user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Towards the next generation of high performance li-ion battery cells' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

The Li-ion battery (LIB) market is now entering a period where energy density improvements and cost reductions are levelling off for the current generation 3a. To continue with this trend while keeping pace with the increasing industry demands for cost reduction, user-friendliness of electric vehicles and safety, breakthrough innovations at material level and cell design are needed. Within this context, NEXTCELL overarching goal is to provide a new 3b LIB cell generation for both high capacity and high voltage applications developing and validating a ground-breaking gellified cell concept. The project workplan revolves around a three dimension-based methodology: (i) Prototyping the gellified cell concept up to TRL6 (20Ah), (ii) Modelling the gellified cell concept, and (iii) Evaluation of technical, safety, sustainability, and costs improvements. NEXTCELL’s approach will not only provide Europe with cutting edge 3b cells but will also tackle three key parameters hindering a greater market penetration of LIBs technology: (i) Costs: optimising its manufacturing processes, reducing capital and operating costs of future Giga-factories by avoiding evaporation of solvents and the electrolyte-filling step. (ii) Safety: Producing intrinsically safe cells, avoiding the presence of low boiling point components in cell components. (iii)  Sustainability: Reducing energy consumption by 50% against SoA and avoiding the use of toxic organic solvents (NMP). The project is led by the electric vehicle industry, from the project coordination by FEV (leading vehicle and powertrain international service provider) to key industry manufacturers along the value chain, such as SOLVAY (polymer, binders, and separators), ABEE (cathode production), VARTA (LIB manufacturer) or CRF (research centre

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Bicuspid Related Aortopathy, a Vibrant Exploration' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Bicuspid aortic valve, a heart valve with only two leaflets instead of three, is the most common congenital heart defect with an estimated prevalence of about 1-2%. The heart defect often remains asymptomatic but in at least 10% of the bicuspid aortic valve patients, an ascending aortic aneurysm develops as well. If not detected in a timely fashion, this can lead to an aortic aneurysm dissection with a high mortality. In view of the prevalent nature of this heart defect, this implies an important health care problem. Historically, it was always hypothesized that abnormal blood flow across the bicuspid aortic valve led to aneurysm formation. However in recent years, the importance of a genetic contribution has been suggested based on the high heritability and it is currently believed that the same genetic factors predispose to the developmental valve defect and the aortic aneurysm formation. The inheritance pattern is most consistent with an autosomal dominant disorder with variable penetrance and expressivity. Until now, the latter have significantly hampered the causal gene identification but the era of next generation sequencing is now offering unprecedented opportunities for a major breakthrough in this area.Through detailed signalling pathway analysis, miRNA profiling and next generation sequencing, this project will contribute significantly to resolving the genetic causes of bicuspid related aortopathy, provide critical knowledge on the pathogenesis of aortic aneurysmal disease and deliver a mouse model for future therapeutical trials.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Cortical Mechanisms of Exploratory Learning' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

In daily life, the trade-off between exploration of alternative opportunities and exploitation of the benefits of the choice at hand is encountered often. While the ability of mammals to switch to explorative courses of action has been extensively studied in machine learning and ethology fields, much less attention in neuroscience has been given to understanding how the brain mediates such decisions in humans. To date, no mechanism has been put forward. The proposed project seeks to understand how communication among neural regions gives rise to switches to explorative behavior, or decisions to take alternative choices about which the reward probabilities are uncertain, during a learning task. The project will use transcranial direct current stimulation to test specific hypotheses about the interactions among cortical regions and their effects on exploratory behavior. Behavior will be modeled using a Bayesian learning algorithm and neural activity before and after stimulation will be measured using functional magnetic resonance imaging. The mechanistic relationships among neural regions and behavior will be examined using dynamic causal modeling , a technique that was developed at the host institution. The results of the project will sketch out a mechanistic model of explorative decision making at the neural systems level. Understanding how brain regions causally interact during exploration will narrow a critical gap in basic neuroscientific knowledge of exploration and exploit. Our approach may also have direct applications to clinical neurology. The temporary inhibition of frontal regions could serve to simulate neuropathological insults resulting in deficits in task switching and stereotyped behaviors. Knowledge gained by studying this model system may then be applie

