user: Draft an impact statement for 'Astrophysical Dynamics and Statistical Physics of Galactic Nuclei', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

We address some of the major unsolved questions of galactic nuclei using methods of condensed matter physics. Galactic nuclei host a central supermassive black hole, a dense population of stars and compact objects, and in many cases a bright gaseous disk feeding the supermassive black hole. The observed stellar distribution exhibits both spherical and counterrotating disk-like structures. Existing theoretical models cannot convincingly explain the origin of the stellar disks. Is there also a “dark cusp” or “dark disk” of stellar mass black holes? Are there intermediate mass black holes in the Galactic center? We examine the statistical physics of galactic nuclei and their long term dynamical evolution. A star orbiting a supermassive black hole on an eccentric precessing orbit covers an axisymmetric annulus. The long-term gravitational interaction between such annuli is similar to the Coulomb interaction between axisymmetric molecules constituting a liquid crystal. We apply standard methods of condensed matter physics to examine these astrophysical systems. The observed disk and spherical structures represent isotropic-nematic phase transitions. We derive the phase space distribution and time-evolution of different stellar components including a population of black holes. Further, we investigate the interaction of a stellar cluster with a gaseous disk, if present. This leads to the formation of gaps, warps, and spiral waves in the disk, the redistribution of stellar objects, and possibly the formation of intermediate mass black holes. We explore the implications for electromagnetic and gravitational wave observatories. Dark disks of black holes could provide the most frequent source of gravitational waves for LIGO and VIRGO. These detectors will open a new window on the

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Functional high-throughput analysis of the role of microRNAs in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Ischemia-reperfusion injury is a major cause of morbidity and mortality transversal to different clinical settings and pathologies, including myocardial infarction. Ischemia is characterised by insufficient supply of blood to tissues causing tissue oxygen deprivation. Importantly, damage by prolonged ischemia is further aggravated by reperfusion, leading to irreversible tissue damage. Identifying and understanding the factors contributing to ischemia-reperfusion injury is essential to counteract the irreversible damage and to potentially develop novel therapeutic approaches to intervene in myocardial infarction. Recent studies have shown that microRNAs control various aspects of heart disease, including ischemia-reperfusion injury. Although a few microRNAs have already been implicated in this process, a comprehensive analysis of the functional role of microRNAs in cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury is still missing.The main goal of this project is to identify microRNAs controlling the resistance/susceptibility of cardiomyocytes to ischemia-reperfusion injury and characterise the molecular mechanisms underlying their function. This will be achieved through the combination of gain- and loss-of-function high-throughput screenings using genome-wide microRNA libraries, and deep-sequencing analysis of microRNA expression in conditions mimicking ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion in vitro and in vivo. The identification and characterisation of the molecular targets of the selected microRNAs will entail a combination of computational and experimental approachesThis project uses innovative experimental approaches and will unravel a previously unappreciated network of microRNAs and microRNA targets critical to ischemia-reperfusion injury, which may reveal novel opportunities for

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Deep Neuron Embeddings:  Data-driven multi-modal discovery of cell types in the neocortex'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Understanding the relationship between structure and function of cortical neurons and circuits is one of the key challenges in neuroscience. For inhibitory neurons, roughly 15 subtypes are well characterized and we know a fair bit about their function. However, the vast majority of neocortical neurons are excitatory. Yet we know little about how differences in the morphology of excitatory neurons relate to their computational properties in vivo. I hypothesize that there is a close correspondence between morphology and function of excitatory neurons: distinct subtypes can be identified not only by their morphological features, but also by how they respond to stimulation with natural stimuli. To test this hypothesis, I will build upon recent advances in machine learning and develop a data-driven approach to derive a ""bar code"" for each neuron: a low-dimensional representation of its morphological features and its response properties to natural stimuli. Using these techniques, I will tackle the structure-function question by harnessing a large-scale functional anatomy dataset: a combination of electron-microscopy reconstructions at sub-micrometer resolution with two-photon functional imaging of nearly all excitatory neurons in one cubic millimeter of the mouse visual cortex. If successful, my project could fundamentally change our view on the diversity of excitatory cell types and reveal how morphological features are linked to a neuron's computational output. It could pave the way towards a unified definition of cell types, one of the fundamental building blocks of the brain. The same approach could be used in other brain areas and even other cellular systems beyond the brain. More broadly, while machine learning is promising to transform the scientific discovery proces

