user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Social transformations of marine fisheries'.

assistant: **Concept**

SOCIALSHIFT investigates how fisheries can respond successfully to environmental and social challenges. Due to pressing local and global issues, fisheries are undergoing profound and long-lasting changes. These so-called transformations are hard to predict, difficult to reverse, and can have far-reaching impacts on fish stocks, ecosystems, economic outcomes, and social wellbeing. However, social transformations remain largely unexplored in the marine realm. Why are some fisheries capable of going through transformations with positive, desirable effects while others collapse or take an undesirable route? SOCIALSHIFT reunites studies from different disciplines in a global database to identify the drivers and inhibiting and enabling conditions for social transformations of marine fisheries. We combine this structural perspective with biographical interviews to explore what social transformations mean to individual people in marine fisheries and how their actions and mental processes shape these transformations and link to ecological factors. From  case studies, we aim to develop a generalizable methods to systematically assess individual life histories and scale up qualitative approaches to make social aspects more accessible to fisheries management. Based on that, we identify tipping points and create scenarios to develop together with stakeholders inspirational visions for the future and resilient management strategies. The results will advance the field of fisheries science, raise awareness of social issues in fisheries, contribute to the understanding of complex systems, and provide guidance to decision-makers on how to steer successful transformations into resilient trajectories.

user: Describe how 'Biobased self-functionalised self-reinforced composite materials based on high performance nanofibrillar PLA fibres' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

BIO4SELF aims at fully biobased self-reinforced polymer composites (SRPC). To produce the SRPCs two polylactic acid (PLA) grades are required: a low melting temperature (Tm) one to form the matrix and an ultra high stiffness and high Tm one to form the reinforcing fibres. To reach unprecedented stiffness in the reinforcing PLA fibres, we will combine PLA with bio-LCP (liquid crystalline polymer) for nanofibril formation. Further, we will increase the temperature resistance of PLA and improve its durability. This way, BIO4SELF will exploit recent progress in PLA fibre technology. We will add inherent self-functionalization via photocatalytic fibres (self-cleaning properties), tailored microcapsules (self-healing properties) and deformation detecting fibres (self-sensing).Prototype composite parts for luggage, automotive and home appliances will be demonstrators to illustrate the much broader range of industrial applications, e.g. furniture, construction and sports goods. Our developments will enable to use biobased composites for high end applications, thus contributing to using sustainable and renewable raw materials. Being able to produce, process and sell these novel SRPCs and related composite intermediates will be a clear competitive advantage. First estimates predict a market of at least 35 kton/year, corresponding to ca. 165 M€, within 5 years. Using the PLA SRPCs, BIO4SELF will demonstrate the first fully biobased suitcase, which partner SAMSONITE intends to commercialise to renew its top selling high end line (currently based on self-reinforced polypropylene).BIO4SELF is a well balanced mix of end-users (large enterprises to maximise impact), technology providers (mainly R&D driven SMEs), R&D actors (RTDs and universities) and innovation support (specialised SME

user: Draft an impact statement for 'High performance hydraulic pump for off road mobile equipment', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Today’s eco-conscious landscape is creating ever-increasing demands on hydraulics to transition to more efficient and quieter solutions with smaller carbon footprint. Mobile hydraulic original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) need solutions to ensure their mobile equipment comply with the stricter EU stage V emission mandate, effective from 2019. Emission reduction systems may be needed which, however, will increase the overall weight of the hydraulic vehicle, resulting in higher fuel consumption. We, at Hansa TMP, with global presence in 64 countries and manufacturers of electro-hydraulic components and systems for mobile and industrial machinery, realised axial piston hydraulic technology as vital for green, efficient mobile equipment and a key development relevant for advancing the emerging electric hydraulic mobile equipment industry. The limitations of current axial piston pumps are higher energy consumption, lack of hydraulics-electronics interconnectivity and low life span. In response, we have developed TPV2500, a compact axial hydraulic piston pump which offers 10% higher energy efficiency, better reliability, efficient automotive control, 100 bars higher working pressure and 5% reduction in maintenance time. The growing agriculture and construction sectors, which account for 75% of all the mobile off-highway market segment sales, are contributing substantially to the axial piston hydraulic pumps market, projected to grow to €1.90Bn in 2025 at a 4.3% CAGR. In Phase 1, we plan to carry out technical and commercial validation and consolidate our commercialisation strategy. These activities will supplement €0.5M worth of work already invested in the project. We expect +€16.4M revenues after 5 years of exploitation of the technology. The European hydraulic vehicles o

