user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Food citizens? Collective food procurement in European cities: solidarity and diversity, skills and scale' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Concept**

Considerable attention goes to ‘smart’ urban food procurement, with little notice of the cultural diversity within Europe. For a growing urban population (80% by 2050), food is a mediator of relations within social networks, not only a commodity or nutrient. Eaters are not just consumers but social actors whose meaning-making depend on faith, gender, age, income, or kinship. How we procure and share food is thus central to cultural understandings of citizenship: the project studies in-depth nine cases of collective food procurement across three European cities, asking if collective food procurement networks indicate emerging forms of ‘food citizenship’, or if they concomitantly co-produce hegemonic notions of participation and belonging – and either way, how.Challenging stereotypical imaginaries of European urbanites, multilevel comparison in Rotterdam, Turin and Gdańsk will investigate three types of collective food procurement networks (a. urban foraging; b. short food chains; c. local food governance) in post-industrial cities, considering the dimensions of solidarity, diversity, skill and scale of action.Ethnographically, we investigate how collective food procurement networks engage with and through food: how do they interpret and articulate solidarity? Which skills do they acquire or lack? How do they operate across and within diverse communities? Do they scale ‘up’ or ‘out’, and how? Conceptually, we deliver a critical theory of food citizenship, adding a ‘meso’ level of sociocultural analysis to food scenarios, which mostly focus on the ‘macro’ (food systems) or ‘micro’ (individual deliberations and habituated reflexes) scale. Methodologically, we match in-depth fieldwork observation with participants’ narratives, using pioneering digital visual media to deliver

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Efficient and environmentally friendly aircraft engine (EEFAE)' (EEFAE) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

EEFAE Technology Platform consists of two vehicles involving 15 industrial companies, 2 research centres and 2 universities from 9 different European countries. These vehicles will be designed and tested to validate the results from a range of European, Nationally and company funded research projects with the overall objective of bringing demanding technical and environmental benefits to two different market sectors.This proposal will deliver a major contribution to the global environment through the reduction of CO2 (by 12-20%) and nitrous oxides (by up to 80%) into new products. By engaging all industrial capability in a co-ordinated programme, these technologies will be applied to both the wide body and narrow body aircraft market at the earliest opportunity- starting 2007/8.Owning the necessary technologies will provide commercial advantage, increase market share and employment in the European Aeronautical sector.This project is beyond the resources of any single European company or nation state. The combining together of resources and capabilities is essential to produce the critical mass required for the success of the project and ensure the investment is repaid via products that meet these goals in the market.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'The Potential Link between Transmembrane Sensors and Nucleic Acid Remodeling in the Shango Anti-Phage Defense System' (SHARP) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The SHARP (Shango Anti-phage Remodeling Pathway) project aims to explore the molecular mechanism of Shango system, a widespread bacterial anti-phage defense module. While the well-known CRISPR-Cas systems have revolutionized genome editing, bacterial defense strategies encompass over 130 distinct gene modules and present a treasure chest for novel biotechnologies. To eliminate viral threats, these systems employ various mechanisms, either pre- or post-injection. Shango consists of three core genes: SngA, SngB, and SngC with bioinformatically predicted functions thus far. SngA, annotated as tellurite stress response element, has two transmembrane helices and is proposed to detect an unknown viral signal. Its C-terminal domain may recruit SngB and SngC. SngB, a member of the AAA+ ATPase family, together with SngC, a DEAD-box helicase, likely participates in DNA remodeling.In this project, I hypothesize that Shango induces changes in nucleic acid topology, thus impairing phage genome integrity and preventing its replication, though the exact mechanism remains elusive. By isolating phage escapers capable of bypassing Shango, I aim to identify the triggering signal. Subsequently, I will analyze the specificity and unwinding activity of SngB and SngC using biochemical assays. Advanced techniques such as single-particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) will be used to elucidate distinct functional states of Shango. Leveraging Dr. N. Taylor’s expertise, I aim to assemble the complete complex of Shango together with its transmembrane helices. To reveal the spatial-temporal regulation of the system during phage attack, I will employ Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy to visualize the co-localization of Shango proteins and phages.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Advanced Components Cooperation for Optoelectronics Research and Development' (ACCORD).

