user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Self-Assembling Multivalent Biodegradable Ligands for Nanoscale Heparin Binding' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

This proposal targets the development of self-assembling nanoscale systems to bind heparin.  Heparin is widely used as an anti-coagulant during major surgery, but once surgery is complete, it is necessary to remove the heparin and allow clotting to begin.  The current therapy is protamine, a protein extracted from shellfish which acts as a powerful heparin binder, but unfortunately, causes allergic response and other problems in significant numbers of patients (ca. 10%).  We are therefore targeting the development of novel synthetic nanoscale protamine replacements which may avoid some of these difficulties.  Our unique strategy is to develop small molecules which self-assemble into nanoscale heparin binders.  This has the advantage of being highly tunable and uses low molecular-weight (drug-like) building blocks – allowing structure-activity relationship understanding of the binding event to emerge.  The self-assembled structures will be optimised in terms of their charge density, morphology, display of functional groups and ability to degrade, to maximise heparin binding and surgical potential.  This project will provide fundamental insight into the requirements of an effective heparin binder.  Our optimised systems will be tested in clotting and toxicity assays, and may have longer-term applications in a medical setting.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Analysing Temperature Effects with a Mobile and  Precise Gradient Device' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The ATEMPGRAD technology is based on the ASSISI|bf paradigm, which shows how an active dialogue can be engaged with organisms, instead of just observing them.  The PocketEthoLab takes up this principle and transforms it into a cost-effective and portable device, which is designed for use in educational institutions. It offers a range of interaction possibilities with different organisms (especially insects, but also plants, micro-organisms or even chemical reaction agents), especially through a temperature gradient or more complex and dynamic thermal patterns, which in their own rightoffer a range of interaction possibilities with the organisms. In addition, the device optionally offers a way to automatically observe and analyze the organisms’ behavior and a way to adapt subsequent stimuli to the observed behaviour. Through an extensible interface, many different stimuli can act simultaneously on the organism. Thus, we can provide a simple to use yet versatile tool for small scale research and educational purposes, which we would like to make commercially available to the general public by designing it as a novel educational tool for modern interactive forms of teaching biology, physics, ecology, ethology and global change.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Evolution of Female Ornamentation: a comparative and experimental approach using island birds' (EvoColorIsla) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

What drives the evolution of female ornamentation? Explaining the evolution of signals found in nature has been a persistent challenge for biologists, but studies have focused mostly on male ornaments, neglecting the question of why and how these traits evolve in females. Oceanic islands around the world provide a “natural laboratory” setting to test evolutionary processes due to their simplified ecosystems, and high levels of endemic species with variation in some specific traits. In particular, island species experience changes in sociality, competition, and predation, all of which are known to influence ornamental traits. I propose to combine comparative analyses, based on museum data, and detailed experimental investigation in the field, using 3-D printed models, to examine how female (and male) ornaments have evolved in island birds worldwide, while accounting for ancestral mainland attributes. Specifically, I will investigate a) the social and ecological factors associated with changes in female and male ornamentation following island colonisation, and b) test experimentally how female and male ornamentation elicit predator and competitor responses on both island and mainland settings.   The proposed project will thus have three key outcomes. First, it will determine how the transitions towards increased or decreased ornamentation in both sexes are influenced by changes in social, life-history and environmental factors. This will address the current disparity in our knowledge of elaborate signals in females vs. males and provide a comprehensive understanding of the processes that promote the diversity of sexual phenotypes. Second, the project will advance our understanding of the factors shaping the patterns of phenotypic change in island species. Finally, it will

