user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Precision diagnostics using electrogating of liquids in capillary-driven microfluidics' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The field of microfluidics is rapidly expanding and so is the area of point-of-care (POC) diagnostics. Despite numerous advances, there are still many important needs that are unmet and therefore limit deployment of microfluidics for high-performance POC applications. e-Gates is thoroughly aligned with those needs and trends in academic and industrial research in Europe. This project introduces the “electrogating” concept as a very innovative mechanism to perform flow-control operations of continuous streams of liquids in capillary channels by means of electronic actuation. A microfluidic chip having electrogates can be controlled with a remote control system via smartphone connectivity, thereby enabling flexibility in controlling assay conditions, optimization of tests, and implementation of internal checkpoints to gain in reliability. The strategic combination of expertise in biosciences and micro-nanotechnology for developing microfluidics, makes e-Gates an outstanding opportunity for the host institution to take advantage of the solid scientific background from the applicant, with the aim of reinforcing its innovative capacity and speed-up R&D and commercialization plans. Importantly, the applicant will acquire knowledge and experience in a very exciting area, expanding her previous competences and skills on basic research in physics to applied, multidisciplinary research by working at IBM Research - Zurich. Through e-gates, the applicant will strengthen professional maturity with a prospective career development either in academia, industry or as an entrepreneur. The results, dissemination and visualization of the action will contribute to the excellence and attractiveness of European research programs around microfluidics technology, fostering industry-academy all

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Techniques and materials for the measurement of dc and ac conductivity of non-ferrous metals and alloys (CONDUCTIVITY)' in the context of a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Conductivity measurements are used as an inspection method for alloys used in aircraft manufacture. The relationship between the mechanical hardness and the conductivity of alloys is well known. Many standards are traceable through measurements at DC but are used in industry around 60kHz. This would be satisfactory if the materials had uniform properties throughout their thickness.Problem 1 is there is no uniformity in the measurement results across Europe.Problem 2 is the present range of values is not wide enough and the homogeneity is not good enough, hampering the translation of measurements at DC to 60 kHz. Problem 3 is there may be a new and promising method which is not developed at present and is thus not available for industrial use. The objectives address these problems and will result in improved and more widely available measurement techniques, and knowledge of a new material which may provide improved standards.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Solar energy assisted water vapour compression heat pump system for single family housing heating', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

This proposal is prepared with the help of an Exploratory Award including a com bined Research Feasibility Study and initial EC-market potential investigation. The scientific & technical objectives embrace development of a solar energy assisted heat pump system able to convert into air-condition operation using w ater as both primary and secondary refrigerant. Compared to traditional plants using artificial refrigerants, implementation of water as refrigerant in a heat pump cycle represents a major innovative step as regards reduction of the dire ct an indirect impacts on the global environment The direct environmental be nefits relate the use of water, a non-ODP and non-GWP substance as the only flu id in the system showing conformity with decisions made at the recently held UN Convention Meeting in Kyoto, Japan. The indirect environmental benefits der ives from an improvement of the heat pump COP of approx. 30% compared to existi ng systems. Used in the intended system configuration, a 60% reduction of the a nnual energy consumption and CO2-emmision for heating and domestic hot water pr oduction in North European single family housing is expected. With a calcula ted 2002-potential of 1 mio. heat pump systems inside the EC, this means an ann ual energy cost saving potential of 420 MECU on an European scale. Research is required to combine the technologies of water vapour compression and solar e nergy heating systems developing the optimum design of the complete plant conce pt. This includes among other things research and development of the water vapo ur compression cycle, an all year operating full roof integrated solar collecto r using pure single phase water as coolant and a soil storage system with abili ty acting as air-condition condenser as well.

