user: Draft an impact statement for 'An innovative, small footprint, vertical axis wind turbine for decentralized energy-production designed for urban areas, which is cheap to maintain and ensures energy production even at low wind speed', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Customers using traditional horizontal axis wind turbines are facing several problems, such as: noise, unaesthetic appearance so they need to be installed in remote locations. As a result, the power is generated very far from where it is meant to be consumed, causing an energy loss of 20% during the transfer (line-losses); they also need strong winds to function and are expensive to install and maintain. Newenergy21 has designed and developed UrbaVento, an innovative vertical axis wind turbine for decentralized energy-production (smart grid applications as well as off-grid), which features carbon-fibre “wings”, as well as a smart control and fault diagnostic software that simplifies maintenance and troubleshooting and tracks performance and savings. The UrbaVento is a big leap forward compared to current wind turbines due to its unique advantages, which are firstly: its compatibility with the urban environment, since it features silent energy production at low wind speeds, starting from less than 3m/s, while it can produce up to 10 MWh of electricity per year when operating between 7 and 10m/s; it is suited for distributed power production because it can be installed anywhere due to its compact size and attractive appearance. Secondly, it offers a higher return on investment since it is cheaper to install, operate and maintain, due to its low number of moving parts, the absence of a gearbox and the location of all serviceable components are at ground level, enabling the turbine to seamlessly reach its envisaged life-cycle; Thirdly, its wings can be used as a reflective screen, making it an attractive medium for advertising.The Phase 1 project will be focused on establishing a complete supply chain, a sound business model and commercialization strategy, a planning of all

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Using FREshwater organisms to MItigate the pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Amphibians are currently suffering severe worldwide declines caused by chytridiomycosis, an emerging infectious disease caused by the fungal pathogen Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). So far, disease mitigation strategies have taken a host-level approach, in which only the host-pathogen interactions have been considered. However, recent results have shown that disease dynamics can be affected by pathogen-environment interactions and underscored the importance of the host-pathogen-environment interplay. Indeed, in the field and laboratory, freshwater zooplankton was found to trigger Bd infection in two amphibian species by directly consuming Bd zoospores. This study raises the hope that chytridiomycosis outbreaks could be controlled in nature by natural augmentation of zooplankton. The project FreeMi aims at developing a safe and effective mitigation strategy targeting Bd at the habitat level. To achieve this aim, I will first identify whether amphibians are protected by the species richness, the overall abundance and/or a few key zooplankton organisms able to consume a high number of Bd zoospores. The samples will be collected from two regions: the Pyrenees and Germany. Then, I will identify the local species that are the most efficient at consuming zoospores. I will isolate these species and establish self-maintaining cultures in outdoor microcosms. Finally, I will test the efficiency of the cultures, in single as well as community trials, under biologically relevant conditions. Compared to other approaches, this highly innovative approach lacks the downsides associated with introducing non-native biocontrol agents (such as antifungal chemicals or non-native skin bacteria) in the environment. Moreover, it would allow to treat all amphibian individuals present at a s

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Next Generation Nanofluidic Devices for Single Molecule Analysis of DNA Repair Dynamics'.

assistant: **Concept**

DNA-protein interactions are at the core of the function of every human cell. Single DNA molecule methods have revolutionized our understanding of such interactions. A vast majority of these methods are based on attaching the DNA, at one or both ends, to a bead or a surface. This gives ultimate control of the positioning of the DNA molecules and forces that can be applied to them but makes it difficult to investigate interactions with DNA ends, especially when more than one single DNA molecule is involved. Such interactions are however of fundamental importance, not the least in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), the most serious damage to our genetic material. In nanoDNArepair I will develop and use a method that allows analysis of DNA-protein interactions on large, single DNA molecules for DNA freely suspended in solution. The method is based on entropically trapping and stretching genomic length DNA molecules in nanofluidic channels and using an orthogonal nanoslit to expose the trapped DNA to proteins of interest. In contrast to all existing nanofluidic devices, the novel device allows active addition (or removal) of proteins to (from) the confined DNA and positioning of two or more DNA molecules in close proximity. We will use the device to study the main repair machinery for DSBs, non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). In NHEJ a machinery of proteins finds the broken ends, protects them, holds them close and ligate the break. These steps are difficult to study with traditional single DNA molecule techniques, but perfectly suited for the nanofluidic device. The single molecule analysis can reveal stoichiometry, kinetics and dynamics of these processes, as well as identify important sub-populations, which is crucial for understanding the process.

user: Describe how 'Development of technologies for pretreatment of waste activated sludge before anaerobic digestion: reduction of sludge quantity and incresed energy yield' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

