user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Effects of Mediterranean desert dust outbreaks on radiation, atmospheric dynamics and forecasting accuracy of a numerical mesoscale model' (MDRAF) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main objective of the proposed project (MDRAF) is to describe the 3D structure of Mediterranean desert dust outbreaks and study their effects on radiation and atmospheric dynamics by means of numerical modeling (NMMB/BSC Chemical Transport model-NMMB/BSC-CTM). Moreover, the meteorological feedbacks and the forecasting accuracy of NMMB/BSC-CTM when dust effects are considered will be assessed. The study region covers the broader Mediterranean basin and the analysis extends over the period 2002-2012. For the identification of desert dust outbreaks, an objective and dynamic algorithm will be set up where as initial conditions various aerosol optical properties derived by MODIS-Aqua, EP-TOMS and OMI platforms will be used. Additionally, satellite (CALIPSO) and ground (EARLINET) measurements providing the vertical profile of dust loads will be also analyzed. The accuracy of algorithm’s outputs will be evaluated against optical (AERONET) and physical (PM10) measurements. At the next step, the direct radiative effect (DRE) will be estimated at the top of atmosphere, into the atmosphere and at surface for the shortwave (SW), longwave (LW) and net (SW+LW) radiation. The induced radiative effects are expected to affect the vertical atmospheric heating profile leading to a modification of the atmospheric dynamics. For this purpose, it will be studied how dust DREs affect the temperature vertical structure, the surface temperature and sensible/latent heat fluxes, stability/instability conditions, the convective available potential energy (CAPE), clouds and precipitation formation. Also, the possible feedbacks induced by dust particles affecting thus their production/removal rates as well as the atmospheric circulation patterns related with their transport processes will be also

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Emptiness: Living Capitalism and Democracy After (Post)Socialism' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

This project proposes to study “emptiness” as a concrete historical formation that has emerged in conditions when socialist modernity is gone and promises of capitalist modernity have failed. It is developed on the basis of the following observations: (1), many towns and villages across the former socialist space are being abandoned by capital, the state, and people; (2), there is a proliferation of popular and scholarly imaginaries and discourses of emptiness as the ruination of material, social, and economic life, and the coming of a radically different future; (3), emptiness and emptying are politicized, with some political actors pointing to the risks of emptying and others considering narratives of emptying as themselves threatening to the existing political order; and (4), despite—or because—of politicization, emptying is subject to governance, as in the case of “shrinking cities” in East Germany. And yet, the material, social, and political contours of emptying and emptiness are poorly understood. This has considerable effects for how people act upon the concrete challenges that emptying and emptiness present. The project mobilizes emptiness as an emic discursive figure derived from ethnographic research in the Latvian-Russian borderlands to study the withdrawal of the state, capital, and people in Eastern Ukraine, the Russian Far East, and Belarus. The project aims to: (1), study the experiences and narratives of emptiness and emptying; (2), examine the politics and governance of emptying and emptiness; and (3), use postsocialist “emptying” and “emptiness” as lenses for analyzing global reconfigurations of relations between capital, the state, people, and place. It argues that postsocialist emptying and emptiness prefigure emergent spatial organization of econom

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'EGNSS-ENABLED SMART ROAD INFRASTRUCTURE USAGE AND MAINTENANCE FOR INCREASED ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY ON EUROPEAN ROAD NETWORKS'.

assistant: **Innovation**

ESRIUM is a multi-national project with the common goal to set up a service to foster greener and smarter road usage, road maintenance, and to increase road safety. The key innovation will be formed by a homogeneous, accurate and recent digital map of road surface damage and road wear. ESRIUM’s core proposition is a data platform, which hosts highly detailed EGNSS-referenced map data of road damage and associated safety risks at centimeter-level resolution. Further addressed as “road wear map”, it will contain unique information, which is of value to multiple stakeholders: road operators will be able to lower the road maintenance effort by optimal planning. Further, road operators will be able to lower road wear and increase traffic safety especially for heavy vehicles. Considering the market introduction of partly automated truck fleets, the precise track of these vehicles can be adjusted by communicating precise routing recommendations in- and cross-lane. Truck fleet operators following these recommendations can receive tolling benefits, and increase the general safety for their vehicle fleet. Especially with the increasing levels of autonomy, systems will utilize infrastructure support to handle the requirements of the automated driving task and additional external requests. In ESRIUM, these opportunities are addressed by utilizing C-ITS infrastructure and EGNSS based localization in planning the trajectories of such automated vehicles. Key to the ESRIUM innovation is a precision localization service, which provides reliable locatization information of road damages and of the vehicles using the roads. Considering a European-level business-case, only Galileo may provide such a service in homogeneous quality, even at very remote locations on the European continent.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Increasing the security of access to urban critical infrastructure with a Near Field Communication micro SD smart card for mobile devices using on-chip state of the art technology'.

