user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Topological phononics through nano-optomechanical interactions' (TOPP), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The concept of topology has proven very powerful in predicting and explaining a range of intriguing phenomena for the behaviour of electrons in solid-state materials, including the existence of topological phases that offer robust transport with unusual characteristics. This program aims to create and study topological behaviour for sound in systems that couple light and mechanical motion through radiation pressure. I will realize on-chip nano-optomechanical systems where many optical and mechanical modes interact. Through this interaction, suitable laser illumination will induce phononic transport with properties that are not found in any natural material. In particular, they will establish topologically nontrivial acoustic phases that we will create and explore in space and time using a new optical measurement technique. The induced behaviour crucially depends on the extreme coupling between optical fields and nanomechanical resonators when both are confined at the nanoscale. I aim to study three manifestations of topological behaviour: (1) The creation of an acoustic quantum Hall phase, in which topologically protected unidirectional sound propagation should emerge, in edge modes that are robust against disorder. (2) The formation of a new type of topological insulator arising from optomechanical nonlinearity, supporting topological acoustic solitons with unusual dynamics. (3) The breaking of parity-time symmetry in mechanical systems that undergo both optical damping and amplification, a phase transition with unique topological properties.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'RTP801, A NEGATIVE REGULATOR OF mTOR AND AKT, AS A TARGET OF PARKIN""' (2007-2013), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

In this proposal, we hypothesize that RTP801, a neuron-death associated protein, is a target for parkin in cellular and animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD). We will test whether parkin regulates the proteasomal degradation of RTP801 and whether parkin loss of function elevates RTP801 to mediate neuron death in cellular and animal models of PD. RTP801 is elevated in cell and animal models of PD and in affected neurons of PD patients. In PD models, RTP801 up regulation leads to inactivation of mTOR and Akt, and therefore neuron death. Parkin is a PD-associated gene that, when mutated, triggers juvenile recessive-autosomal forms of PD. Controversially, mutations in only one allele of parkin gene can be a risk factor for Parkinsonism. Our preliminary results suggest that RTP801 is degraded by the ubiquitin proteasome system and that parkin impairment leads to RTP801 accumulation in vitro. We will investigate whether parkin loss of function triggers toxic accumulation of RTP801 at a transcriptional level and/or at the protein level, due to degradation impairment. We will analyze the toxicity of different parkin mutations and if so, whether they induce cell death through RTP801. In this context, we will also investigate whether the mTOR /Akt survival pathway is impaired. Moreover we will investigate whether mutant Parkin -Q311X mice show RTP801 accumulation in the Substantia Nigra (SN). Finally, and if available, we will explore the levels of RTP801 in human tissue from patients with several parkin mutations to see if the samples exhibit elevated levels of RTP801 in the affected neuromelanin neurons in the SN. The final goal of these experiments will be a better understanding of neural degeneration in the disease and will help to design effective therapeutic approaches

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Lactic acid and biosurfactants sourced from sustainable agricultural and industrial (food) WASTE feedstocks as novel FUNCtional ingredients for consumer products' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The WASTE2FUNC project aims to resolve supply chain hurdles towards the efficient conversion of food (crop) waste into two types of biobased functional molecules for use in home- and personal care applications: lactic acid and microbial biosurfactants, functionally outperforming or equalling their respective fossil-based and/or 1G bio-based benchmarks. A new and sustainable biomass waste supply chain will be set up, in close interaction with the primary sector, by developing an ‘ad hoc’ registration- and collection system for erratic agricultural biomass waste and integrating this new biomass supply chain with an existing industrially available and continuous food waste stream , currently converted into biogas. This integration is crucial to build viable business cases associated with the WASTE2FUNC supply- and -value chains. The integration of the WASTE2FUNC biomass supply chain with new value chains based on the cost- and eco- efficient conversion of the waste biomass into market ready functional molecules for home- and personal care applications will be demonstrated. The value chains will be set up by (interaction with) all relevant key stakeholders: farmers and their representatives, primary crop-/food processors, food processors and -retailers, food waste collectors, technology owners for bio-based process, scale up facilities, product developers and -retailers in the respective sectors of application (home- and personal care) (B2B and B2C), regulators and last but not least the consumer  .   This interaction will be key to define benefits required for the farmers, regulatory- and processing hurdles, product developer- and consumer requirements and -constraints.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'A TEAM-BUILDING, THEMATICALLY-FOCUSED AND LEAN-TRAINING SUMMER ACADEMY SYSTEM FOR YOUNG FUTURE ICT ENTREPRENEURS' (STARTIFY7) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

