user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Improved metallic GLASses for Small Implants through X-ray and biological characterisation of corrosion products' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Small metal implants such as dental implants or bone-anchored hearing aids need very good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance to avoid local inflammation and remain integrated in bone.  In GLASSIX, Ti-based metallic glasses will be developed specifically for small implants using a new approach to evaluate biocompatibility.  This is usually tested on passive metal surfaces, but recent work has shown that mechanically-assisted crevice corrosion (MACC) can generate metal particles and corrosion products that damage the surrounding tissue. In situ characterisation of corrosion products with synchrotron X-rays will be used to design standard simulated corrosion products that will then be tested on human cells to evaluate which corrosion products are most damaging.  The findings from this new approach will be fed back into the alloy development process together with information on feasibility of manufacture from Anthogyr, a leading manufacturer.  The project combines the ER’s expertise in metallic glasses, and the expertise of host researchers in corrosion, X-ray methods, clinical and biomedical research, and will equip the ER to carry out cutting edge research in an academic environment that can readily be translated into clinical and commercial success in the biomedical devices sector.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'sUstainable PlastiC biorefinerY for reCyclable and biodegradabLE packaging' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

UPCYCLE aims to demonstrate novel circular value chains that transform currently non-recyclable mixed plastic waste into biodegradable and recyclable materials for packaging applications. Building on the promising results of the H2020 UPLIFT project, UPCYCLE addresses specific scalability hotspots to reach economic viability. The project scales up its novel plastic biorefinery and ecopolymers with a strategy that leverages: (1) A Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design framework to ensure safety (i.e., non-toxic materials), a reduction in GHG emissions (-30%), and economic viability (<40% selling price); (2) AI-powered fast-track innovation for process intensification; (3) A versatile biorefinery process to valorise mixed plastic waste (both fossil- and bio-based) and secondary biomass residues; (4) A smart polymerisation and formulation strategy using bio-based, degradable additives to tune biodegradability and enhance technical performance for four selected packaging use cases.Leveraging a multidisciplinary consortium of top-tier academic institutions and industry leaders, UPCYCLE is poised to create significant impact in the packaging industry. UPCYCLE’s ecopolymers, derived from plastic and biomass waste streams, promote a viable circular business model for European recyclers, polymer processors, compounders, and packaging producers. Moreover, our strategy demonstrates how renewable and upcycled building blocks and additives can be blended into commercially available polymers to delivers novel PHA-, PLA- and Furan-based packaging formulations, to successfully modulate degradability and technical performance, based on the application. By providing the tools to improve properties and economic viability of polymers systems that are already in the market, we provide a fast-track

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'A Land Degradation and Desertification Appraisal System for South Africa' (LanDDApp), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Today, more than 50% of the Earth’s surface is covered by areas prone to land degradation and desertification (LDD). It is widely recognized that an understanding of LDD is central to the debate of global environmental change and sustainability. However, for all its importance to scientists and policy-makers confronting the complexities of environmental change, LDD is still poorly understood.One of the most seriously affected regions in the world is South Africa (SA) with ~440,000km2 vulnerable to some extent. Through desertiﬁcation, soil in SA has lost 25% or more of its fertility and the process is ongoing; moreover, large scale erosion and desertiﬁcation have led to food insecurity in several areas.Quantifying the processes of LDD is still very much a formidable, if not an impossible, task due to its complex nature and the use of desertification indices has become a common practice as a way around this hurdle. Remote sensing data adhere to the principles of repetitiveness, objectivity and consistency, which are prerequisites in the frame of monitoring and surveillance. However, no indicator of LDD is directly inferable from satellite-based data. Suitable indirect indicators need to be chosen, which can be related to LDD processes that operate in the specific area and scale of study. Moreover, studies of LDD must simultaneously consider both human- and environmental-based variables.In this context, this research will seek to assess LDD in the pilot-study area of North West Province of South Africa over the last twelve years. An operational, nested indicator appraisal system, LanDDApp, will be developed comprising of quantitative and qualitative LDD indices estimated using satellite imagery, field measurements, socio-economic data and geocomputation techniques.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Climate change predictions in Sub-Saharan Africa: impacts and adaptations' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Africa is probably the most vulnerable continent to climate change and climate variability and shows diverse range of agro-ecological and geographical features. Thus the impacts of climate change can be very high and will greatly differ across the continent, and even within countries. There is a urgent need for the most appropriate and up-to-date tools to better understand and predict climate change, assess its impact on African ecosystems and population, and develop the correct adaptation strategies. In particular the current proposal will focus on the following specific objectives: 1- Develop improved climate predictions on seasonal to decadal climatic scales, especially relevant to SSA; 2- Assess climate impacts in key sectors of SSA livelihood and economy, especially water resources and agriculture; 3- Evaluate the vulnerability of ecosystems and civil population to inter-annual variations and longer trends (10 years) in climate; 4- Suggest and analyse new suited adaptation strategies, focused on local needs; 5- Develop a new concept of 10 years monitoring and forecasting warning system, useful for food security, risk management and civil protection in SSA; 6- Analyse the economic impacts of climate change on agriculture and water resources in SSA and the cost-effectiveness of potential adaptation measures. This objectives will be achieved by an integrated working approach that involves 9 European, 8 African and 1 International Organization.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Management of environmental risks from landfills in seismically active regions in the New Independent States (NIS) of Central Asia' (NIS).

