user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Development of cost-effective material manufacturing methods for furnace skidmark elimination' (1994-1998) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

In pusher type slab reheat furnaces, because of the construction of the heating zone, heat radiation from the bottom burners is obstructed by the sliding skids which support the slab. This causes temperature differences (skidmarks) along the length of the slab. The soak zone, which includes a hearth of bricks or stone, does reduce the temperature differences, but not sufficiently, because the soak zone is either too short or the required heating rate is too great to be obtainable. The technique chosen to eliminate the temperature differences comprises horizontally-mounted electrical heating elements placed in a tunnel below the bottom stones of the furnace hearth. The proposed method is the only one in which the additional heat is applied directly after the cooling effect of the skids is at its greatest. The innovation needs product and material development. The target of the SMEs is to get new saleable products and to posses a higher level of expertise to use in their conventional activities after the the project is complete. The lifetime of the system must be at least two years, the typical rebuilding frequency for a furnace hearth. At present, hearth materials are not designed for this purpose and the formation of the covering stones must be achieved with more cost-effectiveness than by diamond drilling. Also a compact system to combine with the covering stones in order to achieve a sufficiently short mounting time to suit furnace rebuilt programmes will be developed. The intended project includes a demonstration part. The project is very pre-competive in character because the intended work is in the nature of research and development. The final product development for saleable products must be made by the SMEs on the basis of the project results.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Designing regulatory frameworks in newly engineered markets - strategies for companies and regulators'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Most European countries have already started, or are planning, privatisation's of public owned firms. However, little research has been carried out to help companies formulate strategy in these new markets. At the same time, few tools has been developed, with the exception of economics, to help the regulatory authorities evaluate the transition to a competitive market and the long-term performance of regulatory frameworks. The aim of this proposal is to develop a framework that can be used both by newly privatised companies and regulatory authorities to help understand newly engineered markets. The framework, which builds on industry simulation, will try to link insights from economics, organisational theory and strategy. This will provide a behavioural theory which can be used to understand the evolution of newly engineered markets.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Enabling motor control after a spinal cord injury through nanoscaled electrical' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Concept**

A spinal cord injury (SCI) has consistent social costs, due to dramatic and disabling consequences and a high incidence on the youngest and most productive population, which can hardly be alleviated by the very few and controversial therapeutic treatments. In a recent case report, epidural electrostimulation combined with an intense training enabled some highly variable conscious motor control of legs in four motor complete spinal cord injured volunteers. The aim of understanding the mechanisms behind these improvements can help define more effective pharmacological and electrical stimulating protocols with breakthrough technology to restore functions after a SCI. Experiments will be performed on adult rats, with an experimental SCI closer to human chronic lesions, on which I will apply the novel enabling protocol with epidural electrostimulation associated with an intense motor training. Outcome will be evaluated with innovative combinations of electromyographic and kinematic assessments of locomotion and standing posture, in vivo terminal intracellular recordings from lumbar motoneurons and histological examination of spared axons across the lesion. Then, I will employ carbon nanotubes to devise nanostructured innovative stimulation arrays for a more specific and focussed epidural stimulation to enhance recovery. The unique experience of Prof. Edgerton and Prof. Ballerini will allow me to acquire new skills on both preclinical SCI models and assessments and nanotechnologies, to increase my international collaborations, support my research through greater funds and a new in vivo research line, with the aims of obtaining a professorship and a greater visibility in the field. The project is deemed to advance and diffuse scientific knowledge and further sustain European c

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Monoallelic Gene Expression in Malaria Parasites: A Key Mechanisms in the Pathogen's Survival Strategy' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

An important number of human and animal pathogens use antigenic variation of surface proteins as a mechanism to avoid destruction by the host s immune system. Most escape mechanisms rely on the successive expression of members of gene families in a mutually exclusive manner, a biological process which remains elusive at the molecular level. The protozoan pathogen Plasmodium falciparum, which infects up to 300 million people causing more than two million lives each year, undergoes antigenic variation to establish chronic blood stage infection. A critical determinant in chronic infection and pathogenesis is the expression of clonally variant molecules at the surface of infected erythrocytes. Several variant gene families undergo antigenic variation in P. falciparum and are expressed during blood stage infection. One family encoded by 60 var genes expresses the most well-known virulence factor causing severe malaria (capillary blockages in the brain and other organs mediated by infected erythrocytes). Switching expression between the 60-member var gene family avoids immune clearance and prolongs the period of infection and transmission to the mosquito. The initial event controlling mono allelic expression at a unique expression site remains elusive and represents the Holly Graal in the field of phenotypic variation. To this end, the major objective of this proposal is to identify specific factors contributing to active expression sites (proteins, DNA enhancer or ncRNA) by using novel strategies such as Proteomics of Isolated Chromatin segments (PICh) and Chromosome Conformation Capture (3C). We expect that new insights into the underlying principles of gene counting of virulence gene families may reveal an Achilles Heel of the parasite s immune evasion strategy.

