, and also discriminating live from dead fingers. This provides utmost reliability and allows the sensor to be embedded underneath the display or the user interface of any device. The DigitUs ultrasonic sensor is based on a piezoelectric thin film proposed within the FET-OPEN project BioWings, whose main goal is to realise a vibrating membrane that emits ultrasound waves into a liquid flowing through a channel. Piemacs’ solution is based on PZT, a piezoelectric material which is at least 10 times stronger than the materials currently used for integrated ultrasound scanners and which can be readily integrated into MEMS, paving the way to the adoption of the soluti

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Proof-theoretic Analysis of Modal Logics' (PAnaMoL), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The PAnaMoL project aims at systematising proof theory for modallogics.  We intend to provide a unified perspective on sequent-stylecalculi and a deeper understanding of the general connections betweenaxiom systems and sequent-style calculi for such logics.  In detailthe research objectives are- The systematic development of suitable syntactic characterisationsof classes of modal axioms corresponding to natural formats of rulesin different sequent-style frameworks (e.g. sequent, hypersequent,nested sequent or display calculi) including algorithmic translationsfrom axioms to rules and back.- A systematic comparison of the different sequent-style frameworksaccording to their expressive strength.- The exploitation of these results in the investigation of:classification results stating necessary and sufficientproof-theoretic strength for important examples of logics such as GLand S5; uniform decidability and complexity results for large classesof logics; general consistency proofs.The research conducted in the project will be of relevance toresearchers in all fields where modal logics are used to model complexphenomena and provide easy-to-use results and methods for theproof-theoretic investigation and implementation of newly developedmodal logics.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Three-dimensional kinematic motion analysis by video-image tracking techniques'.

assistant: **Concept**

Three-dimensional computerised video analysis is becoming increasingly important in the clinical assessment of disorders of movement, especially gait. Unfortunately, the accuracy of these systems is limited by the accuracy of placement, and relative motion of, skin markers over bony landmarks. Recent developments in image-recognition now allow the outlines of moving objects to be tracked automatically. The proposed project would apply and adapt these techniques to clinical motion analysis, to provide marker-less tracking. This would not only be more convenient for the operator, but has the potential to improve accuracy and reliability. A combination of deformable models, B-spline curve representation and control theory will be used to track the three-dimensional motion of the lower-limb segments of a walking subject from two synchronous video-images. Results will be compared with those obtained from conventional motion analysis using markers.

user: Explain how 'Innovations in Neural Conceptual Representation: Exploring Aspects of Semantics' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Semantic representation –the knowledge that we have of the world– is an essential component of our mind whose nature can be inferred from similarity measures, which we use every day to compare entities on the basis of their meaning. Many research efforts have been made to understand our knowledge, proposing that it could be based upon data deriving from our sensorimotor experience or from any sort of regularity in spoken and/or written language. Recently, models combining these two data sources obtained semantic representations that are more informative and similar to human ones. However, 1) what information is used to represent meaning and 2) the way our brains organize semantic representations still remain hot topics of debate in the field.The project aims to address these queries, by investigating, for the first time, the relation between semantic representations at three different levels: behaviour, models and brain activity. We will derive similarity measures and combined similarity models using different data sources (text corpora, semantic feature norms, ratings studies). Next, in an fMRI study, adult English speakers will perform implicit (lexical decision) and explicit (categorization) tasks. We will use (1) a state-of-the-art technique (Representational Similarity Analysis) that has heralded a new research era in the study of semantics since it allows one-to-one mappings between patterns of brain-activity measurement, behavioural and computational models, and (2) dimensionality-reduction approaches. Results will provide new knowledge on the nature of semantic structure: they will allow a better characterization of different similarity measures, adjudicating between the different similarity models and behavioural data as well as identifying differences between