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Potato late blight network for europe' (EUCABLIGHT) targeting Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Late blight (P.infestans), the most serious potato disease, costs more than l0, 000 million Euro/year in crop losses and control costs worldwide. Over 30-fungicide applications/year are made in some countries whilst host resistance is deployed in others. New evidence of the presence of both Al and A2 mating types of Pin in Europe poses the risk of increased diversity, earlier disease epidemics and the rapid breakdown of host resistance. To address these issues, this project incorporates the majority of late-blight research programmes from across Europe. Existing expertise will be exchanged, with the aim of standardising methods and creating universal databases of new and existing information ona) characterisation of P.infestans populationsb) the characterisation of foliage and tuber resistance of potato germplasm. This knowledge will be consolidated to plan future strategies for the sustainable control of disease.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'LIVING IN A FRINGE ENVIRONMENT - Investigating occupation and exploitation of desert frontier areas in the Late Roman Empire' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The scope of LIFE is to offer a complete set of archaeological and environmental data to be used to investigate Late Roman settlements along frontier desert areas and to reconstruct the underlying strategy to control the empire’s desert edges. The case study is the chain of Late Roman fortified settlements that punctuate the Kharga Oasis (Egypt’s Western Desert), that in the Fourth Century represented a portion of the southern boundary of the empire. All these sites, located in a remote and harsh environment, share the same architectural features and are endowed with similar agricultural installations, thus suggesting the existence of a highly motivated large-scale strategy of occupation of the region.A detailed study of Umm al-Dabadib, the best-preserved site, will produce a consistent set of criteria to be applied to the analysis of its less-preserved companions. In turn, a comprehensive study of these self-contained and self-sufficient settlements with a strong military flavour will allow a reconstruction of the Late Roman strategy of control over the desert routes that met in this oasis, and will offer an important contribution to the debate on the defence of the empire’s borders in the historical period from Diocletian to Constantine and beyond to the end of the Fourth Century.The sites will be studied using a combination of classic and innovative investigation techniques: 3D survey of the architectural remains, archaeological excavation of specific portions of both the built-up areas and the agricultural systems, archaeobotanical analyses, ceramic studies, analyses of satellite images, all carried out within the wider frame of an environmental study of the area and a historical analysis of the textual sources.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Sulfur radical chemistry of biological significance : the protective and damaging roles of thiol and thioether radicals' to be submitted under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The training programme will provide specialist skills appropriate to immediate challenges, and also lay down a more general framework of skills that will ensure young scientists can fulfill future leadership roles. The two approaches include training by fulfilling the scientific programme under personal supervision (including exchanges between institutes), and training by attendance at special courses, including a common education programme for all young research scientists employed. The latter will involve teaching in scientific method, publishing, language development, organizing work groups, problems of organizational structures and management roles, grant submissions, etc. To achieve these aims we propose two workshops, in addition to an exchange programme involving at least one or two other groups for periods of up to three months. Problem-solving exercises involving groups of 3-4 young scientists will be arranged. One open international conference in the field of the network will be organized, facilitating wider contributions from international experts and also the wider dissemination of the results of the Network.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'Smart lightweight structures in aerospace and transportation applications'.

assistant: **Innovation**

DLR is Germany's largest aerospace research establishment. Located at DLR's Institute of Structural Mechanics, the Department of Adaptive Structural Systems is the largest group of researchers to investigate smart lightweight structures in Germany. It is strongly committed to national and international collaboration with partners from industry and academia. Due to the system approach to smart structures, the department's activities span the entire range of modelling, design, manufacturing, control and experimental investigation of smart structures for shape control, vibration and noise reduction, and health monitoring applications. These activities are focused on the realization of carbon fibre structures with integrated actuators and sensors. The department's facilities include all equipment required for the experimental investigation of smart structures, i.e. accelerometers, powers amplifiers, data acquisition systems, controller development hardware, optical systems for static and dynamic deformation measurement, and FFT analyzers. Data processing is facilitated by a PC network, that is also used for finite element and multi-body simulations, and controller development. The manufacturing of smart composite structures is enabled by the institute's facilities, i.e. autoclave, filament winding machine, and resin injection facility. Available processes range from prepreg technology to differential pressure resin transfer molding. The training opportunities include analytical and numerical analysis, manufacturing technology, experimental investigation and development of control algorithms. According to the fellow's priorities, the training schedule will be individually adjusted. By collaborating with highly experienced scientists in interdisciplinary teams assigned to var

