user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Converging and conflicting ethical values in the internal/external security continuum in Europe' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Security and insecurity are social, cultural, political concepts. Nowhere is this more evident than in the challenges produced by the evolving continuum between internal and external security challenges. The interdisciplinary project INEX is designed around two research axes: thematic and geopolitical. On the thematic axis it will study four fields of knowledge of high relevance to the question of the ethics and the value-laden tensions arising along the continuum between internal and external security in Europe: (1) the ethical consequences of the proliferation of security technologies, (2) the legal dilemmas that arise from transnational security arrangements, (3) the ethical and value questions that stem from the shifting role of security professionals and (4) the consequences of the changing role of foreign security policy in an era when the distinction between the external and internal borders grows less distinct On the geopolitical axis it will study and produce recommendations relative to two geographical theatres of high relevance for ethical issues of internal/external security: the Eastern European ‘neighbourhood’ including Belarus, Ukraine, Moldova and the Mediterranean ‘neighbourhood’ including Morocco, Algeria and Egypt. The project will link directly with representatives of the security technology industry as well as security provision services that implement concretely to the border security arrangements. The state-of-the-art research carried out by the project will result in a variety of different outputs aimed primarily at relevant policy-makers, researchers and educators. It will present analyses of current security challenges with particular attention to the human side of the security challenge, and on this basis propose remedial to the new challenges

user: Describe how 'Micro- and Macro-Level Determinants of Job Insecurity Perceptions: Individual, Organizational and Social Consequences. Multilevel Analysis and Comparisons among Countries' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

This project aims to increase the understanding of the nature of job insecurity by examining its causes and consequences through a multilevel perspective, considering factors at the individual, organizational and country levels. We intend to provide theoretical models identifying antecedents of job insecurity and potential effects on life quality: the practical goal is to develop instruments for suitable organizational and social policies that could address in a comprehensive way the problem of job insecurity now and in the future. We propose to test micro- and macro-level predictors and consequences of job insecurity combining 3 different data sources: ESS, EUROSTAT, PSYCONES. Perceived threat of job loss has became one of the most prominent job stressors and several studies have shown its detrimental effects on employee’s well-being, health, and job attitudes. However, research in work psychology has focused on the role of individual-level variables, thus neglecting the possibility that job insecurity might also be a contextual stressor. Individual employees may feel their situation as threatened even if there is no apparent objective threat. This fundamental distinction between subjective and objective job insecurity is not acknowledged by economists. Their studies on macro-aggregate data consider only temporary employment and do not reveal how individuals experience job insecurity. The present proposal aims to integrate economic and psychology perspectives examining predictors and outcomes also related to labour market’s macro-economic situation, in addition to individual characteristics and organizational conditions. Taking a cross-cultural perspective we can assess the generalizability of job insecurity in various countries and especially examine how higher-level

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'ImPROVED ZINC-COMPOSITE COATINGS' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

Chromated zinc coatings are widely used to provide corrosion resistance to construction parts in the building, automotive, offshore and chemical industry. The corrosion resistance, partly achieved by the chromate post-treatment, is the most important property; in some cases however also (self) lubricating properties (fasteners) are important. The objective of this project is to develop and demonstrate a novel electroplating process and mechanical plating process which gives good corrosion resistance, combined with self-lubricating properties using a composite coating based on a metal (matrix) of zinc (alloy) and a non toxic second phase of organic (fluoro-organic and/or a polyamid (silicate) phase which does not contain hexavalent chromium.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Engineering of vesicular stomatitis virus-g protein (vsv-g) to retarget recombinant infectious viral particles' under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Gene therapy has the potential to become a future medical choice for treatment of many diseases, ranging from monogenetic disorders to cancers and autoimmunity. However, before gene therapy will be clinically successful and widely available, there are numerous obstacles to overcome and many further improvements to be made. One of the most urgent objectives is to generate high levels of transgene products at the site of interest, hence intensifying the local effect whilst reducing unwanted reactions associated with inappropriate distribution of the recombinant protein. A viable approach issuing a targeted infection strategy where viral vectors are supplied in vivo. To date, Env of Moloney murine leukemia virus (MoMLV) has been engineered to express modified specificities, although these alterations have been associated with a lack of efficient infection levels. Interestingly, VSV-G, a commonly used pseudo typing protein, which exceeds MoMLV Env in both stability and fusogenicity, has been overlooked in the attempts to obtain targeted vectors. The binding and fusion domains of VSV-G remain unidentified, which may be a reason for this oversight. We are thus interested in characterizing both these regions of VSV-G. Ultimately, we are aiming at modifying the protein to acquire a different retroviral vector specificity. If successful, these findings may significantly complement today's attempts to realize the prophecy of gene therapy. Targeted gene delivery interests me immensely, hence I contacted Dr Piechaczyk regarding continuing my post-doctoral training with his group, as they possess extensive expertise in the area. The opportunity to carry out research in this field, at this level, did not appear very probable if I had returned to Sweden. I have very much enjoyed the d