user: Explain how 'Control of structure specific endonucleases and implications in the biology of cancer' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Structure-specific endonucleases are key players in the maintenance of genome integrity. They act as specialized surgical tools for the processing of secondary DNA structures generated during important DNA repair and recombination events. However, cleaving DNA opens windows of opportunity for the occurrence of potentially dangerous chromosome rearrangements at the origin of cancer.The action of structure-specific endonucleases must therefore be tightly coordinated with downstream events that restore the full integrity of the chromosome. Additional challenge for the cell stems from the fact that for many of these nucleases the minimal structural requirement for cleaving DNA is a junction between double-strand and single-strand DNA.Therefore, in addition to controlling these enzymes in the context of their physiological reaction, the cell must ensure that they do not act randomly on structures generated during other DNA transactions associated with DNA unwinding. Despite their fundamental nature, the mechanisms that control structure-specific endonucleases remain poorly understood.This research project proposes to tackle this fundamental question by focusing on a conserved class of eukaryote heteromeric structure-specific endonucleases, each involved in sever al DNA repair and recombination pathways. A detailed analysis of the regulation of these endonucleases will be carried out throughout the cell-cycle and in response to genotoxic stresses in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe; a proven model system for the analysis and understanding of evolutionary conserved processes involved in genome maintenance in higher eukaryotes.The remarkable investigational potential of S. pombe will allow to combine genetic and cellular analysis with proteomic and biochemical studie

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Synthetic saccarides to study the immunological properties of type iii group b streptococcus oligosaccharides' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

The aim of this project is prepare synthetically the repeating oligosaccharide unit of type III Group B Streptococcus and derivatives thereof. The compounds will be used for structural (NMR spectroscopy) and immunological studies. The research should establish in detail the conformational control of the sialic acid residue on type III group B Streptococcus polysaccharide. Furthermore, the role of sialic acid on the immunological reaction will be further clarified. An ELISA assay to test ante natal sera for the presence of anti-streptococcus B type specific polysaccharide antibodies will be developed. The research may also lead to the development a novel and rational strategy for the design of synthetic carbohydrate-based vaccines.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'MOLECULAR METHODOLOGY FOR DETECTION OF FRAUDULENTLY COPIED PLANTS IN VEGETATIVELY PROPAGATED CROPS: APPLICATON TO GERANIUM (PELARGONIUM) AS A MODEL PLANT' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Molecular biology methods have promising applications in cultivar identification. Because frauds on varietal identity has important consequences on the ornamentals' market, this application is of a great interest for the European growers. We have chosen the Pelargonium (also called Geranium) as a model plant in MAP project and we expect that our approach will benefit all plant species encountering similar problems of fraud as well fresh plants as food raw materials. MAP is a prec.ompetitive Research and Development project which aims to study the feasibility of molecular method for two applications: 1- Methodology for detection of illegal vegetative multiplication of crops. National and European Plant Breeders Rights exist to fight this kind of fraud. However, due to the complexity of defending breeders' claims with official test of distinction, they are rarely used. MAP project will study the feasibility of varietal identification using molecular methods. Ultimately, this technique should represent a rapid and cheap tool for controlling varieties in propagation greenhouses and in retail outlets. It should be used by breeders to: - varietal certification of production under contract of license - defending breeders' claim in case of litigation.2 - Complementar;y tool for Plant Protection Rights (DUS test).Each commercial cultivar has to satisfv the so-called DUS test (Distinction, Uniformity and Stability) before being properly registered. MAP project will study the pertinence of molecular methods to the work of Plant Protection procedure. The molecular method could help to pre-screen the control varieties for distinction test.This kind of technique could also be an efficient and complementary tool to evidence cases of essentially derived varieties.This work will be perf

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Early Upper Palaeolithic mobility and technological decision-making under changing environmental constraints: case studies from Belgium and Romania' (PALMOBI) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

The PALMOBI project investigates Early Upper Palaeolithic (EUP) hunter-gatherer interactions with their environment at micro- and macro-regional scales under variable ecological conditions through the integrative use of cutting-edge interdisciplinary methodologies and their application to the archaeological record of the Aurignacian and the Gravettian across two contrasting regions (temperate Belgium & continental Romania). A comparison of these two regions by applying state-of-the-art stone tool technology and raw material economy analyses, geochemical sourcing and GIS geospatial techniques in tandem with anthropological methods and theories derived from the human behavioural ecology and social agency has never previously been attempted. While continental European Palaeolithic research is mainly concerned with origins, technological lineages, and culture history, the project, by drawing on the training provided in Cambridge, will contribute to developing an innovative framework to assess EUP hunter-gatherer mobility strategies and technological decision-making, hence adaptability, in the face of variable palaeoenvironmental constraints. Besides helping understand the mechanisms underlying variability in Aurignacian and Gravettian techno-economic systems, the methodological advances resulting from this project concern the resilience of technological behaviour in the face of climate change and the role of mobility in promoting social change, and will be applicable to any period and context in the prehistory of Europe and further afield.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Greener, more sustainable platforms for high-value recombinant protein production' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