user: Describe how 'Molecular Magnetic Materials Based on Nanographenes: Controllable Synthesis and Characterization' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Molecular magnets based molecular spintronics, in which properties of bulk magnetic materials and molecular quantum effects coexist, have received a lot of attention, with potential applications in molecular spin detection and manipulation for information storage and the realization of spin qubits for quantum computing. But, the field has been struggling with limited candidates, and there is a constant searching for new materials. Recently, nanographenes, including graphene molecules (GMs) and graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have displayed great potential in the application of electronics. The combination of nanographene with spin-bearing centers has been proved to be an effective way to construct novel molecular magnetic materials. However, to achieve reliable structure-property correlations and desired functions, control of the nanographene structure at the atomic level is required. This goal can be realized through bottom-up syntheses starting with rationally designed molecular precursors. The primary objective of this project is using bottom-up synthetic approach to efficiently realize radical functionalized GMs and GNRs with defined structures, to systematically investigate the impact of their size and configuration on the behaviour of spin (multidisciplinary), and finally to reveal the intrinsic mechanism of spin-injection and interaction in molecular magnetic materials based on nanographenes (interdisciplinary).This project will create an excellent opportunity for me to build upon my own expertise in bottom-up synthesis of graphene molecules possessing atomically precise structures with the Prof. Bogani group’s experience in the research of magnetic and electronic properties of nanocarbon materials.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'lightning protection for structures and systems on aircraft utilising lightweight composites.'.

assistant: **Concept**

The European Aviation Industry has been quick to use lightweight composite materials, especially Carbon Fibre, for primary structures and flight control surfaces. Composites are lightweight, stiff, and provide smooth, aerodynamically efficient surfaces.C arbon Fibre is particularly attractive because it has good corrosion and fatigue properties. This results in enhanced efficiency and performance and a significant weight reduction.However,lightning protection is d ifficult to incorporate into a composite aircraft compared to a conventional aluminium one. Composite airframes also give less electromagnetic shielding compared to aluminium, making it more difficult to protect avionic systems. Both aspects are worse for light aircraft because of their small size and low weight.This proposal addresses the nee d to optimise lightning protection systems for aircraft withlightweight composite structure. It will allow manufacturers to make safe use of the performance advantage provided by such materials.Work will include: The identification of lightning protection solutions for lightweight composite structure. Lightning testing and modelling of materials, structures and components to provide data to support design and certification. Materials that will be inve stigated will include: lightweight composite skins with carbon, glass or honeycomb. A test programme to develop designs and guidlines for other areas where protection is difficult to achieve or demonstrate; especially flight control surfaces, fuel syste ms, canopies, and glass fibre structure. Avionics Systems and Power Bus protection, including testing of mock up systems. On modern aircraft the dependence on sophisticated flight critical avionics requires that these systems be shown to operate during and after an aircraft

