user: Explain how 'Dementia modelling' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Dementia constitutes a major burden on society, both in monetary costs and the suffering of patients and their relatives. It comprises a number of diseases including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and vascular dementia (VaD). In recent years, imaging biomarkers have been developed including measures of brain morphology (MRI T1), vascular pathologies (MRI T2*/FLAIR), white matter abnormalities (MRI DWI), perfusion (MRI ASL), glucose turnover (PET FDG), and accumulation of pathological proteins (PET PIB/AV45). Quantitative measures using these biomarkers in large cohort studies have the potential to model the pathological process of the disease. This proposal would create an innovative training network, in which early stage researchers will develop new computational imaging biomarkers, under the supervision of experienced researchers, for the purpose of modeling dementia etiology. One researcher will investigate quantification of vascular pathologies, another will develop quantitative measures of white matter abnormalities from structural MRI, and the final researcher will construct a quantitative model of disease etiology using a maximum-likelihood framework. The early stage researchers will be enrolled as PhD students at University College London (UCL) under the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Medical Imaging (CDT), which is based in Centre for Medical Image Computing (CMIC), with the Dementia Research Centre (DRC) being one of the main clinical collaborators for CDT studentships. However, they will spend the majority of time at the research facilities of Biomediq A/S, Copenhagen Denmark, where they will be exposed to industry and work under professional guidance.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Measuring Levels of MHC diversity between free-ranging and potentially isolated populations of Black-backed jackals(Canis mesomelas)'.

assistant: **Concept**

Among the consequences of barriers to movements of animals within and between populations are a reduction of genetic diversity and an increase in genetic differentiation between populations. Protein coding genes of the MHC have been previously identified as potentially suitable markers for estimating adaptive variability within populations. In addition to the use of traditional neutral microsatellite markers, this project “Jackals” will investigate variation in levels of allelic expression and heterozygosity at the Major Histocompatibility Complex, (MHC) in populations of Black-backed jackals (Canis mesomelas) located within and outside wildlife reserves. The project will also use spohisticated GPS tracking techniques to determine if wildlife park barrier fences present an obstacle to gene flow between park and free-ranging populations.The objectives of this research are therefore;•To compare differences between MHC allelic profiles for populations/family groups of jackals located within at least two fenced wildlife parks and from free ranging jackals from the habitat surrounding these parks.•Compare levels of MHC and neural maker heterozygosity between these populations/family groups.•Determine if park jackals do have higher ecto-parasite burdens that their free ranging counterparts.•Determine if correlations exist between presence/absence of specific MHC alleles and high ecto-parasite burdens•To assess the permeability of game fences to the movements of jackals using telemetry techniques.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'The use of life cycle assessment tools for the development of integrated waste management strategies for cities and regions with rapid growing economies' (LCA-IWM) targeting Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

In this projects practical tools will be developed to support (i) planning of new and (ii) optimisation of the existing waste management systems in the European cities. The targeted tools are: Waste generation prognostic model and Sustainability criteria and indicators for assessment/benchmarking of waste management scenarios. The developed tools will be then practically verified through application for waste management planning and/or optimisation in the selected cities from rapid growing European regions: Barcelona, Tarragona (Spain), Xanthi (Greece), Wroclaw (Poland, Nitra (Czech Republic) and Kaunal (Lithuania). The proposed decision supporting tools will be suitable for use in any other European region, for the purpose of waste management optimisation and/or benchmarking.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Traces de la Verité: The reappropriation of ancient wisdom in early modern natural philosophy'.

assistant: **Concept**

VERITRACE addresses the influence of ancient wisdom writings on the development of early modern natural philosophy. During the Renaissance, works such as the Chaldean Oracles, the Sibylline Oracles, the Corpus Hermeticum and the Orphic Hymns were rediscovered and reappropriated into a prisca sapientia, a perennial tradition that considered these writings to contain truths about God, mankind, and the cosmos. Johannes Kepler, Francis Bacon, Pierre Gassendi, Isaac Newton, and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, foundational for the development of modern science, all ascribed to this tradition, and with them many others; yet so far no comprehensive account exist of exactly what they took from these ancient wisdom writings and how the idea of a perennial truth influenced their knowledge-making. This project focuses on the influence of the Renaissance prisca on early modern natural philosophy in its broadest sense by deploying existing yet bespoke techniques for distant reading on a large corpus of early modern printed works. It traces how the most prominent ancient wisdom writings returned in the natural philosophical discourse, what exactly natural philosophers took from these writings, and how these writings functioned in the economy of early modern science. It also traces the debate surrounding these ancient wisdom texts and the supposed truths contained therein throughout early modern Europe, differentiating between the various sentiments with which these texts were perceived, read, and discussed. As such, VERITRACE fills in a major lacuna in our understanding of the emergence and development of early modern science, focussing not on isolated events but on the movement as a whole, whilst making use of state-of-the-art digital techniques adapted for an early modern environment.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'The role of microbes in the fate of nanoplastics in the marine realm' (NanoMare).