An innovative training structure focused on addressing the limited capability of young European ICT future entrepreneurs is needed. This is a challenging task, since existing European ICT entrepreneurship training initiatives are characterised by a general fragmentation and a lack of a ‘learning-by-doing’ training approach. STARTIFY7 is an innovative and ambitious project aiming to go beyond the state-of-the-art and create strong synergies with existing initiatives and projects. It suggests a unique approach to ICT entrepreneurial education for the youth, with the following objectives: 1) Perform a thorough Training Needs Analysis for the future ICT entrepreneurs. 2) Embed a team-building process within a lean-training structure. 3) Establish an effective network of trainers. 4) Create innovative lean-training curricula with thematic ICT focus. 5) Ignite competition and strong synergies with existing initiatives. 6) Disseminate, exploit and ensure long-term sustainability. The innovative outcomes of the project are the following: 1) Seven Summer Academies in 7 different European cities within a timeframe of two sequential summers (i.e. 2015 and 2016). 2) Seven lean-training and thematically-focused training curricula, embedding a strong team-building process. 3) An integrated network of trainers focused on hands-on and real-world knowledge transfer. 4) A competition based on the best performing teams after the completion of each round of summer academies. 5) Complement, extend and enrich similar existing actions. 6) A centralized social networking service. 7) ECTS credits provision. 8) An integrated exploitation and sustainability plan with the aim of making STARTIFY7 a long-term viable Summer Academy.STARTIFY7 will aim for 1.400 applications from potential entrepreneur

user: Draft an impact statement for 'BioEnergy Sustaining the Future : Joint Strategic Planning and Programming to Enable the Implementation of Bioenergy Demonstrations.', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

BESTF will bring together a number of national and transnational initiatives in the field of bioenergy. These include; research, development, demonstration and financial instruments. They have been stimulated and driven by both public and private participants. By integrating these actions, risk will be minimised and confidence will be provided to private investors in support of bringing bioenergy closer to market and in Europe. This project aims to kick-start large scale investment in close-to-market implementation of bioenergy thereby helping to achieve the key objectives of the European Industrial Bioenergy Initiative (EIBI) Implementation Plan: “To enable commercial availability of advanced bioenergy at large scale by 2020, aiming at production costs allowing competitiveness with fossil fuels at the prevailing economic and regulatory market conditions, and advanced biofuels covering up to 4% of transportation energy needs by 2020. To strengthen EU technology leadership for renewable transport fuels, serving the fastest growing area of transport fuels in the world”. This project will closely address the requirements of Topic ENERGY.2012.10.1.1: ERA-NET_Plus – Bioenergy Demonstrations of the European Industrial Bioenergy Initiative, aligning it to the wider strategic European requirements: to increase the security of energy supply and to increase the sustainability of energy supply.BESTF will implement a single collaborative funding call that will support projects focused on the generation of bioenergy: energy generated directly or indirectly from sustainable biomass. These projects will have been based on prior high quality research undertaken at a European, national or industrial level but require a final “non-economic step to demonstrate the performance and reliabil

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Fast Multitarget Pathogen Detection Platform Traceable within a Quality Assurance System' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Every year, millions of people become ill and thousands die as a result of eating unsafe food. According to the European Food and Safety Authority more than 320,000 human cases of food-borne diseases caused by pathogenic micro-organisms are reported each year in Europe. For that reason, the European Food Safety Authority is imposing strict food safety regulations specifying the maximum permitted level of any contaminant in food. EFSA has also specified that all food manufacturers are responsible for safety of the food they commercialize. The implementation of these regulations has resulted in the growth of the food safety testing market as well as new innovative technologies for detection of all kinds of pathogens. In this regard, the project QFast2 aims at performing a feasibility study for the market introduction of the first Rapid Multi-Target Pathogen Detection Kit in development by iMICROQ. This is a revolutionary product that will enable the fast (<24h), cost-effective and simultaneous detection of three different pathogens (Salmonella, Listeria Monocytogenes and Staphylococcus) directly on-site for food&feed safety industry by non-specialised personnel, with a platform that allows the user to implement the instrument within its own information technology protocol, with full traceability of the sample through the overall process.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Inspection Magnetique de Surface (Contacless magnetic inspection)'.