assistant: **Objectives**

R-DAS, Ltd. presents OneCard, a microSD (uSD) card, and offers a full replacement of the classic NFC smart card by integrating the NFCantenna and secure elements (SE) into one uSD card. It maintains the memory of the uSD card and offers the highest (hardware) security for its users. The protection of critical infrastructure is a significant objective of the EU, and access control systems represent a considerable part of it. A major part of electronic access control systems use smart cards, which however are very impractical due to the number of these cards people use every day. Two SEs in OneCard assure hardware separation of application domains requiring extra safety, therefore it can be used instead of several smart cards. The NFC antenna and communication of our product are patented. There is no need to buy an expensive phone with NFC which results in great independence. With OneCard R-DAS can significantly advance  together with the progressive growth of the NFC and access control market.Our business concept is based on B2B – our customers are providers of access control services and systems. Owing to OneCard, they may offer higher quality and cheaper services without the need of changing their technology and infrastructure. The final user of the card gains a more comfortable and safer way of access to tangible or virtual systems.The EU, as the third involved party due to safer access control gains a more protected critical infrastructure and earns goodwill of users adapting these systems.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Helix Nebula – The Science Cloud' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Over the coming 10-15 years the generation of vast amounts of data created by scientific research domains will create enormous challenges for capturing, managing  and processing of this data. Tests have been made but today commercial cloud services do not play a significant role in the production computing environments for the publicly funded research sector in Europe. Stimulated by the Pre-Commercial Procurement (PCP) commitment of leading research organisations from 7 countries, HNSciCloud will pull together commercial cloud service providers, publicly funded e-Infrastructures and the buyers’ in-house resources to build a hybrid cloud platform on top of which a competitive marketplace of European cloud players can develop their own services for a wider range of users. This project will bring Europe’s technical development, policy and procurement activities together to remove fragmentation and maximise exploitation. The alignment of commercial and public (regional, national, and European) strategies will increase the rate of innovation. Through a competitive series of design, prototype and pilot steps, HNSciCloud will contract suppliers to deliver a 5% scale deployment of a hybrid cloud platform that can address the extreme needs of world class scientific research, including:• Catalog of secure and interoperable services from multiple suppliers that have successfully passed an international recognised certification process• Agile procurement process suitable for the dynamic cloud services market and tailored to the needs of the public research sector• Development of monitoring frameworks to ensure compliance with international security and interoperability standards, performance criteria and financial benchmarking against global market leaders.The resulting common plat

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Novel metal clusters in protein clefts' in the context of a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The assembly, structure, and properties of novel iron and other metal nano-clusters in the cleft of the protein bacterial transferrin will be investigated. The work is of high significance for understanding iron uptake by pathogenic bacteria and the mechanisms of biomineralization. Small protein-bound oxo iron clusters are of potential importance in the design of novel materials with unusual magnetic and catalytic properties, and of novel antibiotics.   This bioinorganic chemistry project will be highly interdisciplinary, crossing the boundaries of inorganic chemistry, biology, biophysics, medicine and materials science. The host institution is well equipped with state-of-the-art equipment and facilities for the proposed project either directly within the School of Chemistry in Edinburgh or in associated centres, e.g. Edinburgh Protein Interaction Centre (EPIC), Institute for Cell and Molecular Biology (ICMB), Scottish Centre for Genomic Technology and Informatics (GTI), Collaborative Optical Spectroscopy and Micromanipulation Centre (COSMIC), Institute for Integrated Micro and Nano Systems (IMNS), Centre for Science at Extreme Conditions (CSEC), and the Interdisciplinary Research Centre in Proteomic Technology (Radical Solutions for Researching the Proteome, RASOR).   Mobility to the host country under the supervision of Professor Sadler and visits to the laboratories of European collaborators will provide the applicant with unique training for an independent future career in academia or industry. The applicant will learn to establish a programme as an independent research worker, acquire new cutting-edge skills, participate in multicultural research teams, experience the benefits of cultural diversity and acquire an international profile for his career.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Single cell heterogeneity in the mammalian liver' (LIVHET) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The mammalian liver performs critical functions for maintaining metabolic homeostasis. It regulates the body’s glucose and lipid stores, detoxifies blood, and produces bile among a host of other functions. The liver achieves this diversity through the collective behaviour of heterogeneous hepatocytes operating in highly structured microenvironments. Understanding the design principles of the liver is an open challenge requiring analysis of single cells within the intact tissue.Liver heterogeneity appears at two length scales. At the liver lobule level centripetal blood flow creates gradients of oxygen, nutrients and hormones. The consumption of hepatocytes along the lobule axis determines the inputs available for more centrally located hepatocytes. The resulting spatial division of labor, termed ‘liver zonation’ could enable optimal tissue function in face of these long-range constraints. At the cellular level most hepatocytes are polyploid cells, having either one or two nuclei and a corresponding variability in cell sizes. The functional advantage of liver polyploidy remains unclear.In this proposal we aim to combine single molecule transcript imaging in the intact liver with theory from systems biology to uncover the design principles of liver heterogeneity. We will examine the hypothesis that spatial zonation and hepatocyte polyploidy evolved to enable the liver to optimally operate. We will characterize the spatial co-expression patterns of key liver genes and theoretically compare the ability of these patterns to excel over alternative patterns. We will also characterize the differential resource allocation of hepatocytes of different ploidy classes.This interdisciplinary project stands at the forefront of research in mammalian biology, addressing fundamental prop