assistant: **Innovation**

Nanoplastics (plastic litter fragments <1µm) were only recently discovered in the marine realm. Due to their colloidal nature, nanoplastics may be dispersed throughout the ocean, potentially affecting all marine life. However, their minuscule size has made it virtually impossible to measure their distribution or determine if microbes can degrade nanoplastics, thus influencing their fate in the ocean. Innovative approaches developed by my team have now made this possible for the first time. Using an ultrasensitive mass spectrometry method, our preliminary results revealed substantial concentrations of various nanoplastic types in both surface waters and the deep sea, suggesting that nanoplastics could constitute an important part of the ocean’s plastic budget. Simultaneously, results from a novel stable isotope assay uncovered the previously unknown ability of marine microbes to degrade nanoplastics, indicating that microbes play a crucial role in determining the fate of these particles in the ocean. However, marine microbes and the ecosystem services they support could also be negatively impacted by nanoplastics. Building on my team’s innovative approaches, we will conduct in situ experiments across surface and deep sea environments, complemented by investigations under laboratory conditions. Through the NanoMare project, we will be the first to provide fundamentally new insights into nanoplastic degradation kinetics, nanoplastic-degrading microbes (including degradation pathways and genes), impacts of nanoplastics on the ocean’s microbiome, and the global prevalence and distribution of nanoplastics and their degradation products in the sea. The NanoMare project will profoundly enhance our understanding of ocean microbe-nanoplastic interactions and nanoplastic inventori

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'Recycling of calcium carbonate used in flue gas decontamination'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Through the introduction of National Environmental Legislation such as the Environmental Protection Act 1990 Part 1 in the UK and EU member state equivalents, particularly in the heavy clay industries, eg. brick manufacturing, an environmental problem has been created in disposing of the waste product generated in the gas cleaning process. Gas is passed through quarried calcium carbonate and during the cleaning process the calcium carbonate reacts with the flue gases including hydrogen fluoride to produce calcium based compounds consisting of fluorides, sulphides and chlorides amongst others. This waste product is currently collected and used in land fill in designated sites. This is not only expensive but causes a high level of environmental damage due to potential leaking of contaminants into waterways etc. As the amount of waste increases through this cleaning process, so will the potential environmental hazard. This project is centred around the following key areas: i) The elimination of potential land fill conta by fluorides, chlorides and sulphides through the proposed introduction of waste recycling. ii) The reduction of the requirements for quarried calci carbonate through the proposed introduction of waste management and re-working of the waste for recycling in the gas cleaning process. iii) The developm of environmentally friendly applications containing contaminated and non-contaminated calcium carbonate materials. ie. to avoid land fill.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Metal labeled peptides for diagnostic imaging in cancer' (1998-2002).

assistant: **Concept**

The research project foresees the development of new molecular entities based onmetal-labeled peptides and peptidomimetics able to target with high affinity and selectivity receptor sites overexposed in human tumours. The receptors identified as the most attractive targets for the engineering of novel diagnostic tools are cholecystokinin and foliate. The new molecules will be used as diagnostic probes in nuclear medicine and magnetic resonance imaging depending upon the coordinated metal. The development of prototype contrast agents suitable for clinical diagnosis costumers in humans is the final goal.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Participation in the CMS experiment of LHC at CERN. The CMS Tracker, study of the top quark properties and search for the MSSM neutral Higgs bosons' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is one of the High Energy Physics detectors of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator of European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN). LHC will collide protons at a centre of mass energy of 14 TeV with hig h luminosity, while CMS is a collaboration of more than 160 universities and research centres of 36 countries. CMS will start its operations in June 2007 when LHC will provide data; until then, the main task will be to have the detector and the Tracker in p articular, ready for the first collisions. After that, the commissioning of the detector will begin followed by the data taking (2008). The intention of the project here presented is to participate in all these steps in order to be ready to do physics analysis with data at CMS, once the performance of the Tracker subdetector is understood. The Tracker subdetector constitutes the main tool to tag b quarks (b-tagging), the principal decay product of high mass particles in LHC. Its construction, readout and calibration will be a total challenge for the CMS collaboration and at the same time, the main device to perform the foreseen physics program. This project intends to participate in the qualification and calibration of the Tracker.The study of the top quark p roperties represents a basic reference to understand the performance of CMS and LHC, given the high cross-section of the top-antitop pair production foreseen. The objective is to begin with the study of the dileptonic channel in all its aspects, and to ext end it afterwards to the semileptonic one. The search for Higgs bosons is the last piece of the SM puzzle and its natural extension, the MSSM. The process bbH/A -> bbbb, is the most likely to happen for neutral Higgs bosons in the MSSM inside the LHC framewo

user: Explain how 'A community platform for building peace through information-driven dialogue' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