assistant: **Concept**

The ACCORD project has the objective to put pre-competitive photonic components and systems in the hands of researchers and students, at no net cost to the university or to the company that furnishes the prototypes. <br/>As a result, students are trained on the next generation of emerging technologies and products as identified by European industries. This training orients students toward advanced technology jobs in Europe, thus helping to develop a highly educated and productive workforce in Europe.<br/>Each company that participates in the programme, and particularly so for SMEs, has a new and valuable resource for implementing research and development at a reduced cost that is also precisely focussed on the products and on the issues that are most relevant to that company's continued growth and success.<br/>By involving possible end-users in the programme, the supplying company gets access to possible new markets outside its normal field of operation. The supplying company therefore has a possibility to investigate possible new applications and reach out towards new markets without a significant cost.<br/>The ACCORD project greatly enhances professional mobility, particularly for students and researchers originating in new member countries. Through the ACCORD programme these professionals will be able to apply for a R&D agreement with a company located anywhere in Europe. The ACCORD project will act as a positive force to integrate this talented resource into the European economy.<br/>The models tested in this project and the experience gained will be used to propose a self-sustaining components exchange programme analogous to the Europractice program for access to microelectronic fabrication.<br/>

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces-based energy harvesting sustainable wireless communication systems.' (RISESWCS) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The essential role of digital technologies in modern society together with the profound changes introduced are reflected in the second Digital Agenda for Europe: 2020-2030 which is focused on radically improving digital infrastructure and providing ubiquitous public services by 2030 through gigabit connectivity in a low cost manner. This project considers low cost reconfigurable intelligent surfaces based energy harvesting sustainable wireless communication system (RISESWCS) for substantially improving the physical layer and medium access layer performance of the future wireless communication systems. Moreover, this project will provide a practical feasibility study for employing low cost RISs as a radio access network technology for a large scale wireless powered communication network with wideband transmissions. The project will systematically begin with the analysis, optimization of the RISESWCS at the physical layer and provide the performance analysis and optimization techniques for improving the data rate, coverage and energy efficiency at the physical layer. In this step, the practical aspect of the project will be ensured by carrying out the analysis and optimization by incorporating the realistic scenario into the system model which include imperfection in the channel state information, centralized overhead information unavailability and dependence of the reflecting angles in RIS elements on impinging frequencies. Then, the research will be extended to incorporate the medium access layer (MAC) for providing a holistic view for the large RISESWCS. In particular, MAC layer techniques, in terms of resource block allocations, scheduling and routing mechanisms, will be developed while considering the requirements of 6G wireless networks in terms of different fundame

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Quantum Engineering via Dissipation'.

assistant: **Concept**

Due to the ongoing miniaturization of devices, one of the central challenges of the 21st century's technology will be to handle quantum effects at the nanoscale. A first fundamental paradigm shift happened in the mid '90s when it was realized that quantum effects, which from the traditional point of view put fundamental limits on the possible miniaturization, could be exploited to do information theoretic tasks impossible with classical devices. The main obstacle in building such quantum devices however is the occurrence of decoherence, by which coherence within the quantum device gets degraded due to the coupling with the environment.<br/>In this proposal, we propose a second paradigm shift by demonstrating that one can actually take advantage of decoherence if engineered in a smart way. The central focus will be the study of quantum processes driven by dissipation, and we will investigate whether quantum coherence and the associated applications can actually be driven by decoherence. The main tools that we plan to use to achieve that goal originate from the theory of quantum entanglement. The timing of this innovative project is actually perfect as the field of entanglement theory is just mature enough to pursue the ambitious goals stated in this proposal.<br/>The main objectives of this proposal are 1. to set up a rigorous mathematical framework for studying fixed points and convergence rates of dissipative processes; 2. to investigate how highly entangled quantum states arising in strongly correlated quantum systems or in a quantum information theoretic context can be created by dissipative processes; 3. to study quantum devices powered by dissipation such as quantum memories and quantum Metropolis devices; 4. to use such devices to come up with novel ways for imple