user: Describe how 'Social quality and the changing relationships between work, care and welfare in Europe' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The proposed research project explores the relationships between, at the, macro level structural changes labour market, demography and welfare and economic policies and at the micro level changes in individual orientations to work and care. At the macro level we are concerned to measure the quality of society and at the micro level the quality of life and by articulating them assessing Social Quality in Europe.We would propose to go beyond the existing literature on individual attitudes and welfare regimes to integrate perspectives of gender and care into an analysis that encompasses Europe as a whole, including New Member States. In order to do so we would develop an analytical framework that takes into account the orientation, actions, capabilities and satisfaction of actors with the work and care systems in constructing a work-life balance. The combining of objective and subjective, macro and micro perspectives can best be synthesised under the model of 'Social Quality'. The project would look at the different actors involved in balancing work and care: the household, individuals and the state. The work would be based on the analysis of relevant indicators from existing sources but would be supplemented by qualitative interviews from five countries.The project would introduce methodological as well as theoretical innovations in the combination of policy analysis, qualitative and quantitative research to understand models of change and hence the development of different European Social Models. Finally, it would contribute to key European issues, providing a better understanding of the impact of social policies on work and care, the effects of the competing demands of work and care on fertility decisions and the consequences of flexibility and working times on the orga

assistant: **Impact**

The MuWaS project aims to the deve!opment of advanced sensor techniques for fast, non contact, fullfield measurement of deformation gradients and strains. The application of these techniques will lead to an improved material characterization and to quick and reliable optimization of design and structures of industrial components. This will make quality measurable", increase the integrity of structures and gain in optimized safety of industrial products. The MuWaS project is based on an EC funded feasibility award. In continuation of this study the topic of this proposal will be concentrated on the transfer of shearographic techniques into industrial engineering. An actual demand arises from automotive, energy and material testing industries. The object under investigation will be simultaneously illuminated by multiple laser wavelengths and the images recorded with a colour CCD camera. This enables the substitution of phase shift procedures and simultaneous 3D measurement. Numerical data analysis and mathematical modelling is focused on an improved material characterization by the determination of the sample s response on different loads. An assessment of reliability and residual lifetime of industrial components, an approximation of relevant parameters for production control and quality rating ought to be accessible. A MuWaS measuring system will be designed, protyped and tested in different industrial areas: automotive applications (test on the road), energy industries (off shore structures), material testing. "

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Mapping migration and adaptation in genomes' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

There is increasing evidence that gene flow between populations adapted to different environments is widespread in nature. Understanding this interplay of adaptation and migration at the genomic level is a fundamental goal of evolutionary biology, with wide applications in situations where these two forces operate, e.g. pesticide resistance or species invasion. Yet, this goal remains largely elusive, mainly because genetic signatures of local adaptation are confounded by other evolutionary processes, such as past demography, the removal of deleterious mutations and recombination. I will address this by integrating new computational methods with new data from experimental evolution and field populations. First, I will develop a method to map gene flow along the genome to find regions under divergent selection, taking the challenging step of modelling recombination and background selection. I will then apply it to characterize the spread of pesticide resistance in field populations of a major crop pest, Tetranychus urticae (spider mite). Due to their small genome (90Mb) and haplodidploidy, we have the unique opportunity to get phased genomes from haploid males. Third, by training-through-research, I will follow mites (and their genomes) evolving under controlled selection regimes in the laboratory (with vs without pesticide), varying migration rates. Combining my background on population genomics with the PI’s knowledge in spider-mite evolutionary ecology and the excellent conditions for experimental evolution at the host institute, we will move the field towards a comprehensive characterization of the genomics of adaptation in face of gene flow. The new method will be of general application to address fundamental questions on speciation and ecology, while providing a tra

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Role of the Cav2.3 Voltage-gated Calcium Channel Subunit in Presynaptic Metaplasticity, and Hippocampal-dependent Learning and Memory' (METAPLASTICITY), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