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Regulation of Inflammation' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Despite its fundamental importance, our understanding of the immediate mechanisms directing tissue response and the complex cell-cell communications regulating its resolution remain fairly limited. Moreover, current anti-inflammatory drugs work relatively unspecific as on-off switches, thereby exhibiting considerable side effects. Studies on innate immunity have benefitted from the introduction of the transparent zebrafish larvae as an assay system. Transgenic fish expressing fluorescent proteins in leukocytes allow direct quantification of the inflammatory response in real-time in a live animal. However, the assays used to date require physical wounding of the fish preventing even a medium throughput experimental scale. We have developed a novel wounding assay without the need for mechanical wounding allowing high throughput large-scale analyses towards a comprehensive understanding of inflammation.Here, I propose the generation of an automated screening platform based on our specific ‘non-invasive’ chemical wounding followed by automated microscopy and image acquisition that will allow the in vivo screening of thousands of compounds in a matter of days with respect to their effect on leukocyte recruitment, leukocyte function, resolution of the response and general toxicity in a single assay; target profiling of small molecule ‘hits’ from by chemical proteomics and integration of acquired data into an interactive web-based repository aiming at an interconnected view of molecular networks guiding an innate immune response.This platform will allow chemical and genetic screens to the identification of new molecular pathways involved in innate immunity. At the same time, our approach will identify lead compounds for the development of novel immuno-modulatory drugs with enh

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Low nox flox combustor for high efficiency gas turbines (FLOXCOM)' (FLOXCOM).

assistant: **Concept**

Objectives and Problems to be Solved:The objectives of the project are to develop an innovative multiple fuel combustor for small-scale gas turbines, suitable for operating at high temperatures while maintaining low NOx levels. Operating conditions with turbine inlet temperatures above 1600K (and 15 bars) are required to boost the thermal efficiency above the value of 35%. A similar concept could be extended to larger gas turbines in combined cycle to exceed efficient energy conversion of 60%. Another objective is to improve the internal reactive aerodynamics in order to obtain more uniform wall temperatures for lower thermal stresses, and lower values of the exhaust gases pattern factor for more circumferential uniformity at the combustor exit. Both parameters are crucial for increased reliability and availability of the turbine. The aim of the project is also to gain advanced engineering expertise in combustion, including modelling of combustion chemistry and aerodynamics, wall cooling and high momentum fuel stream injection. Finally the project should prove the performance of a pilot flameless oxidation combustor. Description of Work: The work is equally divided between theoretical studies and experimental tests. It starts with basic studies required to improve the understanding of turbulence-combustion coupling and utilises well-defined and controlled laboratory experiments. Basic studies are also to be performed on an innovative fuel atomisation method that will serve as the momentum accelerator for the main vortex, which has a major role in the new combustor operation, while maintaining circumferential uniformity. Additional investigations will be conducted to develop wall-cooling methods where the jets are optimised for maximising the effect of vortex momentum au

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'An enhanced drug delivery system for brain cancer treatment which will be tested by human cell-based 3D in vitro microfluidic system' (Enhanced-DDS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Cancer treatment by current clinical methods has many side effects, which result from the non-specificity of these methods. Moreover, treatment of some cancers, such as brain tumors, is extremely difficult because the brain barriers (blood-brain barrier (BBB) and blood tumor barrier (BTB)) prevents more than 98% of drugs from entering the brain. The use of stimuli-responsive nanomaterials for cancer therapy is more efficient than conventional ones due to access to targeting tissues, deep molecular targets, lower side effects, and controlled drug release. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) are widely used nanocarrier for drug delivery due to their unique physicochemical properties. However, the lack of consideration of the economic efficiency of MSNs synthesis, their surface modification methods, and the lack of use of physiologically relevant systems to test the efficacy and safety of MSNs, have caused that an effective and definitive cancer treatment method by MSNs has not been provided so far. In this project we aim to solve these problems and make the use of MSNs for therapeutic approaches realistic. The goal of this project is to develop a biosource-derived stimuli-responsive MSN for combined PDT/ chemotherapy of brain tumors to be evaluated in a physiologically relevant human cell-based 3D in vitro brain tumor microfluidic system. This project will be the first to investigate a combination therapeutic agent based on natural products modified with advanced plasma technology and evaluated in a novel human cell-based 3D microfluidic in vitro system that includes the BBB. Outcomes of this project will enhance the existing knowledge and technologies for MSNs’ synthesis, modification, and their cancer treatment performance evaluation, which will yield high-impact jou
