user: Describe how 'TRaining in Secure and PrivAcy-preserving biometricS' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Biometrics recognition technology has revolutionised traditional person recognition technologies which rely on tokens or passwords. Whereas the latter can be lost, stolen, or easily forgotten, biometrics technology relies on biological and/or behavioural traits to infer identity. A soaring proliferation of cloud applications calls for enhanced security protection for distributed person authentication using biometrics, whereas the new European general data protection regulation (GDPR) demands stringent provisions for privacy preservation. Unfortunately, concerns regarding security and privacy vulnerabilities, coupled with a lack of sufficient expertise to tackle them, present barriers to European competitiveness. Europe needs a new community of biometrics researchers capable of innovating the next generation of biometrics technology designed to protect security and preserve privacy simultaneously. The TReSPAsS-ETN project will deliver security protection through generalised PAD capabilities, deliver privacy preservation through computationally feasible encryption solutions and deploy these new technologies to commercial-grade systems in full compliance with the new European GDPR legislation. The project will enhance European research leadership and competitiveness and will help to sustain the flourishing biometrics market. The comprehensive TReSPAsS-ETN Marie Skłodowska-Curie Early Training Network will couple specific technical and transferable skills training including entrepreneurship, innovation, creativity, management and communications with secondments to industry. TReSPAsS-ETN will produce a cohort of early stage researchers equipped with the necessary multidisciplinary skill set and capacity to innovate the next generation of secure and privacy preserving biometr

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'The genetic control of brain development' (1998-2002), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Primary regional organisation of the vertebrate brain is specified by gene cascades, which reactivated during early embryogenesis. Identities of different brain regions are partly defined by gene families having similar functions in Drosophilae and vertebrates, indicating regulatory mechanisms that are strongly conserved in evolution. Despite fragmentary knowledge about different aspects of early neural development, there is not yet an integrated picture of the regulatory cascades which set-up the primary organisation of the brain. This is a central unsolved problem in the neurosciences. The proposed programme coordinates the complementary expertises of six specialist groups to elucidate mechanisms underlying development of different brain regions and determine how their construction is coordinated. We expect that these investigations will provide a solid basis for understanding how the brain is built and how its organisation is disturbed by genetic disease.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Radiation exposures at an early age: impact of genotype on breast cancer risk' (2002-2006).

assistant: **Concept**

The relative risks of breast cancer for women exposed to external radiation in childhood, adolescence and early reproductive years are among the highest known radiation related risks for any cancer type. A number of genes increase breast cancer susceptibility and are known to be involved in detection and repair of radiation-induced DNA damage. DNA repair mechanisms play an important role in the cellular response to radiation exposure and hence on the risk of radiation induced cancer. Mutations or polymorphisms in these genes may therefore render cells more sensitive to radiation-induced cancer. The overall objective of the current contract is to conduct an epidemiological study designed to examine the role of low dose radiation exposure in the aetiology of breast cancer in young women and study its possible interaction with genetic susceptibility. A supplementary objective will be to study the possible modifying effects of other other risk factors for breast cancer, including reproductive factors and cancer therapies other than radiation. Because of the low prevalence of mutation carriers and because of the generally low levels of ionising radiation exposure in the general population, population-based studies of breast cancer risk are unlikely to be informative for this purpose. The current project therefore focuses on the conduct of complementary multi-national nested case-control studies of breast cancer in different populations chosen on the basis of high prevalence of radiation exposure and/or high prevalence of known mutations in susceptibility genes to maximize the power to study the effects of radiation exposure on the risk of breast cancer and its interaction with relatively rare genetic mutations. Overall, it is estimated that approximately 1000 cases of breast

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'The first effective oil and water pre-separator, enabling clean water release and fuel efficiency onboard ships'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Oily water, generated by ships during operation, is accumulated in bilge wells. As this water is highly polluted, it must be purified using oily water separator (OWS) filtration systems prior to discharge overboard. The MARPOL 73/78 convention demands that no more than 15 ppm of oil particulates in water can be present upon discharge. Non-compliance is heavily fined, yet common, due to the inefficiencies and high costs of current OWS methods. These methods rely on frequent and expensive filter replacement, chemical- and maintenance-heavy pre-separation and in many cases collection of the oily water for fuel-intensive transport to shore refineries. At the same time high (50-70%) water content is accumulated in the oil collection tanks (i.e. sludge tanks). This sludge becomes un-reusable onboard the ship unless further energy-intensive treatment is employed to evaporate the contained water. Watery sludge can alternatively also be transported to shore for processing, which is once again fuel-inefficient and also incurs treatment fees. This is the perfect opportunity for GreenArc 500, the first and only pre-separator system, which can separate oil from bilge water with 99% efficiency. It is easily integrated into existing OWS systems and guarantees that the 15 ppm oil in water particulate limit is met. Our solution is 70-80% cheaper than current market-available pre-separators and 39% cheaper than simply replacing OWS filters, not to mention 90% savings on maintenance costs. This means that the customers’ initial investment in GreenArc 500 will be paid back in less than 1 year. What’s more, GreenArc 500 is already patented and certified by DNV GL as compliant with MARPOL 73/78 regulations and operating on a pilot scale on 18 ships. GreenArc 500 will disrupt the way bilge wa