assistant: **Concept**

The NISMIST Project deals with analysis and management of hazardous landfills in seismically active regions of Central Asia. Geographical Information System (GIS) will be used for analysis of dynamic response of landfills, risk analysis and management of landfills, recommendations for cost-effective remediation measures, dissemination and creation of environmental awareness. The NISMIST Project will increase local research potential through analysis and management of environmental risks associated with landfills in seismically active regions and will be mutually beneficial to partners in Europe, Russia and NIS. The outcome of this project can also be applied to seismically active zones in Europe, e.g. Greece and Turkey. The key deliverables are: 1: GIS -database of landfills in participating NIS countries: Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. 2: Environmental risk analyses for representative landfill sites within the participating NIS countries. 3: A Partner Program me for young (under 35 years old) NIS scientists to work abroad with their project colleagues. 4: Recommendations for remediation measures and waste management strategies. 5: A series of local dissemination events and a final, international project symp osium.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Reconstruction of Pollinator-Mediated Speciation by Identification and Substitution of Causative Mutations'.

assistant: **Innovation**

A central aim of contemporary research on the origin of species is to identify the genes that are functionally differentiated between nascent species. Understanding the molecular-genetic basis of speciation will answer important questions that are of broad interest to geneticists, ecologists and evolutionary biologists. The RESPEC project will identify such “speciation genes”, map them onto conventional phylogenies and genetically reconstruct the process of speciation. Pollinator-mediated speciation is an attractive system to achieve these goals. Speciation in Petunia is recent, ongoing and prezygotic. Shifts in pollination syndromes are complex but are composed of distinct traits that can be studied individually. The advertising traits color and scent are known to be encoded by major effect genes, but for morphological traits no such information is available.The Objectives of RESPEC are:1. Substitute the four major-effect mutations for advertising traits into the hawkmoth-pollinated species, thereby creating an artificial mimic of the derived bee-pollinated species2. Identify the major-effect genes that specify the morphological differences between a moth- and a hummingbird-pollinated species3. Reconstruct the process of speciation during the shift from hawkmoth to hummingbird pollinationThe identification and functional analysis of a complete set of major-effect genes will for the first time provide comprehensive molecular information about the process of speciation in a single system. This will make it possible to construct a “functional phylogeny” that resolves the conflicts inherent in classical phylogenies of recent radiations. The allele substitution experiments will demonstrate the importance of major-effect genes in speciation as opposed to Darwin’s view of evo

user: Describe how 'A novel solution to eliminate long wires during Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring [WIONM] - Phase 1' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Proposal resubmission, scored 13.24 in latest cut-off.Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring [IONM] is an innovative technology to monitor nerve function integrity in the surgeries of nerves, spinal cord and part of brains. IONM reduces the risk of nerve injury up to 50%. Unfortunately, IONM is not problem free. IONM uses recording electrodes connected to long wires distributed on the patient under general anaesthesia. These long wires translate into several drawbacks, one is that they limit the manoeuvrability of surgeons and staff during surgery. Also, space constraints require routing the wires, making them behave as antennae and causing Electromagnetic Interference, which distorts the waveforms of weak electrical potentials from the nervous system. Finally, wired IONM solutions force neurophysiologists to monitor only one surgery per time, limiting their availability. Therefore, there is a clear need for a wireless IONM data link that could solve these issues. As a IONM devices distributor, SOINDE noticed this problem and decided to bridge this gap. Since 2014, we have been developing a Wireless IONM communication device, WIONM. WIONM’s Unique selling points are:-It eliminates long wires within the operating room while ensuring data integrity.-Plug-and-play architecture & compatibility with any commercial IOMN device.-Remote monitoring of multiple surgeries, helping to relieve the shortage of neurophysiologists.-It is up to 86% more economical than other commercial competitors.Once tested in Phase 2, we will market WIONM through an elaborate commercial plan that takes advantage of our extensive client portfolio and our already established partnerships with other medical suppliers.The success of WIONM will allow us to seize part of the €1.87 billion (CAGR of 9.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Electrical Modulation of Elastic Moduli'.

