user: Explain how 'Coordinating European Research on Molecular Communications' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

In recent years, several research groups have been created in the emerging research area of molecular communications. This is seen as a fundamental enabler for nano-scale networked devices. The heterogeneity of the biological environments that can host nano-scale communications has produced different proposals (e.g. neuronal networks, molecular diffusion, flow-based carrier mobility) analyzed by means of different research approaches and tools (different analytical models, simulators, lab experiments). For this reason, the need of integrating research activities at an EU level has emerged. The main objective of the CIRCLE is to integrate islands of heterogeneous research activities in a common research framework. The nature of the proposal is therefore strategic for the EU research objectives, highly interdisciplinary, inclusive of any input coming from any research activities that can contribute to identifying a research roadmap for the future years and feasible future exploitation plans.In the short term, CIRCLE will facilitate the creation of an EU wide Molecular Communications (CIRCLE) forum and provide a support infrastructure for coordination of research across Europe. In the medium term, it will foster knowledge sharing via the CIRCLE forum and a dedicated web portal. This will focus on the sharing of both research methodologies and simulation code repositories. It will establish expert working groups in different research topics within the Molecular Communications domain and develop strategic Roadmaps for both academic research and industry involvement. In the long term, CIRCLE will push the Roadmaps at a Member State and EU level to ensure Molecular Communications research converges rapidly towards feasible products of interest in the marketplace.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'DC Protection, Security, Control and Optimisation' (PROSECCO).

assistant: **Concept**

The PROSECCO project brings direct advancements to the maturity level of HVDC grids. Doing so, it aids in realizing Europe's climate goals for 2050. Meshed HVDC grids is a key technology to integrate offshore wind and to upgrade the European power system. As such, the future power system will be a hybrid AC/DC grid where the HVDC grid seamlessly integrates with AC systems. PROSECCO addresses innovation needs in grid protection near HVDC converters and congestion management for hybrid AC/DC grids. PROSECCO utilises Model Based System engineering to have a consistent approach that is vendor neutral from design. It will advance research on (HVDC) grid protection, focusing on harmonized specifications, improved testing, multi-vendor integration, enhancing grid stability and selective protection. In congestion management, the project develops power flow schedulers, power flow control hardware, and holistic cost-benefit analysis tools.PROSECCO will mature hybrid AC/DC grids through 4 different demonstrators across three EU member states, namely (1) unique test equipment for DC relays (2) DC protection relays being installed in actual DC grids (3) a full scale DC power flow controller and (4) software to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of protection and congestion management solutions. The project also contributes to international standardization and builds confidence in TSOs, educates power system engineers, and provides recommendations to ENTSO-E.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Scalable Energy Management Infrastructure for Aggregation of Households'.

assistant: **Concept**

The consortium behind the SEMIAH project aims to pursue a major technological, scientific and commercial breakthrough by developing a novel Information and Communication Technology (ICT) infrastructure for the implementation of Demand Response (DR) in households. This infrastructure enables the shifting of energy consumption from high energy-consuming loads to off-peak periods with high generation of electricity from Renewable Energy Sources (RES). The project's innovative approach is based on the development of an open ICT framework that will promote an environment for the deployment and innovation of smart grid services in households. A centralised system for DR service provisioning based on aggregation, forecasting and scheduling of electricity consumption will be developed. Furthermore, the project delivers a DR solution for control of electrical loads at a competitive price. The solution consists of a number of smart plugs that can be controlled over a home area network through a gateway connected to a wide area network. The consortium will integrate security and privacy functions to ensure that the system cannot be compromised. Finally, the consortium will develop new business models for electricity players and residential customers to quantify costs and benefits for players in the value chain. SEMIAH will provide benefits to residential customers, energy utilities and the society in general, through lower electricity bills, improved integration of RES and higher stability of the electricity grid. Hereby, the project will enable savings in CO2 emissions and fuel costs and reduce investments in electricity network expansions and electricity peak generation plants.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'European Startup Nations Alliance' (ESNA).

