user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Silicon mid-infrared photodetectors' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The aim of this PoC proposal (SMIRP) is the fabrication, characterisation and validation of commercially competitive silicon mid-infrared (IR) photodetector prototypes, operating in the 2-15 microns range, for demonstration to commercialisation partners and designed to replace current detectors made from mercury cadmium telluride (MCT), lead sulphide, lead selenide and arsenic containing alloys.Silicon detectors currently completely dominate the UV, visible and very near-IR regions - however they do not work above 1.2 microns. Following the discovery of band edge modified rare earth optical transitions, specific to europium, ytterbium and cerium in silicon, under the current SILAMPS (Silicon Integrated Lasers and Optical Amplifiers) Advanced Investigator Grant, we have demonstrated that we can extend silicon responsivity from 1.2 microns, at the silicon band gap, out to the important mid-IR region and beyond. Experimentally the responsivities and detectivities of our latest devices now offer a real challenge to existing detector materials and devices in the 2 to 15 microns range currently dominated by more exotic and expensive materials such as MCT. Replacing these materials with silicon based detectors would offer enormous benefits in cost, reliability, performance and integration with the silicon microelectronics for detection and imaging, as well as using much less toxic materials and production processes. Low leakage currents achievable in silicon based photodiodes mean that further development of this new silicon based technology may lead to room temperature or thermoelectrically cooled detectors, replacing current detectors that have to be cooled to liquid nitrogen temperatures (77 K) to achieve sufficiently high detectivity values to be useful.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Towards an Integrated Marine and Maritime Science Community' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The ‘Aberdeen plus interest group’ joined forces with the ‘Venice Platform group’ to take further steps in integrating the marine, maritime and coastal research sectors in Europe. The goal is to establish a sustainable and long-lasting partnership forum (“European Marine and Maritime Forum”), based on shared interests and shared leadership, and to test it on regional seas and pan-European basis. The process will contribute to developing interactions between partners (the research community, industry, regional authorities, civil society and other stakeholders) starting from regional scales to broader issues shared with EU-neighbouring countries. This, being in line with the European Strategy for Marine and Maritime Research, will underpin the future integrated EU Maritime Policy. The action will be supported by the already established key structures and will constitute a Forum which will be an operationally open structure.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'EPIC - ExPloring the ecohydrological Impacts of a changing Cryosphere in the Peruvian Andes' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Glacier runoff is vital for the downstream populations and ecosystems of the Peruvian Andes. However previous predictions of future runoff have failed to take account of the complexity of the glacier surface energy balance nor of future vegetation succession. Our project aims to provide a new, interdisciplinary understanding of the possible futures of the hydrology of the Cordillera Blanca, combining changes in climate, glaciers, hydrology and ecosystems, and disentangling their interactions. We will use the advanced ecohydrological model Tethys-Chloris, which takes a physically-based approach to representing glacier and catchment processes. We will determine both the key drivers of Peruvian glacier mass balance and the role of vegetation in altering the catchment water balance. Through ‘big-data’ remote sensing approaches we will identify the past changes in land cover and wetland area and how they have coincided with glacier recession. We will then assess the future of the region’s hydrology, including the changing climate, glacier evolution and scenarios of vegetation succession, to provide a holistic view of the controls on projected catchment runoff. The proposed fellow has a strong background in the glacier surface energy balance, remote sensing and glacier hydrology, but she will diversify her knowledge to encapsulate catchment modelling, ecological understanding and the use of large geospatial data archives. She will be supported by Dr Francesca Pellicciotti who is a world-class scientist specialising in the use of physically-based approaches to modelling high mountain catchments. This project will therefore not only provide unique insights into the future hydrology of the Peruvian Andes but will also provide a springboard for the fellow to become a truly interd

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'MYOELECTRIC INTERFACING WITH SENSORY-MOTOR INTEGRATION' (MYOSENS).

assistant: **Concept**

Biological signals recorded from the human body can be translated into actions of external devices to create man-machine interaction. This concept has clinical implications in rehabilitation technologies for replacing or recovering impaired motor functions. Among the possible biosignals for man-machine interaction (brain, nerve, and muscle signals), muscle signals, i.e. electromyography (EMG), are the only that allow applications in routine clinical use within a commercially reasonable time horizon. Although the current efforts in myoelectric interfaces are mainly focusing on decoding EMG signals, myoelectric interaction has the unique and little exploited feature of provoking changes in the neural circuits that are active during the interaction, i.e. of artificially inducing brain plasticity. However, current commercially viable myoelecric interfaces do not implement sensory-motor integration (decoding intentions and at the same time providing a sensory feedback to the patient), which conversely is the basis of plasticity of the central nervous system. This limit reflects the gap between academic research and the clinical and commercial needs. Myoelectric interfacing with sensory-motor integration is indeed feasible now if the knowledge from basic neurophysiology research and signal analysis in the academia is transferred to industrial sectors and if the requirements of and testing for clinical and commercial viability are transferred from the industry to academia. With a consortium of internationally regarded European academic teams and industries, we thus propose the implementation of sensory-motor integration into commercially viable myoelectric devices in two key clinical applications: 1) training for the active control of prostheses; and 2) rehabilitation of strok

