assistant: **Innovation**

The primary aim of this project is to establish in Pisa a European Centre of Excellence dedicated to frontier, interdisciplinary research of human perception. The research will focus primarily on the human visual system (and its development), but will also investigate key issues of cross-sensory integration.  The Institute of Neuroscience has been a leading centre of visual research since its inception in the 1970s, when the multidisciplinary approach of Lamberto Maffei (physiologist) and Adriana Fiorentini (psychophysicist) made seminal and highly influential contributions to many aspects of human and animal vision. In recent years, the focus of the institute has veered towards developmental neurobiology. This project aims to reestablish a cognitive visual neuroscience section within the institute, dedicated to multidisciplinary research into human perception, using modern, non-invasive experimental techniques, such as psychophysics, evoked potentials, neuro-imaging and neuro-computation.  The PI has been highly active in cognitive visual neuroscience for thirty years, publishing 150 publications on diverse aspects of perception, including motion perception, colour, space, and vision during saccadics. The planned research builds on these themes, aiming at achieving a firmer understanding of perceptual processes. New topics will also be tackled, such as cross-modal integration between the senses, the perception of event duration and the sense of number estimation, or numerosity. The research will be multi-disciplinary, using psychophysical, neuro-computational and neuro-imaging techniques. Particularly exciting will be the application of state-of-the-art high-field imaging to these important research questions.  The establishment of this centre would be fundamental for

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'North Atlantic Climatic Sedimentary Archives. Provenance and Transport Controls'.

assistant: **Objectives**

North Atlantic deep-water formation is the starting step of the Meridional Overturning Circulation (MOC), which redistributes heat from low to high latitudes. Therefore, this region is a key modulator of Earth climate. Changes in this system by external forcings will easily propagate by the MOC, ultimately impacting global climate. Hence, the North Atlantic sedimentary record is an ideal archive of past climate changes. Paleoclimate reconstructions rely critically in accurate determinations of the sedimentary fluxes and the timescales of the mechanisms that trigger and propagate climate changes, yet important timescales such as the transport time of the sediments are still difficult to determine. U-series isotopes disequilibria provide an effective tool for reconstructing these fluxes and constraining these timescales. The time-dependence of 234U depletion relative to 238U in silt sized sediments provides a measure of the comminution age; the time elapsed since their production and final deposition. This can be used as a proxy for climate-induced changes in provenance and deep-current circulation. This proposal aims to reconstruct a high-resolution record of the comminution age, sediment fluxes and focusing, and post-depositional history of the last glacial cycle of ODP site 984 (Bjorn Drift, S Iceland). This interdisciplinary approach will involve U-series isotopes, magnetic properties, composition and sedimentological characteristics of these sediments. This project will test the hypothesis of an alternating source of sediments from Europe to Iceland in phase with glacial and interglacial periods, respectively, rather than a change in bottom currents activity. At the same time, it will provide further grounds for analyzing the response of this proxy in time-scales ran

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Transnational Private-Public Arbitration as Global Regulatory Governance: Charting and Codifying the Lex Mercatoria Publica' (LEXMERCPUB) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The proposed research will analyze the rising phenomenon of transnational arbitrations between private economic actors and public law bodies as a mechanism of global regulatory governance. It breaks with the prevailing view that arbitration involves no more than settling individual disputes and hypothesizes instead that arbitrators generate the rules governing public-private relations rather independently of specific domestic legal systems and their democratic processes, and thereby prospectively steer and restrict government conduct. The body of law thus crafted by arbitral tribunals is what the project designates as lex mercatoria publica, in allusion to the a-national law generated by arbitral tribunals in international private-private disputes.Unlike existing research, the proposed project will provide a comprehensive (historic, sociological, political, economic, and legal) perspective on the lex mercatoria publica and explore its legitimacy. It will, by empirically charting the modern and historic practice of private-public arbitration, describe and analyze the content of the lex mercatoria publica and develop, through comparative law research, normative criteria to assess the legitimacy of private-public arbitrations in democratic societies that are based on the rule of law. The research will result in a comprehensive online database and a codification of both the principles of private-public arbitration and of the lex mercatoria publica as developed and applied by arbitral tribunals.The project will enable arbitrators, judges, and other international and national decision-makers to render more predictable, more circumspect, overall better, and fairer decisions concerning private-public arbitration. This will provide solid foundations for enhancing transnational p