assistant: **Concept**

The time is now to bring Europe to the forefront of the global startup ecosystem, in order to boost societal health and wealth and increase economic growth, especially in this period of recovery following the COVID-19 global pandemic. The world will not be the same again, and Europe has a fantastic opportunity to become a global leader in the world of tomorrow if it manages to convert its potential as a continent of innovators, pioneers, and entrepreneurs into a competitive, well organized and coordinated ecosystem of startups. For that, Europe must establish the best framework conditions that can help the most promising and strategic startups stay and flourish in Europe and grow to compete globally.The signature of the EU “Startup Nations Standard” declaration in March 2021, as a formal commitment of 27 European countries to enhance these framework conditions through the adoption of best practices, and now the creation of the Europe Startup Nations Alliance (ESNA) as a new Startup Nations’ hub to coordinate, support and monitor national progresses towards this process, are the two key elements of this European policy. The present proposal is focused on establishment of ESNA with the mission to accelerate the growth of European entrepreneurship by improving national policy frameworks of the ESNA Member countries on the common standards agreed upon in the Startup Nations Standard Declaration, and to continuously identify and develop best practices into deployable policies based on analysis of data gathered from members on a digital platform, providing up to date key information of the

user: Describe how 'INDIVIDUAL HETEROGENEITY AND THE EVOLUTION OF PHENOTYPIC VARIABILITY' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

This project aims to extend our understanding of the maintenance and evolution of phenotypic variability, in particular variability in life history parameters. Among individual contributions to population dynamics will be assessed, by investigating variability in age-specific mortality and reproduction. Experiments on bacteria will be used to provide high-quality individual level data that will be analyzed using mathematical models and simulations. The main objective is to explain observed, and to predict future, ecological and evolutionary dynamics, variability and equilibrium in phenotypic distributions. The successful completion of our aims will add to the development and implementation of a new framework for the study of dynamics in variability and life history evolution in age-structured populations. This project is in biodemography and at the interface of demography, population biology, evolution, ecology and microbiology.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Structural and functional studies on the directed evolution of a/b -barrel proteins to create new enzymatic activities'.

assistant: **Concept**

Research objectives and content The objective of my research project is the directed evolution of an alpha/beta-barrel protein to create a new catalytic activity on the existing scaffold. The aim then is to characterise both the intermediate and the final proteins identified during the directed evolution process using both functional and structural probes. This will give a unique insight at a molecular level into the way a protein evolves in response to a selective pressure, and into how the changes in function correlate with changes in structure. The project will involve creation and expression of libraries of the alpha/beta-barrel protein indoleglycerolphosphate synthase in appropriate strains of E. coli. Mutation of the cloned wild-type gene in both a targeted and random manner will be followed by selection for the ability to complement suitable auxotrophic strains of E. coli. Iteration of this process in combination with 'DNA shuffling' will be used to identify new variants with improved activity. Selected proteins isolated will be over-expressed, purified and used for crystallisation experiments. If crystals are obtained, I will undertake to solve the structures by x-ray crystallography; this should be greatly simplified by use of molecular replacement methods since the wild-type structure has been solved previously at high resolution. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) My project will be part of a research programme for a postgraduate degree from Cambridge University, and it will provide advanced scientific training for a career in molecular and structural biology. My project will be co-supervised by two members of the academic staff in the Biochemistry Department and I will benefit greatly from the environment since I will join two experien

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Multisensory processing in cortical networks underlying the formation of supramodal percepts'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The neocortex underlies higher cognitive functions in mammals and humans. Its computational function is essential for categorizing external objects into supramodal percepts. This natural categorization depends on multisensory integration to become largely independent of the modality through which relevant input is acquired. In contrast, this remarkable cognitive ability is poorly emulated by artificial systems. The anatomical cortical architecture shows extensive connectivity across its different sensory areas, departing from the classically assumed hierarchical processing scheme. Recent studies demonstrated that primary sensory cortical areas coding for distinct modalities are already interconnected, but the computational role of these heteromodal connections is unknown. My goal is to test whether heteromodal interactions in primary sensory cortical areas transmit inferences about the identity of behaviorally relevant objects perceived across multiple sensory channels. The working hypothesis is that these interactions modify the primary representation of unimodal sensory stimuli, resulting in supramodal perceptual invariance, even in ambiguous unimodal contexts. This study will be carried out in awake behaving rodents trained to discriminate between two multimodal objects, which require the two sensory modalities to be fully distinguished. State-of-the art techniques (two-photon calcium imaging and multisite electrode arrays) to record from large scale neural assemblies, will be combined with modern analysis of neural population dynamics and network simulations. Underlying mechanisms will be explored by optogenetic targeting of specific neuronal populations. My long-term aim is to quantitatively explain encoding and classification of multisensory cues across primary se