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Human Computer Confluence Research in Action' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

HCC, Human-Computer Confluence, is an ambitious research program studying how the emerging symbiotic relation between humans and computing devices can enable radically new forms of sensing, perception, interaction, and understanding. The horizontal character of HCC makes it a fascinating and fertile interdisciplinary field, but it can also compromise its growth, with researchers scattered across disciplines and groups worldwide. A coordination activity promoting discipline connect, identity building and integration while defining future research, education and policy directions is needed at the regional, national, European and international level. The goals of HC2 are: 1) to stimulate, structure and support the research community, promoting identity building, 2) to consolidate research agendas with special attention to the interdisciplinary aspects of HCC, producing useful visions and roadmaps to support future research 3) enhance the Public Understanding of HCC and foster the early contact of researchers with high-tech SMEs and other industry players 4) establish guidelines for the definition of new educational curricula to prepare the next generation of HCC researchers.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Novel Mobile Sonification Process for Local Valorisation of Lignocellulosic (Forest) Materials to produce Valuable Chemicals' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The concept of the Lignocellulosic BioRefinery (LCBR) is gaining ground in the EU, as a way to increase the value obtained from wood waste such as sawdust and chippings, from €50/tonne to potentially as much as €500/tonne.  To do this, the LCBR would cleanly fractionate the three components – cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin – without degrading them.  (Paper and bioethanol “refineries” create good cellulose at the expense of losing the value of the other two components through harsh reaction conditions). The absence of a non-degrading version of this process step has been quoted as a major barrier to commercialisation at the moment.Our idea is to develop a novel ultrasonically-enhanced separation process that does not require high temperatures or pressures, and is capable of producing pure wood fractions much faster than traditional digestion processes.  The consortium consists of 3 SME-AGs who represent the forest operators that will benefit from the technology, and provide direct routes to market for the materials produced.  They will train their member forestry SMEs in the operation of the new process, the strategic capacity planning for deployment to give best economy, and forging the relationships with the new supply chains of customers.  The SME technology providers in the consortium will develop the technology into a prototype that demonstrated the effectiveness of the process and provides training opportunities for forest operators.The ultrasonic process technology will be scalable  for use by single SME foresters, up to local, municipal and wider scale use.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Trans-national co-operation among NCPs for International Cooperation' (2007-2013) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

INCONTACT-one world aims at stimulating closer cooperation among INCO NCPs. Within the framework of this closer cooperation, INCO NCPs/NIPs will work together to effect a substantial improvement in the overall quality of NCP services in the field of International Cooperation. The positive effect of these efforts will not be limited to the NCP network alone but the international research community will ultimately benefit from the heightened level of service offered by the network. In this direction INCONTACT-one world is suggesting practical tools to achieve objectives: - Annual INCO NCP conferences giving the opportunity for personal communication, NCP training, discussion of global science policy issues, and presentation of research capacities from ICPC countries. -INCO-Wiki, the Online Encyclopaedia on International Cooperation will move to a step further offering more complete practical information to the INCO NCPs/NIPs, aiming to become a live tool for the transfer of knowledge and best practices on International Cooperation. It will also act as a tool for publishing information and as a discussion platform. -Special trainings for the professional development of the NCPs will be offered. -A two-way communication channel with all the thematic NCPs will be set for facilitating the information flow on specific aspects of International Cooperation. -Free communication and networking tools will be studied and suggested for use. -A global dialogue on Science policy will be initiated aiming to provide sound proposals to the EC. -Local FP7 information events will be organised around the globe aiming to increase awareness on FP opportunities. -An NCP support mechanism will be established to provide initial support to newly assigned INCO NCPs.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'MRI System Development Correcting Motion Artifacts for Cardiac and Brain Diagnostic Applications' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

A major disadvantage in MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) is that high quality images require long scan periods compared with the periods of physiologic motions (respiration, cardiac motion, blood flow, patient's restlessness). These long periods cause artifacts in the reconstructed images that can prevent accurate diagnosis. Thus, motion effects are the most important limitations in MRI. The proposed project addresses the problem of motion artifacts correction in MR brain and cardiac imaging. Its development objectives on MRI system technology are:(a) correct motion artifacts that severely affect Brain and Cardiac MRI applications(b) improve diagnostic procedures by exploiting the proposed reconstruction process(c) integrate the proposed developments with existing health information systems(d) provide a concept demonstration of proposed developments.OBJECTIVES- Develop MRI systems for Brain and Cardiac medical applications;- improve diagnostic procedures;- integrate project with the existing health information systems;- concept demonstration.DESCRIPTION OF WORKImage reconstruction of Neurofunctional and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Data that can be adaptively corrected for motion artifacts will have tremendous impact on early diagnosis of acute stroke and cardiac diseases. Stroke and heart problems are leading causes of death in the western world and - even more important - is the primary cause of serious disability with tremendous social cost involved. Since this decade has shown the potential of MRI to establish early differential diagnosis in the acute stroke situation, and heart diseases, the diagnostic progress has been accompanied by an enormous progress in therapeutic possibilities over the recent two years. However, head motion of typically uncooperative patients