EU politics on wastewater treatment will result in increased amounts of waste activated sludge (WAS) in order to meet the new water discharge limits. Therefore, measures to deal with sludge disposal have to be developed. The problem is that WAS is poorly degraded during anaerobic digestion, because the cells do not disrupt. Pre-treatment of the WAS has great potential to optimise the anaerobic digestion. The objective of this project is to develop innovative pre-treatment methodologies of the WAS in order to: Reduce sludge quantities by at least 50%,Optimise renewable energy production by 50-100%, and to reduce the level of organic pollutants and pathogenic microorganisms. Dissemination of the results will be secured by focusing on methods beneficial to the economy of wastewater plants and other end-user industries. The project contributes to meet the EU objectives for production of renewable energy and thereby also to reduce the impact from CO2 on global warming.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'European Self Sovereign Identity Framework Laboratory' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Self-sovereign identity (SSI) promises to empower European citizens with new means to manage privacy, to eliminate logins, and to enjoy much faster and safer electronic transactions via the internet as well as in real life. SSI promises to empower European organisations to speed up, secure and automate transactions with customers, suppliers and partners, resulting in tens of billions of euros savings annually on administrative costs in Europe. SSI promises to drive a new business ecosystem with thousands of new jobs, new job categories and new business opportunities for existing and new European companies. SSI is not a self-fulfilling promise. While so-called SSI ‘solutions’ are popping up all over the world, the vast majority has a local scope, i.e. they solve a problem in a specific domain, they do not scale (at every level they need to, e.g. at the technical, process, information and business levels), and scarcely interoperate. Addressing these issues is a top priority for the eSSIF-Lab project. eSSIF-Lab (European Self-Sovereign Identity Framework Laboratory) is a lab-to-market project for ICT-24 subtopic 1-b “strengthening internet trustworthiness with electronic identities”, that facilitates the further development, integration and adoption of SSI technologies through a cascade funding approach targeting innovative companies developing SSI based solutions. eSSIF-Lab is championed by leading experts in SSI technologies, cascade funding, business acceleration and continuous deployment of open-source software. eSSIF-Lab will award up to 65 subgrants in 2 types of open calls, 1 targeting technical enhancements and extensions of the SSI framework (up to 23, for SMEs, startups, self-employed individuals, mid-caps, large companies, non-for profit-entities, research organ

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Grass Fibre as raw material for innovative Grass Paper products: the new economic and ecological resource for the European paper industry' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Concept**

With GRASPAP Grass Fibre Creapaper introduces a highly innovative, sustainable and cost-efficient alternative raw material for the European paper industry. About half of the 400 million tonnes paper produced worldwide every year are based on wood pulp. This consumes about 40% of the global industrial wood harvest. Moreover, transport and processing of the wood consume a lot of water, chemicals and energy. Costs and impact to nature are severe. Creapaper provides an unique solution to this problems by introducing Grass Fibres, produced by a novel patented mechanical process, as a new resource for the paper industry. This innovative material will reduce the raw material costs of paper mills by 50-70 % (compared to wood pulp) and is compatible to their standard production equipment. Grass Paper products made from these fibres are free of noxious substances, printable and have a distinctive sustainable, yet premium appearance. They are therefore very attractive for food and non-food packaging, tissue and print media applications. Several awards in the packaging industry and first orders from large, well-known brands confirm these USPs of Grass Paper products. While Creapaper's primary customers are paper mills, also brand owners and retailers will be addressed. This will increase the demand for Grass Paper and Grass Fibres rapidly and allow a fast scale-up in the European key markets. According to independent experts, the grass fibre material has the potential to become the paper industry's third raw material source besides wood pulp and waste-paper. Creapaper currently installs the first grass fibre production line and will transfer the stationary production process into a versatile mobile solution during this project. This will decrease the dependence on weather condition

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'An unrivalled medical device based on red- light photo biomodulation to prevent, improve and remove oral mucositis and dermatitis chemo radio induced as a side effect of cancer treatment'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Today the healthcare system is under great pressure, suffering the challenges brought by cancer and the ageing of the population. Among these challenges is the need for treating oral mucositis (OM) and dermatitis. Both are considered as adverse effects of radio and chemo-therapy employed during the treatment of some cancers, specially leukaemia, head & neck cancers and breast cancers which only generate dermatitis. There is an increase incidence of cancers worldwide, for instance, 842,000 new cases of head and neck cancer were diagnosed in 2017. In addition, leukaemia counts with around 352,000 new cases diagnosed in 2015. And breast cancer is the second most common cancer with 1.7 million new cancer cases diagnosed in the year 2015. These inflammations, occur in 100% of patients that are receiving chemotherapy high‐dose. In views of the situation, there is an urgent need to treat these chemo and radio therapy-associated diseases but the current medical devices are ill adapted since the radiation emitted cannot be controlled in a homogenous way, resulting in an inefficient treatment of OM and dermatitis. In response, NEOMEDLIGHT have developed ONCORED, an innovative medical device based on photo biomodulation for the non-harmful treatment of oral mucositis and dermatitis. ONCORED seeks to simplify workflows at the clinical level enabling the prevention, improvement and removal of OM and dermatitis with homogenous red-light whose dose (energy and power) can be well controlled. Having validated the reliability of the ONCORED system at the pilot scale, we now want to finalise its development and achieve market preparedness. In Phase 1 we aim to carry a Feasibility Study to warrant the project from a technical, commercial and financial point of view. Besides the crucial ben

user: Describe how 'Membrane protein aggregation and its links with neurodegenerative diseases' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Protein aggregation is associated with some of the most prevalent and devastating neurodegenerative disorders in our society, including Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. The intricate details of the aggregation process are now beginning to emerge through major efforts for characterizing the associated protein deposits . However, knowledge about the aggregation of membrane proteins, which account for about one third of the human genome , is still almost completely missing despite increasing evidence that implicates in particular the aggregation of those in the respiratory chain  and glucose metabolism  in pathological pathways.To cover this huge gap, this project is aimed at elucidating the association of membrane protein aggregation with neurodegenerative diseases. The extensive biophysical investigation of the aggregates of two model sugar transporter proteins, galactose (GalP) and lactose (LacY) permeases, is proposed. Initially, controlled ways to promote the aggregation of these two proteins will be investigated in detail. The use of a range of biophysical spectroscopic methods is proposed to obtain information on the nature of the aggregates and their formation process. Further in vivo experiments will probe bacterial ageing in the presence of these aggregates. This work is expected to lead to new insights into the nature of membrane protein aggregates, characterization of their formation, and determination of their possible roles in neurodegenerative processes.