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Optical fiber display' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Optical Fibre Displays consist of a number of fibres that conduct light from a remote light source.This method is very attractive,since it has excellent light intensity (amount of lumen),has a relatively low energy consumption and hardly requires maintenance. The technology is suitable to applications in the automotive industry(headlights; dashboard lights),traffic signs and advertising displays.However,currently Optical Fibre Displays are only manufactured manually,no automated manufacturing has been developed.This brings along high production costs and man-dependent(inconsistent) products. This project is initiated to develop a machine to produce optical fibre displays reproduceably(i.e.at consistent quality)and against substantially lower costs.Hence,large-scale production becomes achievable. Also,research to a suitable resin and to syuthetic fibres is necessary to ensure automatic production. The machine to be developed is the most significant part of the project. This machine consists of an injection head cleaning system, fibre identification and separation unit(essential to the applications where more than one colour is required, i.e. advertising displays),cutting unit,extruder die, spooling unit, bobbin carrier and a process control unit. The project is proposed by a consortium,in which several manufacturers of specific machine elements have been united. The project foresees in design, development and testing of a proto-type machine,as well as in testing several resins and types of fibres.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Next Steps in Cosmology with CMB Spectral Distortions' (CMBSPEC).

assistant: **Concept**

The average spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) has long been known to be extremely close to a perfect blackbody. Yet, several processes, standard and non-standard, exist that may cause deviations from a blackbody spectrum, commonly referred to as CMB spectral distortions. Classical distortion shapes are known as Compton-y and chemical potential (µ-type) distortions; however, recently it has been shown that more general distortions can be created at redshifts 10^4 < z < 3×10^5. This makes spectral distortions a unique and powerful probe of different early-universe processes. The immense potential of CMB spectral distortion measurements and their synergies with upcoming CMB anisotropy studies (Litebird, COrE+, Stage-IV CMB) has identified them as an important future target, with several innovative experimental concepts (e.g., PIXIE, APSERa) being actively discussed by the cosmology community.This proposal has one main goal: to transform the emerging field of CMB spectral distortions into a mature scientific discipline. The team will significantly expand and strengthen the spectral distortion science case with particular emphasis on novel time-dependent information from the recombination era (10^3 < z < 10^4) and various photon injection processes. By combining all available information, we will investigate what spectral distortions could teach us about early-universe physics and the cosmological ionization history. Novel foreground parameterizations and experimental setups will be studied and simulation pipelines will be developed. Our work could deliver new tests for inflation, reionization and particle physics as well as extend our ability to distinguish sources of different distortion signals in the presence of foregrounds. We will identify novel spectra

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Tracking and quantifying the dynamics of tree water storage under future climate change (CapaciTree)', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Climate change threatens the future of forest functioning, compromises their productivity, increases the risk of fire or insect outbreaks, and ultimately causes tree mortality. Under drought, trees can experience catastrophic hydraulic failure due to xylem cavitation (i.e. the breakage of the water column), which is the main cause of tree mortality worldwide. Trees can partially avoid cavitation by mobilising water stored in their tissues into the xylem conduits to meet the atmospheric evaporative demand, a process known as hydraulic capacitance. Despite the relevance of capacitance for predicting transpiration and mortality risk under climate change, we still lack empirical evidence for the dynamics of storage-use and refilling of plant-water pools under drought, particularly for trees growing under natural conditions. Here, I propose to combine labelling experiments with isotopically enriched water with a new technique to selectively extract water from different woody tissues, to quantify and characterize hydraulic capacitance, specifically the refilling and storage-use dynamics, and its contribution to transpiration. I will: 1) characterize the dynamics of tree storage water in relation to tree size; 2) develop a novel methodology to quantify the contribution of capacitance to transpiration; 3) estimate the contribution of tree capacitance to transpiration in mature trees in a native Mediterranean forest subjected to severe drought; and 4) compare the proposed methodology with conventional techniques to assess capacitance in three coexisting Mediterranean tree species in response to drought. My expertise in plant ecophysiology will be key to undertake this project, which will also leverage my skillset for the study of forest resilience to drought. This project will s