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Cell and gene therapy based approaches for treatment of Parkinson's disease: from models to clinics'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Parkinson s disease is one of the common causes of disability in the aging population, representing a major health problem for the affected individuals and a socioeconomic burden to the society. In the present proposal, the applicant puts forward an ambitious but feasible program to tackle a number of significant issues that remain unsolved in the field. He combines his strong track record in animal models of Parkinson s disease and novel cell and gene therapy-based therapeutic strategies with powerful bio-imaging techniques in order to make bold steps towards translation of new and better treatments to patients suffering from this illness. He does so in a manner that combines, on one hand, the strength of clearly-defined hypotheses and well-established tools for results towards clinical translation, with high-risk high-reward projects that hold the potential to yield ground-breaking discoveries in implementation of novel imaging techniques, on the other.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'REsearch is Fun, yoUng and Ever Living' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The Re-Fuel project will treasure the experience capitalised in the past editions (RCCS (2006), ReASON (2007), REPLAY (2008) and Re-Party (2009) and will continue to work as accumulation point for resources, ideas, energies and expertise which will ensure the full regional coverage, both in Piedmont and Aosta Valley. Partners’ and over 50 organisations’ endeavours will concentrate on organising a Researcher’s Night in two city more than in 2009 and Aosta Valley, in order to offer to citizens a widened offer and opportunity to meet researchers and their life and work and to interact with them.The 2010 edition will stress three of the very many characteristics that may describe research as a fun, young and ever living human activity. This will be the starting point expressed by the project title itself and by the acronym, suggesting that fun lays in the inner core for every scientific investigation and that this is keeping it young and yet not a new come. The result is an ever-living propelling engine for humankind evolution, fuelled by new generations’ interests and involvement.In this scenario, and after the ESOF2010 event, Turin will be the 2010 European Youth Capital (EYC) and will be given the chance to to showcase its youth-related cultural, social, political and economic life and development. 2010 Researchers’ Night will be one of Turin EYC cornerstone events.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'INNOvative mapping, reporting and forecasting of CYANObacteria blooms applying the synergistic use of advanced in situ optical data, satellite imagery and statistical modelling' (INNO-CYANO) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Water Insight (WI) specialises in high quality spatial information products for monitoring surface water quality applying the synergistic use of Earth Observation (EO) and optical in situ measurements. Based on a close interaction with users, WI wants to add a new user-tailored service branch to their portfolio: forecasting of cyanobacteria blooms.Due to climate change and anthropogenic activity, massive blooms of cyanobacteria become an increasing problem for lakes world-wide. Cyanobacteria may be toxic for animals and humans, change the water quality and ecosystems. The consequences are visible in social, economic and industrial levels. While WI's technology has been proven to be very suitable for monitoring the development of cyanobacteria blooms, water managers also require quick and precise forecasts of the blooms development to take timely measures or mitigating actions. Existing process-based forecasting models are complex, need a too long processing time and more input data than is operationally available. WI has an extensive dataset of EO and in situ data on affected lakes. A data-driven statistical model could be developed based on these data, and significantly reduce the processing time for a forecast. To develop such a model, a highly-skilled searcher (PhD) is required, with specialised knowledge of EO data, proven skills in statistical modelling, cyanobacterial ecology and water quality. It is difficult for WI to recruit such a specialist as there is a lack of university graduates, particularly on the PhD level, in this field in the Netherlands.INNO-CYANO will be beneficial for all: WI will get the chance to hire a specialist to develop our innovative ideas, the candidate will get the chance to get an insight in the practice of a commercial company and to d

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Criminal Law and Sovereignty: Dual Criminality - An Anachronism?' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

International criminal cases are a challenge to all jurisdictions. The overall concern today is that differences in substantive law may hamper extraterritorial jurisdiction or co-operation in criminal matters in view of the dual criminality requirement. However, the topic of dual criminality and related hypotheses requires research in order to answer the pressing question of whether abolishing this requirement would indeed satisfy expectations with regard to facilitating extraterritorial jurisdiction and international co-operation. Additional research is also necessary to examine the consequences and to point out possible problems associated with doing away with the dual criminality requirement.The research project focuses on the fundamental idea of an intercultural criminal law". In order to evaluate the extent to which criminal law might effectively be or become intercultural, this research project will use a multidisciplinary approach and a comparative analysis of various legal systems will be undertaken. As the relationship between punitive power and national sovereignty is also based on the assumption that criminal law has national and cultural roots and is part of the identity of a nation, its society and culture, the extent to which criminal law may be or may become intercultural must be examined, and criminal law's function with regard to norm assertion and social control must be taken into account.A criminal law monograph such as foreseen by this project does not exist, even though a thorough discussion of the subject would be extremely useful in the shaping of legal and criminal policy within the European Union as well as in relation to its neighbouring States. The Marie Curie Fellowship would facilitate this research project - the habilitation project of the

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'A search for supersymmetric higgs bosons using the aleph detector at lep 2' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Research objectives and content The project is to be carried out using ALEPH, one of four multipurpose detectors operating at the Large Electron Positron (LEP) storage ring at CERN, Geneva. The data sample taken by ALEPH resulting from large energy collisions at LEP will be used to search for supersymmetric Higgs bosons. The Higgs boson is a yet undiscovered particle which is predicted to exist by the theory as a by product of the process of spontaneous symmetry breaking. The work content will consist of participating in the data taking in con- nection with the responsibilities of the host institution and analysing the resulting data. The eventual goal will be to either significantly improve the limit on the supersymmetric Higgs boson masses or, if the masses are low enough to be in the energy range of LEP 2, to discover and precisely measure the properties of these particles. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) The selection of the data will be optimised on Monte Carlo simulation. Powerful statistical methods will be used in the derivation of the mass lim- its. The analysis therefore brings valuable experience in searching for small signals; training which may become important in light of the proposed plan to build 'discovery' experiments using the Large Hadron Collider at CERN.