assistant: **Concept**

How could a textile change its feel upon the push of a button? While we are accustomed to visual displays and loudspeakers, interactive tactile perception largely eludes our experience. Textiles that change their pliability and texture would allow for communication using our sense of touch. Potential applications abound, from human-machine interfaces for robotics to new forms of virtual reality.To facilitate such a tuneable mechanical response, materials are needed whose stiffness can be altered. This project will use conjugated polymers to realise stimuli-responsive materials. The developed materials will be spun into fibres and yarns, which will be integrated into prototype textile devices that can undergo a reversible change in pliability and texture. The explored materials science concepts will open up a new line of research in the blossoming field of organic electronics, while the application-oriented part of the project opens new horizons for the interdisciplinary field of wearable electronics.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Snowball Earth: Equatorial glaciations in the Neoproterozoic', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Evidence from the Neoproterozoic geological period suggests that at least three times in the Earth's history, there were extreme variations in global climate which resulted in marine glaciers forming in equatorial latitudes, which in turn may have provided the trigger for the Cambrian explosion of multi-cellular life forms.The most popular model to explain this climatic phenomenon is the Snowball Earth hypothesis which necessitates dramatic and catastrophic changes in global climatic, hydrological and biological systems. Counter models involve either major changes in the Earths orbital axis, possibly as the result of a gigantic meteorite impact, or refutation that the sedimentary sequences are truly glaciomarine or that they were deposited at the equator. Pivotal to all models is the position of the continents prior to and during glaciation. Thus palaeomagnetism, being the most reliable technique available for positioning Proterozoic continents, is crucial to our understanding of the processes involved. Unfortunately only very few reliable data are available and the position of most of the continents remains unconstrained for the time in question. In a multidisciplinary approach, the aims of this project are to use palaeomagnetism in conjunction with sedimentology, geochemistry and isotope geology to determine Proterozoic geography, and the sedimentological and chemostratigraphic characteristics of the sequences deposited during these controversial periods.Suitable sequences have been selected in a number of different cratons. The proposed high profile international research group will form one of the main European focal points for collaborative and interdisciplinary research into one of the most exiting and provocative research areas to have developed within the Earth

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Tools for design and validation of embedded control systems' (1994-1998), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The central focus of the OMI/TOOLS project is the validation and observation of combined hardware/software systems, in particular of embedded control systems (ECS). By validation we mean the derivation of statements about the correct function and the adequate timing (performance) of a given system. By observation we mean the collection, storage, retrieval and visualisation of relevant performance and design flow data.The objective of the OMI/TOOLS project is the horizontal and vertical integration of the hardware and software design process. For that purpose the project will use and adapt existing tools and develop new ones. These tools will be embedded in a common framework which allows the exchange of design data and provides a common user interface and visualisation approach. The result of the OMI/TOOLS project is a set of tools integrated in an existing framework. The tools will not cover the entire development cycle. Instead they will focus on some areas of the development cycle, namely- verification - system modelling and simulation - monitoring - performance evaluation - traceability Horizontal validation tools support the validation of combined software/hardware system representations on different abstraction levels. A mixed-level simulation environment provides simulation on the system level as well as behavioural, physical, execution-driven, instruction-driven and OS kernel modules. Monitoring of hardware/software systems is supported as well. Vertical validation tools maintain the design consistency between different abstraction levels. An observation and performance analysis component provides a consistent view of the system behaviour and performance data throughout the design process. A verification tool supports a formal method to guarantee the correctness

user: Draft an impact statement for 'The Digital Ludeme Project: Modelling the Evolution of Traditional Games', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

The development of games goes hand in hand with the development of human culture. Games offer a rich window of insight into our cultural past, but early examples were rarely documented and our understanding of them is incomplete. While there has been considerable historical research into games and their use as tools of cultural analysis, much is based on the interpretation of partial evidence with little mathematical analysis. This project will use modern computational techniques to help fill these gaps in our knowledge empirically.I will represent games as structured sets of ludemes (units of game-related information), which will allow the full range of traditional strategy games to be modelled in a single software system for the first time. This system will not only model and play games, but will evaluate reconstructions for quality and authenticity, and automatically improve them where possible. This will lay the foundations for a new field of study called digital archaeoludology, which will involve addressing technical challenges that could yield significant benefits in their own right, particularly in artificial intelligence.The ludemic model reveals innate mathematical relationships between games, allowing phylogenetic analysis. This provides a mechanism for creating a family tree/network of traditional games, which could reveal missing links and allow ancestral state reconstruction to shed light on the gaps in our partial knowledge. Locating ludemes culturally provides a mechanism for creating interactive maps that chart the transmission of mathematical ideas across cultures through play. This project seeks to bridge the gap between historical and computational studies of games, to provide greater insight into our understanding of them as cultural artefacts, and