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Reconstituting Cytoplasm Mechanics' (CYTOMECH) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The cytoplasm is not a simple water-like liquid; it is a crowded heterogeneous medium filled with macromolecules, active cytoskeleton networks and endomembranes. This rich rheology must be precisely coordinated to regulate fundamental cellular processes such as molecular diffusion or cell division. However, while the material properties of the cytoplasm have been well studied at the nanoscale relevant to e.g. protein diffusion, its regulation at the scale of larger assemblies, like nuclei or mitotic spindles, remains poorly addressed. Recent results from the host team suggest that cytoplasm fluid mechanics play a key role in the regulation of cell division of large cells that mark the development of early embryos. In this CYTOMECH project, I thus aim to address how cytoplasm mechanics is regulated during early embryo development. I hypothesize that endomembrane vesicles, tubules and sheets form a crowded polydisperse suspension close to jamming that dominate cytoplasm rheology at the scale of large objects like nuclei or mitotic spindle, relevant to early embryo morphogenesis. Using sea urchin embryos as a model, I will first combine advanced imaging of the cytoplasm with active measurements of cytoplasm mechanics using in vivo magnetic tweezers to address how this endomembrane suspension evolves during early embryogenesis to modulate cytoplasm material properties along with embryo development. Then, using an artificial cell approach, I propose to reconstitute cytoplasm mechanics by encapsulating different cytoplasm extract fractions, enriched in various sets of endomembranes, in water-in-oil droplets; and use this assay to perform a mechanical screen of the cytoplasm. CYTOMECH will represent a breakthrough for our current understanding of how spatiotemporal changes of

user: Explain how 'A fast non-intrusive vapour detection system that rapidly identifies explosives in public areas' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Terrorism has become the most prominent security issue of the 21st century and fighting terrorism is a top priority. Our society has been the target of a series of deadly terror attacks in recent years. A total of 11,072 terrorist attacks occurred worldwide in 2016, resulting in more than 25,600 total deaths and more than 33,800 people injured. Explosives were used in 54% of the attacks.  Explosives or bombs can be made easily at home and hidden simply in a suit or under clothes, making it impossible to notice without specialised equipment. Existing solutions such as X-ray machines, security scanners and body search, are not capable of detecting explosives as such: they merely detect objects which might be explosives. In addition, they often require the direct involvement of security staff, resulting in time-consuming procedures. Therefore, even simple bag or body screening can significantly increase the waiting time and crowd.The Eye on Air solution is a fast non-intrusive screening system for detecting explosive materials in public areas. The key innovation lies in an ultra-compact Ion Mobility Spectrometry (IMS) sensor, capable of detecting any kind of explosives as required by the European Civilian Aviation Conference (ECAC) within 2-5 seconds. The first application of the IMS technology will be AirBrush, a shoe-specific explosive vapour detection system for airports. AirBrush is the first effective shoe-specific explosive detection system, enabling seamless and quick screening of 100% passengers while significantly cutting waiting time in line and operational costs for security. The overall objective of AirBrush innovation project is to optimize the AirBrush design and validate its performance through pilot test with NCTV at Schiphol Airport (one of the largest air