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Click Chemistry for Future Gene Therapies to Benefit Citizens, Researchers and Industry' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Gene therapy is expected to play a key role in next-generation medicine by correcting the underlying genetic causes of disease, thereby facilitating personalised medicine. Current gene therapy methods possess undesirable side effects, including insertional mutagenesis, toxicity, low efficiency and off-target cutting. Questions also remain regarding the optimal methods for delivering nucleases into cells and tissues. These limitations will be addressed through the original and innovative approach of the ClickGene network. ClickGene’s research objectives are to train 14 ESRs in the field of biomaterials development with specific focus on, i.) site-selective genetic engineering, ii.) liposomal nanoparticle drug delivery, and iii.) optogenetic diagnostic probes for epigenetic base detection. Most of our academic partners are key members of COST Action CM1201: Biomimetic Radical Chemistry and all have outstanding international reputations as scientific leaders in their field. This COST Action will play a vital role in both networking and training elements of ClickGene, and in combination with transferable skills training, intersectorial and cross-disciplinary secondment, and industry targeted workshops, the education of biomaterials chemists with expertise in click-chemistry and cutting edge application areas of gene therapy, nanotechnology and biological diagnostics will be achieved. The training provided will match the skills required by next-generation research leaders in biopharmaceutical, nanotechnology, biodiagnostic and other industries. Allied to academic strength in this network, ClickGene features highlycompetitive industry partners with expertise in commercialisation of nucleic acid click-chemistry (baseclick, ATDBio) and liposomal and lipidome technology (LipiNut

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Quantum spin Hall insulator with two dimensional crystals'.

assistant: **Concept**

Dissipationless electrical transport is a key paradigm to reduce energy consumption in our society. Recent advancements incondensed matter physics have revealed that there exist ballistic transport channels at the surface or the edge of topologicalinsulators. These states are preserved by time-reversal symmetry and robust against back scattering. Exploiting topologicalinsulators is therefore a major step for future nondissipative nanoelectronics.Nevertheless, such a topological phase of matter has been discovered in very few kinds of materials so far. Most of theexisting materials are difficult to fabricate, which limits scientific endeavor to explore their properties and also futureapplication. Recently, several theoretical studies have demonstrated that atomically thin graphene or other two dimensionalcrystals may become two dimensional topological insulators (quantum spin Hall insulators) by inducing large spin-orbitinteraction. These materials are rich of novel physics and attract growing attention in their own right. Moreover, they areeasy to prepare by mechanical exfoliation, which facilitates to apply them to real nanoelectronics devices.HELICOMBX is the first project which aims at establishing a basis for dissipationless electronics and spintronics withgraphene and transition metal dichalcogenides and unifying physics in topological phase, spintronics and two dimensionalcrystals. The project is divided into three parts. First we will induce large spin-orbit interaction in graphene by adatomsdeposition and heterostructures construction with transition metal dichalcogenides. Spin-orbit interaction of each system isthen measured by magnetotransport measurements. Second we will exploit these functionalized two dimensional crystals forspintronics devices. As the fina

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Tracking impacts of climate change in the Arctic marine ecosystems through cephalopod diversity and life histories' (ArCeph).

assistant: **Innovation**

Climate change is impacting global ecosystems, especially in the polar areas of the Earth. Countering climate change effects is stated as one of the key goals of both global development, in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and of regional development, e.g. EU strategy of managing the Arctic. Cephalopoda (Phylum Mollusca) are pivotal components in marine food webs and have life history and physiological characteristics that make them potential winners of climate change. This group, due to their ecology and biology features, such as high abundance coupled with low taxonomic diversity, high degree of opportunism, ecological adaptability,  single reproductive cycle and typically a short lifespan, cab ve used to assess and predict climate change-induced shifts of Arctic ecosystems. Thus, the main objective of the Action is to assess biodiversity, life histories and ecological role of cephalopods in the Arctic and their ontogenetic and temporary changes using both well-established and innovative methodologies, in the climate change context. The project addresses this matter via 3 scientific work packages that focus on the following research hypotheses: Hypothesis 1) diversity and distribution of current Arctic cephalopod populations shifts due to climate changes; Hypothesis 2) environmental conditions experienced during the life of individual cephalopods can be documented and used to assess the climate change impact on life histories, where comparing historical with new specimens will highlight climate change impact; and Hypothesis 3) the role of cephalopods in the Arctic food web is even more pivotal then we currently understand, and this would be tested with innovative food web modelling methods. The results achieved will increase the quality of ecological monit