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Unlocking the Full Potential of Edge AI through In-memory Computing Based on 2D Materials with Extreme Energy Efficiency' (CERBERUS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The introduction of the on-device AI paradigm in edge computing could bring significant benefits and enable a plethora of exciting applications in AR/VR gear, industrial automation devices, drones, 5G/6G base stations or autonomous vehicles. However, AI is well-known to be generally power hungry and edge devices are not able to withstand the computational requirements of emerging AI workloads. Therefore, energy efficiency is closing the door important breakthroughs across industries such as ICT, mobility, healthcare, agri-food, industrial automation, leaving an enormous untapped potential behind. To remedy this, academia and industry have proposed in-memory computing (IMC) and the associated non-Von Neumann architectures as a means to dramatically improve the efficiency of AI processing; yet the promise of the IMC paradigm is limited by non-idealities within and around the IMC tiles. In this light, the CERBERUS project aims to take a radical step forward in the field of IMC by addressing the fundamental efficiency bottlenecks that prevent edge computing stakeholders from unleashing the full potential of this technology. To this end, CERBERUS will employ a three-pillar approach grounded on (i) 2× more efficient memristive devices, (ii) 30% more efficient peripheral circuits also allowing to bypass domain conversions, and (iii) 70% more effective heat dissipation devices to virtually eliminate thermal noise. Thanks to a deeply cross-layer simulation approach integrating models of the developed devices and circuits, our ultimate goal is to show that 3X better energy efficiency can be achieved at the system level for modern and emerging edge AI computing workloads, towards the vision of deploying sizable AI models in virtually any device, even at the extreme edge.

user: Explain how 'Cavity solitons in time-multiplexed resonators' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

A temporal Kerr cavity soliton (CS) is an optical pulse that propagates undistributed in a low-loss passive resonator. As part of its energy periodically escapes the resonator at each roundtrip, it forms a pulse train. Owing to their ultra-high stability compared to the pulses generated by mode-locked lasers, CSs are expected to play a crucial role in the future of atomic clocks, frequency combs, and high-precision metrology. Besides their inherent stability, they exhibit particle-like behavior. In particular, a couple of CSs can interact in the resonator and eventually form a bound state. Depending on the interaction, such coupled states can be more robust than the single-CS state itself. The aim of SITES (Solitons in time-multiplexed resonators) is to study, theoretically and experimentally, how temporal couplings within an optical resonator lead to the emergence of dynamic behaviors and cavity solitons that do not occur otherwise. On the applied side, SITES can give rise to a new kind of ultra-stable pulse train. On the fundamental front, SITES aims to investigate how these couplings between CSs can be leveraged for computational purposes and used to simulate specific crystal lattices. Such synthetic lattice combined with particle-like CSs leads to a fertile ground for the investigation of nonlinear effects in bosonic systems. Despite these strong fundamental and applied reasons, versatile couplings between multiple CSs have not been experimentally explored so far, mainly because the significant losses arising from the couplings prohibit reaching the intriguing nonlinear regimes. The experimental approach of SITES will overcome such a challenge and enables the realization of previously inaccessible coupled CSs.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Conceptualising Intercultural Mediation in the Greek-Roman Antiquity. A multidisciplinary approach' (CIMA).

assistant: **Concept**

Intercultural mediation is a social practice that creates bonds between individuals or groups from different cultural background through the agency of a third party. The agent, or mediator, can be either an individual or a group of people (e.g. an ambassador, a translator, a salesman; immigrants, pilgrims, tourists, and so on) whose activity, often unintentionally, reinforces international relationships and fosters social cohesion especially for what concerns culturally distant and/or hostile groups. The practice exists from ancient times, prompt by various political and economic factors, and the understanding how and why it occurred, and why it succeeded or failed in the past can greatly impact the studies related to intercultural exchange, by amplifying our understanding of social mechanisms that may promote cultural tolerance and manage conflicts. However, current studies related to multicultural coexistence overlook this issue, and the research is further impeded by the lack of a universal theory on mediation or a valid methodology of its study. The CIMA project aims to fill this gap by studying a real-life phenomenon in a historical perspective, in order to enable the use of past sociocultural experiences to address current social issues. Namely, CIMA will examine a series of case studies that emphasize the activity of the ancient Greeks as diplomatic mediators, trading agents and/or transmitters of concepts and ideas between foreign communities (states/tribes), and will develop an adaptable model of analysis of this phenomenon, applicable in various disciplines and fields. Inthis manner, the project will transcend the conventional boundaries between disciplines and open new, interdisciplinary directions for future research. The outputs of the project will be disse