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Alzheimer’s Disease Diagnosis by Spectroscopy. Accurate and Non-Invasive Medical Device for the Diagnosis of Early Stage Alzheimer's Disease.' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Raman HT is a company expert on Raman Spectroscopy (RS) which has developed a revolutionary medical device to diagnose Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) in blood plasma for the first time. Currently, there are only two accurate methods to diagnose AD, expensive, invasive with multiple side effects. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans the patient’s brain after being injected with a radioactive marker (cost of €1500) which can cause major allergic reactions. The other method analyzes the cerebrospinal fluid, which requires performing the patient a lumbar puncture. This procedure (relatively expensive, €400) can cause severe headaches, temporary pain of numbness to legs, infections and bleeding into the spinal canal. There are more than 30 million people living with AD in Europe and more than 7 million people that have not received a diagnostic due to the cost and side effects of the current techniques. Without diagnostic, patients lacks of a proper treatment that improves patients life quality ameliorating the symptoms of the disease.  The earlier the diagnosis, the earlier the treatment delaying nursery admission. Our solution consists of performing RS onto a sample of blood plasma. It is not invasive, has absolutely no side effects and an estimated selling price of €100. Our solution, making AD diagnosis more affordable, can produce net saving of €2,8bn to the European Healthcare system only delaying institutionalization. Our aim is to bring our solution into the market as a reference diagnostic method for screening patients for Alzheimer’s Disease. Alzheimer Disease is a huge problem that Europe needs to address due to the aging population. By 2050, 50% of the total European population will be over 65 years old and more importantly, 1 out 3 will suffer from Alzheimer’s Dis

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Microwave Cleaning of Drilling Mud and Oil Containing Hazardous Waste', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Currently around 70 oil and gas exploration/production rigs drill in the North Sea and approximately 240 floating drilling rigs operate in the global industry. Totally there are several thousand drilling rigs where approximately 2400 rigs drilling for oil and natural gas in North America. Drilling processes are lubricated by a viscous oil/water invert emulsion known as drilling mud. Although Water Based Muds, (WBM), mostly are used in the top hole sections, down in the drilling/bore holes where temperatures can reach 200ºC, the mud used is still Oil Based Muds,( OBM) (mixture of 45% oil, 45% water and additives) or Synthetic Based Muds (SBM). The waste from the drilling process is a heavy sludge of rock, clay, sand and drilling mud (oil and brine). In 2004 the total amount cuttings from OBM and SBM generated on the Norwegian Shelf was nearly 250 000 tonnes cuttings and 45 000 tonnes drilling oil brought onshore. Recent operations in sensitive regions in the Barents sea even requires that WBM cannot be dumped and must be treated on-shore.  From 2003 and onwards Western European countries are expected to spend on average between 0.5% to 1.5% of GDP on soil remediation in primarily the agricultural sector, industrial plants, land development and municipalities. In Western Europe there are more than 600,000 contaminated sites with a market of about € 50 billion p.a.  A threshold of 0.1% Oil Content (OC) on landfill for drilling muds was established by the EU Revised European Waste Catalogue of 2002. This requires development of new technology to meet the requirements in a cost efficient manner as current state of the art solutions are either cost prohibitive or do not meet the requirements.   Our proposed project aims to help cleaning up drilling waste and land contaminatio

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'A Bayesian Model of EEG Source Dynamics and Effective Connectivity'.

assistant: **Concept**

This project addresses two methodological challenges pertinent to cognitive brain imaging: Estimating the time varying neural generators of electric/magnetic field recordings on the surface of the scalp, and estimating the time varying effective connectivity between these neural generators. Recent theoretical models of perception adopt a generative approach to perception, whereby stimulus processing is controlled by top-down influences that create predictions about forthcoming events. In some cases, these top-down influences can lead to perceptual errors or inflation of affective experience. The extent and nature of these modulations, as well as their neural dynamics, are still to be determined. These mechanisms are key in a wide variety of phenomena including normal decision-making, social behaviour, and mental health. We propose to utilise the dynamics of anticipatory responses preceding a stimulus to investigate these mechanisms. We have shown that anticipatory neural processes preceding pain correlate with the intensity of the pain experience. However, the spatial distribution of these activities varies during the course of anticipation and is not precisely time locked to the anticipation cues. Current methods for source reconstruction of anticipatory responses do not take into account the dynamics of the generating networks. We propose to develop a dynamical network model that estimates the sources of the EEG and their connectivity, simultaneously. The proposed dynamical network model is capable of estimating the spatial characteristics of the EEG sources, together with their temporal and connectivity characteristics. This represents a major leap forward to understand the causal mechanisms of brain function as it gives rise to perception and a substantial contribut