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fifth Framework proposal for the project 'Enhancement of co-operation between community and nationally supported research in the maritime industries (ENCONA)'.

assistant: **Objectives**

It is the objective of this accompanying measure to identify the nature and structure of national RTD-programmes for the maritime industries in member states, analyse their target areas and formulate examples for test cases for maritime industry oriented RTD co-operation scenes between national and Eu funded research. This will in certain areas reveal situations where due to national or industry interests a close co-operation seems not to be advisable. Nevertheless also such information is essential in harmonizing the different programs and their levels of action. In analysing the work done at national levels and comparing it with EU-work it may also indicate secondary barriers (language, culture) that once known can be than properly addressed and eliminated.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Repeat protein Function Refinement, Annotation and Classification of Topologies'.

assistant: **Concept**

The REFRACT proposal answers the RISE call, aiming at the promotion of an international and interdisciplinary collaboration on tandem repeat proteins (TRPs) through the sharing of knowledge and expertise between partners via staff exchanges. REFRACT is an international consortium aiming to extend our knowledge on the mechanism of TRP function and evolution, establishing a common classification and best practices. Starting from available state of the art computational tools and databases, which have been mostly developed by REFRACT participants, it aims drive a new level of TRP characterization leveraging the complementary expertise of 7 EU MS and 9 TC institutions in Latin America, with the latter providing useful complementary expertises. This aim will be achieved by the following steps:Benchmarking different existing methods and defining their use-cases;Coordinating the necessary next steps to analyze TRP roles in biological pathways and organism evolution; Providing a detailed description of their mechanism of function, related to their structural properties, that can be of great importance in TRP-related medical research and biotechnological applications;Building a unified and commonly accepted TRP classification from sequence and structure as well as characterizing the relationship between the two.The REFRACT implementation will take advantage of the different expertises, supporting them by a combination of research-centered, training and dissemination activities. The secondment program is designed so that all the participating institutions will be actively involved not only in the production of scientific outcomes, but also be empowered with the responsibility of planning, monitoring and discussing project advancement.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Multi-hazard Infrastructure Risk Assessment for Climate Adaptation' (MIRACA) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Europe’s critical infrastructure (CI) is at risk of failure due to natural hazards and rapid climate change, which can lead to major physical and economic damages. Existing methods for climate risk analysis are not tailored to the complexities of CI: they do not properly account for systems interdependencies, while also still containing key data gaps. Public authorities urgently need tools to pinpoint the risk-prone areas and to develop affordable adaptation strategies to enhance CI resilience.The mission of the Multi-hazard Infrastructure Risk Assessment for Climate Adaptation (MIRACA) project is to catalyse and empower the implementation of adaptation measures for CI throughout Europe.The MIRACA Consortium will develop an evidence-based decision-support toolkit, consisting of (i) a guidance on technical and economic appraisal of adaptation strategies, (ii) a technical decision-support workbench and (iii) an online interactive viewer. These will be based on a multi-hazard climate risk assessment framework that employs advanced new methods of data acquisition, which will fill critical gaps in knowledge of the vulnerability and costs of CI. New model capabilities will be developed to fully appraise the benefits for people and businesses of climate-resilient infrastructure systems. We will demonstrate, validate, and promote the uptake of MIRACA’s research and innovation through five use cases. They cover a variety of locations, infrastructure types and natural hazards, and will allow public authorities and CI managers to test the effectiveness of adaptation solutions and to identify robust adaptation strategies. To propel transformative change, our methodologies will be made available through open-access datasets, model codes and online interactive visualisations. The too

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'High resolution temporal and spatial study of the benthic biology and geochemistry of a north-eastern Atlantic abyssal locality' to be submitted under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Objective: To identify, quantify and model the principal processes within the abyssal benthic boundary layer which affect the permanent sedimentary record of the incoming chemical flux. Approach: An intensive multi-disciplinary (geochemical, biochemical, physical and biological) study of a highly seasonal abyssal locality in the NE Atlantic over one complete annual cycle. The aims will be to: 1. Quantify and characterise the incoming vertical flux of organic and inorgani matter and its resuspension in the near-bottom layers (by sediment traps, transmissometers and midwater cameras). 2. Measure the rate of its incorporation into the sediment column and the fluxes across the sediment-water interface (by in situ landers, sediment column chemical analysis and sediment profile imaging). 3. Study the interaction between the incoming signal and the benthic biota, including bioturbation (by conventional sampling and analysis and in situ manipulation/experimentation). 4. Incorporate the resulting data into predictive models. European dimension: Logistically, technically and intellectually, this programme could not be achieved by any single European nation alone. The results will be of value to all nations, both in relation to palaeoceanographic interpretation of the sediment record and to the possible use of the deep-sea floor as a repository for waste or as a source of raw materials.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Influence of arsenate adsorption onto Fe- and Al hydroxide mineral surfaces on microbial arsenate reduction rates'.