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'IDENTIFICATION OF THE GENES REGULATED BY THE SIRT1 HISTONE DEACETYLASE AND THEIR CONTRIBUTION IN THE PATHOGENESIS OF TYPE 2 DIABETES AND OBESITY' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Type 2 diabetes is the most common metabolic disease and is characterized by insulin resistance in the liver, adipose tissue and skeletal muscle and impaired insulin secretion. Type 2 diabetes is a polygenic disorder which also involves environmental factors and is tightly correlated with obesity. Therefore, the identification of the genes associated with increased susceptibility to these diseases is difficult. At present, therapies for this disease are not completely effective and present secondary effects. To design new therapies, a better knowledge of molecular regulation of the expression of genes implicated in the pathology of diabetes is necessary. Gene regulation at transcriptional level has been demonstrated to be  directly correlated, among other factors, with chromatin structure which may be altered by covalent modifications of NH2-terminal end of histones, mainly through acetylation. The balance between acetyl transferase (HAT) and deacetylase (HDAC) activities controls the histone acetylation status. Among HDAC enzymes, sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) has been shown to suppress glycolytic pathway and to induce gluconeogenesis in the liver, two of the main alterations in the diabetic process. Thus, modifications in the histone acetylation level may be involved in the onset and the development of diabetes. Therefore, the main objective of this project is the identification of target genes for SIRT1 by using ChIP-chip methodology (hybridization of specific promoter microarrays (chip) with the products of chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP). The contribution of these genes to the diabetic process will be further evaluated by the generation and the study of genetically engineered animals by gene transfer. The results of this study may contribute to a better understanding of t

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Heavy Element Laser Ionization Spectroscopy' (HELIOS) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The aim of this proposal is to develop a novel laser-spectroscopy method and to study nuclear and atomic properties of heaviests elements in order to address the following key questions:- Is the existence of the heaviest isotopes determined by the interplay between single-particle and collective nucleon degrees of freedom in the atomic nucleus?- How do relativistic effects and isotopic composition influence the valence atomic structure of the heaviest elements?The new approach is based on in-gas jet, high-repetition, high-resolution laser resonance ionization spectroscopy of short-lived nuclear-reaction products stopped in a buffer gas cell. The final goal is to couple the new system to the strongest production facility under construction at the ESFRI-listed SPIRAL-2 facility at GANIL (France) and to study isotopes from actinium to nobelium and heavier elements.An increase of the primary intensity, efficiency, selectivity and spectral resolution by one order of magnitude compared to present-day techniques is envisaged, which is essential to obtain the required data .The challenges are:- decoupling the high-intensity heavy ion production beam (> 10^14 particles per second) from the low-intensity reaction products (few atoms per second)- cooling of the reaction products from MeV/u to meV/u within less then hundred milliseconds- separating the wanted from the, by orders of magnitude overwhelming, unwanted isotopes- performing high-resolution laser spectroscopy on a minute amount of atoms in an efficient way.Nuclear properties (charge radii, nuclear moments and spins) as well as atomic properties (transition energies and ionization potentials) will be deduced in regions of the nuclear chart where they are not known: the neutron-deficient isotopes of the actinide elements, u

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Advanced Technology for Microbial Electro-Synthesis of Platform cHemicals and Efficient in-situ Recovery via Electrodialysis' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Reduction of carbon emission to the atmosphere has become a key target to preserve the planet from its dramatic effects. The EU aims to become the first climate-neutral bloc by 2050, but development of novel carbon capture technologies, and a shift towards sustainable production of chemicals, are required to reach such ambitious goal. Microbial electrosynthesis (MES), in which CO2 is biologically converted to carboxylates and/or alcohols, enables reduction of carbon emissions whilst producing green chemical products. To date, acetate is the main compound produced from CO2 via MES, whereas more valuable caproate has been only produced at low concentrations due to product toxicity and thermodynamic limitations. The “atMESphere” project aims to push MES towards commercialisation by implementing a novel, resilient and sustainable biorefinery concept for selective production, extraction and concentration of caproate from CO2. In a first stage, the operation conditions in MES cells (including microbial consortia, pH, H2 partial pressure, and carbon availability) will be investigated and fine-tuned to obtain, for the first time, selective, high-rate caproate production from CO2. Then, a novel two-stage purification process, comprising of extraction through silicone membrane and concentration by shock electrodialysis, will be developed and integrated to the optimised MES cell, through a recirculation loop, to achieve selective separation of caproate, which has several applications in the energy, food and chemical industry. This project is highly interdisciplinary, involving tools, approaches and expertise from engineering, microbiology, electrochemistry, biotechnology, and membrane technology, and the experienced researcher will receive high-quality training on both scientific