The greenerRPP project aims to markedly enhance the EUs capacity for the production of secreted high-quality recombinant proteins, especially industrial enzymes and therapeutic proteins (biotherapeutics). The combined markets are in excess of $330 billion p.a., and the products are of massive significance for healthcare and a sustainable bio-based economy. greenerRPP will address urgent problems in these industries, such as difficult-to-express proteins and the rapidly-emerging issue of 'sustainability' in the European biotechnology industry. It will deliver improvements in yield and process design that increase the industry's effectiveness while simultaneously reducing high current levels of waste. It will deliver industrial enzymes that reduce energy and raw material costs in countless industrial and domestic settings. To achieve this, we will develop powerful new microbial and mammalian cell platforms that produce recombinant proteins in unusually high quantities and in unparalleled quality, and bring to market a suite of super-producing platforms. A comprehensive training programme will equip greenerRPP ESRs with the interdisciplinary and intersectoral skills required to be future leaders in these industries, while emphasising sustainability and gender-diversity dimension principles at every level. Finally, the programme addresses the stark global inequality in this biotechnology sector: recombinant protein production is largely carried out in (or outsourced by) high-income countries, placing low/middle income countries at a massive disadvantage. greenerRPP includes a series of South East Asian Institutions as Associated Partners, to develop a global network with a knowledge exchange-secondment programme that boosts these countries' own manufacturing programmes. gre

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'The Role of Lymphatic Vessels in Dendritic Cell Homing and Maturation' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Dendritic cell (DC) activation and homing from the periphery to lymph nodes is a critical first event in the immune response. It involves upregulation of the chemokine receptor CCR7 and chemoinvasion towards lymphatic vessels. Despite its critical importance in adaptive immunity, the mechanisms of DC migration towards and entry into lymphatics are still poorly understood; this severely limits new therapeutic strategies for immunomodulation and even strategies for treating lymphedema, which is exacerbated by poor immune functioning. We propose a battery of physiological, cell-biological, molecular, and computational studies to determine both the mechanisms of DC homing to lymphatic vessels and how DCs modulate lymphatic function. We approach this from the perspectives of both the DC and the lymphatic vessel. Regarding the DC, we will examine computationally and experimentally how draining flows toward the lymphatic alter their migration tactics and test our hypothesis that DCs possess a biomolecular flow-detector network (which we refer to as autologous chemotaxis) and are thus able to sense the direction of the subtle flow of fluid toward the lymphatics. Regarding the lymphatic vessel, we will elucidate how biochemical and biophysical inflammatory signals regulate their drainage function, alter cell-cell adhesions and overall permeability, and alter adhesion receptors to facilitate DC homing and entry. Finally, we will examine DC migration in mice with dysfunctional lymphatics and explore strategies to improve immune response. These will be carried out in 4 main projects, and will complement our recent work in lymphatic functional biology as well as our more therapeutic investigations in DC targeting and activation (Reddy et al., Nature Biotechnol., 2007).

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Understanding the role of impact cratering in Earth's evolution through state-of-the-art geochronology' (2014-2020) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The role of impact cratering in the evolution of Earth’s geosphere and biosphere is greatly underappreciated in the field of modern geoscience. Although years of research on terrestrial impact craters have contributed greatly to our knowledge of impact cratering processes and products, the available geochronological data represents a major and fundamental gap in our knowledge. Of the ca. 190 confirmed impact craters on Earth only ca. 10 % are considered to be accurately and precisely dated. Consequently, the vast majority of terrestrial craters cannot be correlated with each other or with other geological events such as mass extinctions. Here we propose to take timely advantage of recent advances both in our understanding of how the mineral zircon (ZrSiO4) can record the age of an impact event and in the analytical techniques used to determine such U-Pb ages to significantly and efficiently grow our database of accurately and precisely dated terrestrial impact craters. Specifically, this project will focus on craters whose precise formation age may have broad implications for Earth’s history. Among others, these include the Siljan impact crater, Sweden, which has been proposed as a contributing factor to the late Devonian mass extinction event, one of the largest mass extinctions in the Phanerozoic, and the Suavjärvi impact crater, northwest Russia. The latter has a very poorly constrained age of between 2.7 and 2.2 Ga but is likely to be the oldest impact crater on Earth with confirmation of an impact age in this study. This innovative action will couple recent advances in microstructural characterisation of shocked zircon (EBSD analysis and Raman mapping) with cutting-edge U-Pb analytical techniques not previously applied to shocked grains (including high resolution,