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Signalling pathways involved in neurodegeneration in the striatum'.

assistant: **Objectives**

To analyse cellular and molecular events leading to apoptosis in striatal neurones in culture and in striatal slices in response to a glutamate-induced rise of intracellular Ca2+ combined (or not) with a mitochondrial chain toxin treatment.To determine the adaptive changes linked to the activation of cortical afferents in physiological and pathological conditions on cortico-striatal slices.To characterise the morphological, cytochemical, neurochemical, and electrophysiological changes in an in vivo model of striatal neurone degeneration.To define the organisational principles of the cortico-striatal projections to correlate the selective susceptibility of striatal neurones to degenerative processes.The aim of the present project is to analyse in experimental models fundamental mechanisms leading to apoptosis of neurones in the striatum which are selectively affected in an inherited neurological disorder: Huntington's disease (HD). The selective degeneration of striatal neurones in HD will be reproduced by combining raise of intracellular levels of Ca (by increasing excitatory transmission) and failure of mitochondrial chain metabolism (with the inhibitor 3-nitropropionic acid, 3-NP). Cellular and molecular events underlying the progressive processes of apoptosis will be examined first in primary cultures of rat striatal neurones. We will test the hypothesis that the proliferative phase that occurs in the very early stages of HD is associated with the activation of extracellular signal regulated kinase (ERK), a MAP kinase which has been described to play a role in proliferation and differentiation of cells. We will also analyse the degenerative phase that leads to apoptosis, and the activation of two other MAP kinase pathways implicated in adaptive response of cells to e

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Innovative chemical analysis of solids : development of instrumental methodologies.' (1998-2002) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Applications are invited for post-graduate fellowships of duration 6-12 months in the Micro- and Trace Analysis Center (MiTAC) at the Department of Chemistry, UIA campus, University of Antwerp (Belgium). MiTAC is a multidisciplinary research institute that aims at the development of new instrumental analytical techniques for the advanced chemical analysis of solids to be applied in the research and development of new materials. The core activities are in the fields of(1) mass spectrometry with laser micro beam ionization and primary ion beams under static conditions for the local analysis of organic and inorganic analytes at the microscopic, mesoscopic and nano-scale by means of molecular information,(2) X -ray micro beam and electron probe analysis for non-destructive trace-level element quantification and solid state speciation and(3) chemo metrics for automation and data processing. MiTAC has a uniquely integrated research organization with continuous feedback and interaction between in-house instrumental development, fundamental studies (e.g. interaction beam-solid, ion formation), methodological research, chemo metrics and applications (often in collaboration with industry and other academic teams). This provides students with a stimulating environment covering the many aspects of modern analytical chemistry. Doctoral students should have a strong background in chemistry but specific topics (see program) allow candidates with preference for experimental, instrumental or computing activities to be considered.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'ENHANCED USE OF SEISMIC DATA FOR DETAILED BASIN SCALE FACIES MAPPING : INPUT FOR HIGH RESOLUTION HYDROCARBON SYSTEM ANALYSIS' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Innovation**

The aim of the project is to improve exploration for oil and gas in mature and unexplored sedimentary basins by better utilisation of already existing information. The aim is optimum utilisation of the existing seismic data through combined post- and pre-stack inversion, geostatics and state of the art 3D hydrocarbon migration analysis to improve the basis for exploration decisions.The innovation is the dedicated use of pre- and post-stack seismic data by inversion as well as the use of geostatistics to derive subsurface geological parameters in basin modelling.The state-of-the-art evaluation tools within hydrocarbon migration modelling admit a degree of detail in input data far beyond the resolution in input parameters extracted from sparse well data along basin crests alone. To enhance the hydrocarbon migration modelling both new data and new methodologies should be introduced in order to cope with tomorrow's basin evaluation. The main task of this project is to fully utilise the seismic data which is essentially the only information present between well locations. In order to extract lithological and petrophysical information special processing techniques are applied to the seismic data; both pre-stack and post-stack. Furthermore, geostatistics will be used to predict lithological and petrophysical information beyond the seismic resolution to the extent it is deemed of importance to enhance the hydrocarbon migration modelling.The aim of the project is to substantially enhance the mapping of :- thickness and lateral extent of reservoir and carrier beds- thickness and lateral extent of source rocks and carrier beds- possible porosity of reservoir and carrier beds- net/gross ratio of source rock/carrier bed.Beyond what is possible today with current techniques.The proje