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Innovative design and control methodologies for large scale solar tracker'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Solar energy has been considered as one of the viable sources of renewable energy over the past years. Many solar energy collection systems have been developed to convert solar energy into either electrical or thermal power for the industrial and domestic applications. In these systems, solar trackers are generally utilized to increase the solar panel/mirror area exposed to the direction of the sun radiation. However, the current solar tracker mechanisms are heavy, expensive and extremely high energy consumption, which significantly limits the applications of solar energy collection. The objectives of this project are to investigate the innovative design and control method of a new generation of solar tracker which has the characteristics of small torque, low energy consumption and high stiffness. The expected achievements will provide unique techniques/methodologies for breakthrough design and development of solar trackers. In this project, the Grassmann Geometry and the work principle of stone mill in ancient China will be utilized to invent a novel solar tracker with small torque and high energy efficiency, and the performance atlas method will be explored for mechanical structure optimization. Further, the friction compensation and wind disturbance rejection control methodologies are established to improve the performance of the developed system.This project will bring the complementary expertise in advanced measurement and control, robotics and mechanisms led by the Warwick Group and the solar tracker design and analysis by Dr Wu. This combination has placed the team in the best position to achieve the ultimate objectives. The research will provide benefits for the sponsor by publishing high-ranking papers and inventing new solar trackers. The capability of develop

assistant: **Objectives**

With the increasing impact of mankind’s activities on the natural environment, disease naturally harboured by wild animals, both within the geographical limits of the EU and elsewhere, are becoming increasingly significant both for public health and health of livestock, in addition to having direct concerns for wild animal species. We are proposing a project which will combine (i) technological development to enable high through-put array-based screening of samples from a wide variety of wild animals with (ii) surveillance of terrestrial, aerial and marine wild animal species within Europe and from countries which act as portals of disease entry into the EU, (iii) epidemiological analysis and risk assessment using data generated during the project and from other sources, and (iv) development and proposal of a model framework for disease surveillance within Europe developed in parallel with the burgeoning systems in North America. The proposal will place the EU at the centre of wildlife disease surveillance and also enable the translation of high throughput array-based technologies into human and veterinary medicine.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'NOVEL OVEN WITH AUTONOMOUS ACCURATE TEMPERATURE CONTROL, FOR HIGHER ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND SAVINGS'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Current commercial pizza ovens have a low efficiency due to unchecked heat energy losses from poor temperature control. Poor temperature control also limits the functionality of these ovens. The ovens fail to meet the operational parameters needed to satisfy an emerging market of a new pizza called “Pinsa” made from dough with 80% water content. Hence pizza or Pinsa being prepared will be of low quality, either burnt or undercooked. Another pitfall of standard electrical ovens is their lack of inbuilt sensors for condition monitoring for better planned maintenance schedules. Wood fired ovens on the other hand are complex, and have high CO2 emissions. The European Union (EU) has pledged to cut its energy consumption by 20% by 2020. To align with EU goals, pizzerias need an increase in efficiency and productivity of their ovens to be able to match peak periods of pizza demands while retaining pizza quality and minimising energy losses. The emergence of Pinsa, a game changer in the pizza industry, also calls for a multipurpose oven for both ordinary pizza and Pinsa with a good heat delivery system and accurate temperature control. Ovenza, our solution is a novel commercial pizza oven, which maximizes efficiency through accurate temperature control, focused heating, online condition monitoring and intuitive collaboration with users. Its distinguishing features are the central control unit (CCU), power modules (two of them), and the heat delivery system. The CCU controls the operation of power modules. Control parameters are based on user input (e.g. specific temperature, time) fed through the oven’s touch user interface or received remotely via Wi-Fi. The global pizza market, valued at €117Billion is forecasted to grow at a CAGR of 3.68% during the period 2016-2020. After 5

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Constructing a ‘Eubiosis Reinstatement Therapy’ for Asthma'.

assistant: **Concept**

The asthma pandemic imposes a huge burden on patients and health systems in both developed and developing countries. Notwithstanding major efforts in untangling its pathophysiology, we are not even close to reaching a cure. Despite available treatments, symptom control is generally suboptimal and hospitalisations and deaths remain at unacceptably high levels. This calls for disruptive innovation towards a long-term treatment strategy. Asthma is an inflammatory condition associated with immune deviations, most often atopic allergy. However, a key characteristic of asthma that remains relatively unexplored is susceptibility to infection. Most acute asthma attacks follow upper respiratory infections; infections are also associated with asthma initiation and persistence. Recent studies reveal that the respiratory microbiome is characteristically imbalanced (dysbiotic) in asthma. Our own data indicate that a feature of dysbiosis in asthma is reduced abundance of bacteriophages (phages). These bacterial viruses infect and are able to naturally control bacterial populations. Phage therapy has been grossly neglected in the western world and is currently just appearing as a novel tool against infection. However, it has never been used for rebalancing dysbiosis in humans.We propose that reinstating eubiosis within the asthmatic airway through phage therapy is feasible and will be able to control the immune dysregulation and clinical presentation of the disease. To achieve this, we must be able to predict the effects of adding phage mixtures to the complex ecology of the airways and design appropriate interventions. In CURE, we will develop a predictive model using information from virus-bacterial interactions, host responses and clinical disease expression, validated and fine-tun