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Boosting Reward-based Attention through VEstibular STimulation' (BRAVEST), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Intrinsically rewarding stimuli strongly favour attentional capture (AC) in humans, this effect being dramatic in a number of addiction disorders. The physiology of this phenomenon is poorly understood, but recent neuroimaging studies point to a role of the Anterior Cingulate Cortex (aCC) in this kind of attentional engagement. A way to act on this circuitry would provide compelling evidence and be a major advance for the cognitive and clinical neuroscience of motivation. Most brain stimulation techniques (i.e. TMS, tDCS) typically do not allow for stimulation of deep brain structures, their effect being limited to superficial areas. In contrast, Vestibular Stimulation (VS), via galvanic or thermal activation of the peripheral organs devoted to balance, have been consistently shown to produce reliable activation of deep structures involved in mood and affective processing, including the aCC. VS are routinely employed in medicine and physiology, but a deeper understanding of their cognitive effects is needed. Here I propose having healthy participants and patients with brain damage and attentional disorders (i.e. Spatial Neglect) to complete simple behavioural tasks assessing the interaction between attention and motivation, while receiving VS. The main objective is to assess whether the modulation of brain activity through VS may modulate the degree of AC, i.e. facilitate the orienting of attention towards rewarding stimuli. Such project could not only greatly advance our knowledge on the neural circuitry underlying the interplay between reward processing and visuospatial attention, but also shed light on the neural underpinnings of the aberrant AC observed in several clinical pathologies, allowing devising novel therapeutic approaches. Beside this main goal, I will rec

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Indigenous Research, Institutionalisation and Neo-Politicisation: A Conjunctural Analysis of Sami Research in Finland' (INREPOSA).

assistant: **Innovation**

INREPOSA combines Cultural and Indigenous studies to study the shifting terrains of research relating to the Sami in Finland.  Western scientific interest on the Sámi - the Indigenous People in Northern Europe - has a long and rich (colonial) history, but the emergence of ""Sámi research"" as an academic field of its own is usually associated with Sámi demands for Indigenous and academic decolonisation. To date, this field has become highly institutionalised across the Nordic states, but at the same time also the hopes, desires and political, economic and cultural interests that are projected on it have been multiplied, in tandem with the Arctic region's growing importance in the eyes of European states, and due to the general revival of Indigenous cultures and identities. The project aims to examine how this conjuncture of institutionalisation and neo-politicisation is shaping the relationships between Sami politics, research and the state, and what are its consequences for research-based policy-making, as well as for Sami research as a critical discipline committed to Indigenous decolonisation. The project is grounded on conjunctural analysis associated with the work of Stuart Hall. In addition, it will test the relevance of Settler Colonial Theory for understanding the Finnish state's policies in the Sami region. The research materials include relevant literatures and research texts, policy documents and statements issued by the Finnish government, Sami political institutions and organisation and other stake-holders, and other textual materials. This material is analysed interpretatively using critical discourse analysis and ethnographic methods. The project is conducted as part of the international research group ""Social Dimensions of Sami Research"" at the Tromso

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Unraveling The Immune Landscape In Uveal Melanoma' (UTILIUM) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Cancer Immunotherapy is the latest breakthrough in the fight against cancer, especially with the successes of checkpoint inhibitors. However, numerous tumors appear non-responsive, including uveal melanoma (UM) despite its shared cellular origin with cutaneous melanoma. In this project, I propose to study the immune landscape of UM and explore strategies to overcome mechanisms detrimental to the antitumor immune response. I will employ highly innovative technologies from the fields of genomics, immunology and bioinformatics to explore the tumor microenvironment. Gene expression profiles of UM metastases and neoantigen presentation will be obtained by RNA sequencing. The functional expression of multiple immune markers will be analyzed by cutting-edge multispectral immunohistochemistry to determine immune cell subset presence in a qualitative and quantitative manner. The obtained knowledge will subsequently be used to test and improve reactivity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes in an autologous model. These experiments require optimal expansion of tumor-infiltrating T cells, which is highly developed at the laboratory of prof. Svane at the Center for Cancer Immune Therapy at the Herlev Hospital in Copenhagen, Denmark. I expect that this project will provide a more complete overview of the immune landscape of UM and reveal important mechanisms underlying immune suppression in UM. The findings of this project could pave the way to the clinical development of successful immunotherapeutic strategies for the treatment of UM and potentially other tumor types resistant to immune checkpoint inhibitors. Finally, this project will improve my laboratory and leadership skills, greatly improving my chances of achieving the next goal in my career: a permanent position as an Medical O