assistant: **Concept**

90% of Oil and Gas products are transported and distributed through a network of pipelines.  These networks are, for the most part, buried metallic structures which makes them prone to corrosion.  To ensure their operational safety most countries require compulsory inspection every 6/10 years, minimum. The inspections are usually conducted through instruments that are inserted into the pipeline to assess its structural integrity. However, due to operational constraints, 30% of the worldwide network (1.5 million KM or 38 times the circumference of planet earth) cannot be inspected with such tool.  This constitutes a real security threat for operators with potentially significant human, environmental and material consequences. Skipper NDT has developed an innovative technology that allows the contactless inspection (from the surface of the ground) of pipeline that cannot be tested with the technology currently available.  This technology will help reduce incidents which result in toxic products being spilled on the ground (Oil) or evaporated in the atmosphere and contributing to the greenhouse effect (Gas) in addition to protecting the people in proximity.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Understanding and coping with food markets voLatilitY towards more Stable World and EU food SystEmS'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The literature published in the last 3 years trying to explain agricultural markets instability during 2007-2009 offers inconclusive results about its causes and impacts. On balance, available scientific evidence gives insufficient guidance for prioritizing policy initiatives, and for effectively averting and mitigating new food crises. Based on an integrated approach, Project ULYSSES seeks to provide general, but sufficiently detailed, responses to the main questions that have been recently posed in the literature and debated in political sphere: a)What are the causes of markets’ volatility increases since 2007?;b)What drivers are volatility-increasing and which others are price level-increasing?; c)How likely is that the main commodity markets will experience new episodes of large volatility?d)To what extent increasing volatility affects agents in the value chain?;e)What are the actual impacts on the most vulnerable households in the EU and in selected developing countries?; f)What policies are more effective to avert and mitigate the effects of markets’ volatility at the EU and international levels?ULYSSES has six objectives:1.Review the literature on prices volatility of food, feed and non-food commodities2.Analyse agricultural markets, using updated data, new methods and markets linkages with a view to determine the causes of markets' volatility3.Identify and evaluate the drivers and factors causing markets volatility, and make projections for supply shocks, demand changes and climate change impacts on agricultural production.4.Evaluate the impact of markets volatility in the food supply chain in the EU and in developing countries, analysing traditional and new instruments to manage price risks.5.Evaluate impacts of markets volatility on households in the EU and de

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'COOPERATION BETWEEN STATES AND NON-STATE ARMED GROUPS: SYTEMATIC OR RANDOM PARTNERSHIPS?' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The objective of this project is to advance my existing research on state support for Non-state Armed Groups (NAGs) including terrorists, ethnic, religious, and ideological insurgencies and guerrilla organizations. NAGs are defined by three characteristics: the absence of a formal affiliation to a state or its armed forces, resort to violence to achieve their objectives, pursuit of political objectives, such as secession, autonomy, or change of government, regime type and/or leadership. State support is defined in terms of two characteristics: 1- support type or form, which may include providing safe havens, training camps, arms and logistics, funds, and troops, 2- whether support is intentional, i.e. emerges as a result of a deliberate act on the part of a government or leadership to create channels to assist a NAG, or de facto, i.e. NAGs exploit domestic weaknesses of states and open doors to extract material and human resources. Although this distinction is essential for developing proper policies for dealing with violence generated by NAGs worldwide, it is hardly acknowledged in the existing research. Various datasets on terrorist groups, insurgent movements, and civil wars fail to address external supporters systematically as one of the key explanatory variables when it comes to these groups’ formation and survival. This project will expand the dataset that I have composed during my Ph.D. study (see Appendix I for a list of NAGs on which data have been collected) and pave the way for the formation of a hub that will be in constant communication with the scientists in Europe and US.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Capital Accumulation Through Informal Urbanization in India' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Innovation**

Unauthorized development, informal real estate & housing markets and informal settlements, referred to collectively here as 'informal urbanization' (IU), remain durable, and likely expanding, in much of the global South. IU hampers the implementation of any urban development plan or policy that require land and which require adequate information about land use and above and below ground infrastructure. While much is known about how capital is accumulated and regulated in sectors of the formal economy, much less is known about how this works in the informal economy and very little is known about how this works in IU sectors. This is due to the assumption, influenced by de Soto's work, that the lack of formalproperty rights leads to 'dead capital', i.e., capital that cannot accumulate. This wisdom must be challenged for if IU is a significant domain of accumulation, then policies and politics by planners and lawmakers for sustainable & inclusive urban development range from inadequacy to lack of fitness for purpose. This Fellowship integrates David Harvey's accumulation theory with Barbara Harriss-White's social structure of accumulation approach to the informal economy to establish a new strand of research. Fieldwork will occur in two municipalities in India where IU is widespread. The aims are: (1) synthesize the theory & evidence of accumulation via IU and its consequences for urban governance and inclusive development more generally (2) qualitatively study & record the phenomena in six cases (3) apply cross-case analysis and (4) disseminatefindings via journal articles, policy briefs, city reports, roundtables with respondents, curriculum input & guest lectures.