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Quantitative Assessment of Secondary Spectrum Access' (QUASAR).

assistant: **Innovation**

The need for the radio spectrum for the rapidly growing broadband access services is evident.  Abundant and fast access to spectrum has three main advantages: it fosters rapid innovation in wireless systems and services lowering entry barrier on the market; it enables affordable mobile broadband access to all; and makes new energy efficient wireless systems possible.  Secondary use of already licensed, but poorly inefficiently used spectrum, (Cognitive Radio )has been proposed as a solution to make more efficient use of the spectrum.  Low spectrum occupancy in a number of measurement campaigns worldwide has been the basis for claims of large gains in spectrum efficiency by cognitive radio. However, little research has been done to substantiate these claims. The QUASAR project aims at bridging this gap between the claims made in conventional cognitive radio research and practical implementation by assessing and quantifying the real-world" benefits of secondary (opportunistic) access to primary (licensed) spectrum.  The analysis is based on two key features of cognitive radio: the ability of the secondary users to discover the opportunity to use the spectrum, and assessing the electromagnetic impact of secondary user transmissions on primary system (receivers). Novel approaches are taken as we go beyond the conventional notion of detecting "spectrum holes" into treating spectrum opportunity discovery as a data fusion problem, as well as new schemes that cope interference from multiple uncoordinated secondary users. QUASAR will provide a comprehensive analysis of the techno-economical environment and provide detailed roadmaps and guidelines on how to apply and analyze new opportunistic spectrum access business models.  The project will finally provide specific and reasoned

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Long Term Stability of Dye sensitized Solar Cells for large area power applications' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Objectives of the Project  To be able to commercialise the Dye Sensitized Solar Cell (DSC) technology for large area power applications it needs to be clear what module life-times and efficiencies can be obtained. Therefore, there are two main objectives to this project: - To demonstrate that a 10 year outdoor module life-time is feasible. - To demonstrate that a module efficiency of 10% is theoretically feasible. Technical Approach The approach for the stability part is to start with simple, individually available stability tests of state-of-the-art devices. During the project new test procedures will be developed, especially suitable for DSC's, based on accelerated solar aging, transient response, thermal cycling and hot-spot illumination. The effect of the state-of-the-art cell components, component interactions and fabrication procedures on the stability will be visualised by extended characterisation (chemical, spectroscopic, electrochemical and solar cell characterisation methods). Improved components and fabrication methods will be developed and tested for stability. This will be implemented into devices, whose stability will be compared with earlier results. The approach for efficiency part is to reproduce literature laboratory efficiencies up to 10% for small area single-cell devices. Based on theory and experimental results, including advanced characterisation of devices and components a model will be developed to separate the various contributions of the cell components to the output characteristics. Experiments and model will result in knowledge about the maximum obtainable laboratory single cell efficiency. Combined with data on module design and module components a realistic estimation of theoretically feasible module efficiencies can be given. Expected Ac

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Gravity, Fundamental Physics and Astrophysics: The Missing Link' (ASTROGRAPHY).

assistant: **Innovation**

New precision observations of compact objects and the imminent advent of gravitational-wave (GW) astronomy provide us with the unique opportunity to test fundamental physics with astrophysical observations to unprecedented level. Neutron stars (NSs) and black holes (BHs) can be used as cosmic labs where matter in extreme conditions, particle physics, and even the very foundations of Einstein's theory can be put to the test. Triggered by recent breakthroughs at various levels, the area of strong gravity is experiencing a second Golden Age. In parallel with novel electromagnetic observations, advanced GW observatories in Europe and USA will open new windows to the unexplored strong-gravity regime and will finally shed light on the properties of ultradense matter in NS cores. The potential of GW astrophysics is enormous and far to be fully explored. Counterintuitive effects taking place near isolated compact objects have been recently discovered, but their GW signatures in realistic environment remain to be investigated. We are now in the exciting position of using observations to make contact between relativistic astrophysics and fundamental questions. The goal of our innovative project is to connect this missing link. We propose to investigate strong-gravity effects via precision GW phenomenology. In particular we aim to: 1) Develop semianalytical methods to study NS-NS binaries and spinning isolated NSs, and to constrain the behavior of matter at nuclear density using GW observations; 2) Develop a model-independent framework to study GW signatures of accretion onto massive BHs; 3) Investigate the interplay between “BH bomb” instabilities and accretion in the context of puzzling phenomena, such as jet emission or gamma-ray bursts; 4) Constrain dark matter candidates by s