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Molecular dynamics simulation of the membrane binding and disruption mechanisms of antimicrobial peptides' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a promising new class of antibiotics, the mechanism of which usually involves binding to membranes with subsequent disruption. The disruption process is, however, still poorly understood, mostly because it seems to be mediated by states - pore formation or in-depth AMP insertion - that are unordered and very short-lived. My PhD work focused on using and developing biophysical methodologies to study the conditions at which the AMP-mediated disruption is triggered. Models bridging these results with in vivo observations were developed, establishing important relationships between AMP concentration and activity. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations allow the visualization of molecular level interactions with spatial and time resolution unsurpassed by experimental techniques, having already provided important clues on AMP-mediated membrane pore formation. In this project the interactions of AMPs with phospholipid bilayers and vesicles will be followed by MD simulations. A comparative study will be performed on a family of peptides derived from two naturally occurring AMPs (cecropin and melittin; base template XKLFKKILKXL-NH2) to gather insight on the different activities and toxicities of each of the peptides, and, from there, better understand the molecular characteristics responsible for those features. Work will also focus on the optimization and application of Coarse Grained (CG) simulation models, which allow significant reductions of processing time without major loss of detail. The interaction models that arise from MD simulations will be experimentally validated, making use of the researcher's background complemented by the host group's strong network of collaborating laboratories. The shift to computer simulation techniques will def

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Network of European – Asian Rail Research capacities' (NEAR2), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The rapid development of Asian economies, particularly China, India and Russia has dramatically increased the trade volumes between Europe and Asia, with the largest trading partners of Europe actually being located in Asia. Nowadays, the most important trade loads are being transported between the two continents by sea. Railway transport, using the existing and new land routes for the Trans-Eurasian land bridge presents a viable alternative to the maritime routes, which is gaining significant momentum. Due to the origins and current nature of this rail land bridge, numerous issues need to be resolved to bring the system to a modern state of infrastructure, services and operations. Furthermore, to build the capacity to fully exploit the systems potential adaptation of new technologies, interoperability solutions and optimized operations should be considered. To support this objective, NEAR2 proposed the development of a Rail Research Network, drawing knowledge and expertise form leading institutions and researchers from both continents.The project capitalizes upon the existing structure and leverages the achievements of the existing European Rail Research Network and builds upon the reservoir of expertise of the proposed project partners gleaned from the most relevant past and on going research projects and other activities. The Network aims to become the resource arm of the relevant industry.NEAR2 will establish a unique, international, interdisciplinary research capacity with the goal of contributing in advancing a major sector of the regions’ economy, as well as broaden the knowledge basis of the railway research and practice.

user: Explain how 'Spatio-temporal dynamics of semiconductor laser arrays' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

We propose to study theoretically and experimentally the dynamical behaviour of a single element VCSEL coupled to an external coherent field, and the coupling among the different elements of a linear array. These studies will improve our knowledge about the non-linear response of semiconductor materials in their interaction with an electromagnetic field. On the other hand, we expect that the coupling with an external injected field will allow us to prove that their dynamical behaviour can be described as one corresponding to an excitable media. This would be the same way as it was described for chemical reactions and liquid crystals. If we apply our knowledge on those media we will be able to generate high intensity pulses and propagate them undisturbed through the medium and we will be able to show how counter-propagating pulses may annihilate each other or 'penetrate' through the medium depending on control parameter values.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Nano-Photonics Materials and Technologies for Multicolor High-Power Sources' (NATAL).

assistant: **Concept**

NATAL aims to develop a new core technology of powerful and compact laser sources for the visible and ultraviolet spectral ranges. Such devices are needed for a variety of applications including nano-materials processing, medicine, RGB displays, life sciences, as well as UV lithography and surface chemistry. The lasers envisaged by NATAL represent a radical departure from the existing technologies. Nanophotonic materials and science are the key themes running throughout the proposed programme. The main areas addressed by NATAL include (i) development of innovative nano-structured gain devices (ii) development of advanced micro-optical elements to enable the functionality and control of  lasers.  Central focus of this programme is the concept of the Optically-Pumped Vertical External Cavity Surface-Emitting Semiconductor Laser (OP-VECSEL). These sources retain the power-scaling, beam quality and intracavity control capability of solid-state lasers, while offer the wavelength versatility, broadband pump absorption and compact gain region supplied by semiconductor technology. NATAL will use the innovative thermally-conductive optical windows bonded directly to the surface of the OP-VECSEL chip. This approach allows to facilitate wavelength extension and power scaling, microchip operation and novel schemes for optical mode control, in addition to integrated device formats with a wide range of functionality. Specific wavelength targets include direct operation in the red (630-670 nm) and frequency-doubled OP-VECSELs operating at 315-335 nm (UV), 470 nm (blue), 520 nm (green), and 610 nm (red). These wavelengths cover important absorption bands in a host of materials significant to nanotechnology (quantum dot and conventional fluorphores, light-emitting polymers, photoresists

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'A SYnaptically connected brain-silicon Neural Closed-loop Hybrid system' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The brain, with its remarkable computational properties, provides animals with capabilities of physical autonomy, interaction and adaptation that are unmatched by any artificial system.  The brain is a complex network that has evolved to optimize processing of real-world inputs by relying on event-based signaling and self-reorganizing connectivity. Spikes (the events) are transmitted  between neurons through synapses which undergo continuous ‘birth’-‘death’ and adjustment, reconfiguring brain circuits and adapting processing to ever changing inputs.The scientific and technological objective of the project is to create a hybrid system where a neural network in the brain of a living animal (BNN) and a silicon neural network of spiking neurons on a chip (SNN) are interconnected by neuromorphic synapses, thus enabling co-evolution of connectivity and co-processing of information of the two networks