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Analysis of sugar- and osmo-signalling mechanisms in cell wall integrity maintenance' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Cell walls provide plant cells with structural support during growth and differentiation as well as with protection against environmental stress. Cell wall composition and structure is adapted to these functional requirements by a dedicated mechanism to maintain cell wall integrity (CWI). The available evidence suggests that the CWI mechanism is an important regulator of cell wall and carbohydrate metabolism and that signalling of sugar levels and osmotic conditions is vital for its function. Furthermore, interdependencies between pathogen defence and the CWI mechanism are becoming apparent.By performing a forward genetic screen in Arabidopsis, I will identify novel components involved in sugar-signalling in the context of CWI maintenance and pathogen defence. Using a combination of genetic mapping and next-generation sequencing, I will determine the identity of the components, whose specific activities will be identified through targeted functional analyses. In the second part of my project I will determine functions of the signalling metabolites trehalose-6-phosphate and glycerol-3-phophate in CWI maintenance and analyse the osmo-sensitive regulation of these functions. After characterizing time-dependent quantitative changes in metabolite levels and related enzyme activities upon impaired CWI and in combination with osmotic support, I will examine specific functions of metabolites / enzymes by analysing developmental, hormonal and structural responses in Arabidopsis overexpression and knockout lines. This project takes advantage of CWI maintenance involvement in a variety of biological processes to identify signalling components and osmo-sensitive mechanisms for the coordination of carbohydrate metabolism with cell wall metabolism and pathogen defence.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'High dissipative integrated modular electronic packages (PROJECT M3)' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Avionics and electronic equipment manufacturers are facing technological challenges linked to miniaturisation and cost reduction. The obstacles to more competitive integration in the products are thermal management and lack of standardisation. Electronic integration development cannot be conducted only in the avionics sector although it is often the most demanding in term of miniaturisation and weight reduction. 3D packaging enable many components made by different technologies to be combined in a single package and offer many advantages: systems performance, increased speed, miniaturisation, reduction of volume and weight, power efficiency and more reliability. In spite of overall reduction in power consumption the power densities are high in the embedded structures, resulting in limited module total power dissipation (max 10 W), and the proposed RTD aim at solving this problem (objective 30 W) by the use of micro heat pipes. Miniaturisation is a requirement for survival and competitiveness: it helps saving resources and opening new markets.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Recorded Sound Propaganda of the Italian Fascist Regime' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

If much has been said about the use of radio by the Italian fascists to establish and lead a regime that they wanted totalitarian from its advent, other devices of technicized sound, especially discs and their political affordances and effects, have been neglected. However, discs and phonographs were among the first technical sound devices and media to be available for political propaganda. Since the end of the 19th century, they have enabled political actors in the USA and Europe to transcend the time and space of their practice and to multiply their presence. In the interwar period, discs and recorded sound became fundamental parts of propaganda devices designed to elicit ideas, behavior, and adherence to a political project from massive audiences through sound. It appears then necessary to question the political functioning, the practices, and the social effects of propaganda discs, alone or associated with the radio or the loudspeaker, especially in a regime that its actors wished totalitarian. With ""REcorded Sound PropaganDa of the Italian Fascist REgime"" (REDIRE), I wish to inform the political role and effects of discs in the context of Italian fascism and to participate to the reflection on the political functioning of (technicized) sound, especially in a totalitarian regime. To do so, I will study the propaganda conceived by the regime to support the policies of development or perpetuation of fascism in time (education, identity, conservation and manipulation of cultural heritage) and space (colonization, war, transnational soft power, international existence of Italy). Through an investigation of the State archives and the press, I will examine the political uses of recorded sound engaged by fascist socio-technical networks, from their imaginary conception t