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'A European Proactive Adaptive Clinical Trials Network within EU-Response' (2021-2027) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Recent pandemics showed Europe how serious health threats can be to society. Proactive approaches are needed to ensure that medical countermeasures are available during pandemics. PROACT EU-Response’s overarching objective is to prepare Europe for future pandemics by strengthening upon existing networks of experts and civil society focused on clinical therapeutic platform trials within hospital inpatient settings across Europe. In case of an outbreak, this network will provide capacity to pivot rapidly to implement large, multi-country platform trials studying therapeutics and diagnostic-tool performance. Underpinned by strong community involvement and further strengthened by the inclusion of social and implementation scientists, PROACT EU-Response centres on six objectives: expand a solid network of clinical centres across Europe that will implement a clinical trial assessing a syndromic approach for respiratory viral infections; strengthen a laboratory network to identify pathogens and biomarkers of disease monitoring for routine surveillance; support a network of methodologists and trialists who will ensure the trials’ logistical and methodological aspects; initiate a network of professionals to work on preparedness tools to ensure a smooth pivot from inter-pandemic to the pandemic period in case of an outbreak; build a network of social science researchers who will provide nuanced understanding of the social contexts; and establish a community group to work on activities that will empower patients and citizens in Europe regarding their own health and educate them about science and health issues. By bringing together scientists, social science researchers, and civil society members, PROACT EU-Response will benefit the entire European population and beyond through dec

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'NanOengineering cutting-edge micro-Devices in the far-infrared through advanced material Embedding'.

assistant: **Concept**

Artificial semiconductor heterostructures played a pivotal role in modern optoelectronic technologies, providing a highly effective platform for the generation of light across the mid-infrared (3-25um wavelengths) and Terahertz frequency ranges (50-250um). However, their challenging quantum engineering also limited their adoption in a spectral region (25-50um) still unexplored, and their use in frontier domains as integrated photonics and quantum science.NODE aims to intersect two materials platforms that in the last decade widely progressed – artificial semiconductor heterostructures and bi-dimensional materials – to deliver a technological revolution in the whole far-infrared (FIR) (25-250um). By combining the potential offered by the lithographic engineering of quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) with the giant non-linearities of Dirac materials, NODE aims to develop compact and coherent, solid-state classical and not classical FIR sources, leading to an entirely new and disruptive platform of FIR instrumentation.To reach these ambitious objectives, the versatile quantum design of QCLs will be exploited to engineer an ultrabroadband gain spectrum. By inserting graphene or topological insulators in the core QCL semiconductor heterostructure and implementing resonators of exotic fashion - elliptical tapered ring microcavities, sculptured wire lasers or gate-tunable plasmonic lasers - NODE will deliver the first: ps pulse, ring micro-resonator FIR comb, squeezed FIR laser, and electrically pumped source in the Reststrahlen band. A fast FIR technology to probe quantum correlation effects will be also devised.Radically new concepts and interdisciplinary approaches, encompassing advanced materials and device engineering, non-linear and plasmonic phenomena, drive this ambitious p

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Commercialization of a breakthrough wind resource assessment technology for automated planning of bankable wind farms' (WindSider).

assistant: **Concept**

The process of prospection and wind energy project development today is still lengthy and risky. In three out of four prospected sites no wind power plant is ever built. The main challenge is in accurately identifying a wind power sites. Today, assessing the practical constraints and estimating the potential long-term energy yield for different configurations is largely done through a sequence of manual and lengthy processing steps. Precise estimates take time, expertise and manual effort for the different steps and a high level of quality assurance by human experts to ensure the results are sufficiently accurate to be accepted by investors and lenders, i.e. 'bankability'.WindSider addresses the need for a automated and affordable solution for generating accurate and bankable resource maps, wind power plant designs and long-term yield assessment studies. WindSider outperforms the classical semi-automated process in terms of processing time and cost, while still ensuring bankable precision. WindSider is a game changer enabling for the first time generation of validated reports of bankable quality. This allows for prospecting more projects faster with go/no-go decisions at lower risk than today, leading to more new wind farms.Wind energy is abundantly available as a domestic energy source all over the world. It requires no fuel and causes no emissions. It is the fasted growing source of power globally and an essential pillar of Europe’s Energy Union strategy. At the same time, the overall process of wind energy project development and power generation is far from optimized, carrying vast business opportunities for those improving it. Between 2018-2024, the global wind energy installations on land will on average be 50 GW per year (200GW will be prospected), requiring 20,0