There have been considerable advances in our knowledge of the mechanisms underlying NMDAR-dependent LTP and LTD. Less attention has been focused on a particularly intriguing finding: The capacity of synapses for plastic changes is itself plastic, that is, it is subject to considerable activity-dependent modulation.This higher-order plasticity, termed 'metaplasticity', may be crucial for maintaining plastic synapses within a dynamic functional range. It also provides an additional layer of complexity for synaptic integration of temporally spaced episodes of synaptic activity.Such metaplasticity has been observed experimentally as an inhibition of LTP or change in the frequency threshold between LTP and LTD by prior activation of NMDARs, or as a facilitation of LTP following either the activation of metabotropic glutamate receptors or the alteration of a behavioural state.Despite its functional importance, metaplasticity has been studied exclusively at synapses that require postsynaptic activation of NMDAR s for LTP and LTD induction, such as the Schaffer collateral-CA1 synapse within the hippocampus.In contrast, LTP induction at the hippocampal mossy fiber-CA3 synapse, as well as at a number of other synapses, is thought to rely mainly on presynaptic mechanisms Accordingly, the experiments in the current proposal will utilize the mossy fiber-CA3 synapse as a model to study metaplasticity of presynaptic LTP and LTD.We plan to study the following four phenomena:- priming-induced metaplasticity at the mossy-fiber CA3 synapse,- the Ca2+ influx pathways mediating presynaptic metaplasticity,- the signal transduction mechanisms underlying presynaptic metaplasticity, and- he role of metaplasticity in spatial learning and memory.These lines of research should clarify the mechanis

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Interphase characterization and study of structure-property relations of fibre-reinforced polymers' to be submitted under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

INTERPHASE NETWORK OVERVIEW The aim of this thematic network is to facilitate exchange, integration and creation of know-how through partner cooperation on industrially relevant research for the development of new light weight composite materials in order to contribute to a competitive 'car of tomorrow' based on ongoing research in the cooperating industries, universities and research centers. The technical objective of this proposal is to develop new and rational means of characterizing 'interphases' of polymer matrix and reinforcing fibres in real composites of various fibre architectures and matrix properties. The goal is to find structure-property relations which can be used to produce tailor-made composite materials. The deliverables will be proper bases for improvement of composite properties caused by better fibre-matrix interaction. Thus, there is a strong need of the automotive industry for low cost composites having higher mechanical performances. Various micromechanical (fibre fragmentation, pull-out, microindentation, microdebond) and macromechanical (tensile, bending, shear, impact, dynamic loading) test methods are used to determine 'characteristics' of fibre-matrix interaction. The comprehensive experimental investigations will provide input to computational mechanics activities aimed at modeling failure mechanisms and interpreting causes of, and driving forces for, fibre-matrix interaction. The cooperation proposed includes research groups dealing with micro- and macro-mechanical test methods with the aim of developing rational ways of characterizing the structureproperty relations of defined polymer composite systems and therefore improving the composite properties. The network objective is to establish a critical mass of European research scientists an

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Hybrid thermoplastic composites for recyclable and high performance head protection systems (PRO-HEAD)' (PRO-HEAD) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The public feeling towards the need of effective safety or protection systems is progressively increasing in several sectors. Regulations have made mandatory the use of helmet for motorcyclists and for workers operating in dangerous environment (e.g. build ing construction site), while new regulations are likely to be introduced to make mandatory the helmet in other fields (e.g. cycling, skiing, skating...). Statistics proved that the helmet significantly reduces the risk of death in accidents related to he ad injuries but the number of victims in all fields is still impressive. The European producers of helmets are mainly SMEs which have to face a strong competition from low labour cost countries. There is therefore the strong need to introduce into the ma rket innovative products characterised by higher performances at a competitive price. The aim of the project is to develop a novel fully recyclable hybrid thermoplastic composite material for head protection devices, based on novel all-thermoplastic compo sites with embedded superelastic fabrics. The introduction of the new materials and the related manufacturing techniques and tools, together with the results of the demonstration activities will have a direct impact to the product innovation and will give new impulse to the introduction of new concepts and standards for safety, recyclability and product regeneration in sectors very important for the safety of the citizens. The main innovation of the project is the novel recyclable thermoplastic hybrid comp osite material for head protection systems. To achieve this objective the following innovations must be pursued: a novel all-thermoplastic commingled fabric for rapid moulding and easy recycling; a novel single stage compression moulding process; a nove l superela