assistant: **Concept**

Due to its chronic toxicity, arsenic (As) in drinking water poses a serious thread to millions of people worldwide. In most cases, As release is thought to result from microbial AsV reduction coupled to surface chemical interactions in the sediments. However, the interdependence of chemical reactions at the mineral-water interface and microbial AsV reduction processes and the biogeochemical conditions leading to As release in sediments are not well understood. This study aims at elucidating the influence of As adsorption reactions on Fe- and Al-hydroxides on the reduction rates of AsV using incubation studies. Factors to be studied include surface loading of AsV, competitive sorption of As, PO4, and SO4, the interaction of As-reducing and Fe-reducing bacteria, and the transferability of results to the complex soil environment. The knowledge generated in this study provides new insight into an important environmental process and is needed for the implementation of powerful strategies to cope with the problem o f large-scale As release from sediments into water worldwide.

user: Explain how 'Spatial-economic-ecological model for the assessment of sustainability policies of Russia' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

The objective of the study is to develop and implement for Russia an integrated spatial-economic-ecological modelling approach, which represents the state-of-the-art in different areas of economic, transport, resource-use and environmental modelling, and can be used to assist policy makers in their choice of medium and long-term sustainability policies.   This implies the following interrelated aims: develop modelling approach, which represents the state-of-the-art in impact assessment modelling and corresponds the complexity of the sustainability issue;  build consistent database necessary for the implementation of the developed approach for Russia; construct the spatial-economic-ecological model for Russia; develop a set of sustainability indicators associated with the model, which allows for quantification of social, economic and environmental effects of sustainability policies; use the model to assess the effects of a set of important sustainability policy measures in order to demonstrate the operation ability and reliability of the developed modelling approach.  The SUST-RUS modelling approach will provide Russian and international community with the sound scientific support for formulating sustainability policies, which is characterized by a balanced integration between social, economic and environmental policy objectives. The use of the SUST-RUS approach will assist the implementation of the EU strategy for sustainable development in Russia as well as an efficient incorporation of the sustainability goals into the existing Russian policy tools on regional and federal levels. The SUST-RUS modelling approach represents the state-of-the-art in many different areas of knowledge and, hence, will be superior to other models available for Russia.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Staphylococcus aureus biofilm dynamics and innate immunity' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

During my postdoc at a marine biotechnology lab in Newcastle I experienced that bacteria growing in shakeflasks in the lab and bacteria in natural biofilms behave very differently. For instance, the global gene expression and production of secreted proteins is very different between these modes of growth. I would like to bring the knowledge and skills acquired there to a higher level by studying the interaction between a clinically relevant biofilm and host organism. To achieve this, I will study the dynamics of Staphylococcus aureus biofilms in interaction with the human innate immune system in the laboratory of Prof. van Strijp in Utrecht. S. aureus is a Gram-positive coccus that causes life threatening diseases and has become resistant against most antibiotics (MRSA). Our innate immune system is crucial in fighting S. aureus infections. Strikingly, S. aureus evades this defence line by production of small secreted proteins that repress this immune system. In many infections, S. aureus’ growth mode is generally considered to be biofilm-like. Using a novel, biofilm centred approach I will study the interaction between the innate immune system and S. aureus. By comparing planktonic growth with several biofilm stages using proteomic analysis, I will screen for novel immune evasion molecules that are expressed specifically during the biofilm mode of growth of S. aureus. The identified proteins will be studied further using deletion mutants in S. aureus and the proteins will be overexpressed in heterologous hosts, such as E. coli or B. subtilis. Using the mutant strains and the overproduced proteins, the specific interactions of these novel proteins with the innate immune system will be examined, both in vitro and in vivo. The identified molecules will be highly interestin