In any society that has emerged from civil conflict there is a risk of recurrence unless the underlying divisions are addressed. Peace education has been shown to promote reconciliation by developing empathy, critical thinking and moral responsibility. Various factors for building resistance to conflict have been identified as key: the provision of access to an ‘evidence base’ of balanced information; active engagement with information to familiarise users with concepts of evidence, authenticity and critical thinking; and inclusive spaces for dialogue between communities, in which reconciliation is forged through participation. We take these participatory approaches and map them into the digital sphere. While social media are widely used for participation, their potential for abuse makes them unsuitable for such dialogue. More focused platforms have emerged to support the public’s engagement with information, issues and each other, such as Ushahidi, which focuses on collecting and sharing data about unfolding situations, to involve communities in dealing with them. We will build on this software to develop a participatory platform that supports active engagement with bodies of information, allowing communities to share, organise, enhance, and reuse it, within a digital space for information-driven processes of reflection and informed, constructive dialogue. The platform will be piloted and evaluated in two countries recovering from civil conflict, Rwanda and Kenya, and the reach of the trials will be extended into areas of poor connectivity via BRCK hotspot devices. We will follow a living labs methodology based on social innovation and co-creation, involving close engagement with citizens and communities in participatory design and evaluation events throughout the proj

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Synergistic Hydrogen Assessment for Repurposed Pipelines: Integrated Multiscale-Experimental Approach for Embrittlement Risk Mitigation' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

The safe repurposing of existing natural gas pipelines for hydrogen transport is a key enabler of the EU’s decarbonization strategy. However, legacy pipeline steels are vulnerable to hydrogen embrittlement (HE), which can lead to premature fracture under service conditions. This project aims to develop a predictive, multiscale modeling framework that bridges first-principles calculations, atomistic simulations, and continuum mechanics to understand and mitigate HE in pipeline materials. Density Functional Theory (DFT) will be used to quantify hydrogen interactions at crystal defects such as vacancies, dislocations, and grain boundaries. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations will capture crack initiation and defect evolution under hydrogen exposure. These atomistic insights will be integrated into Finite Element Method (FEM) models for hydrogen diffusion and stress-assisted damage accumulation. The models will be validated against in-house bicrystal experiments involving hydrogen charging and fracture characterization. The project also emphasizes interoperability and reproducibility through open science practices. By combining computational and experimental approaches, it aims to deliver transferable parameters, validated mechanistic insights, and tools that support alloy design, risk assessment, and lifetime prediction in hydrogen infrastructure. The outcomes will be disseminated through publications, workshops, and industry-academic networks including the Clean Hydrogen Partnership. This work directly supports EU goals for climate neutrality and safe energy transitions.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Lost in Transition? Multiple Interests in Contexts of Education, Leisure and Work'.

assistant: **Innovation**

“I am going to graduate! But what exactly should I do next?” All adolescents face this question when moving to postsecondary education or early career. Essential for sustainable choices in education and career is consolidating one’s interest. Yet, exactly this step appears to be difficult, with many adolescents feeling lost, switching programmes, or regretting their choices afterwards. Where most interest research has focused on interest development within one predefined domain (e.g., science) in one context (e.g., science class), the proposed study focuses entirely on individual trajectories of interest development. The aim is to develop new theory on how an individual maintains and develops multiple interests in and across multiple contexts of participation both in and outside of education (e.g., school classes, family, offline or online peer groups in leisure time), leading to a comprehensive picture of dynamics within a person. I will investigate the effects of these dynamics on interest continuation and interest consolidation, with particular attention for the vulnerable transitions from late secondary to postsecondary education, and from late postsecondary education to early career.The study is designed as a large-scale investigation of individual trajectories of 600 adolescents, tracking longitudinally over three years, the way each adolescent spends time on existing or emerging interests in and across different contexts, and in parallel, tracking their choices in education and career. A complementary smaller-scale investigation is focused on the weighing of interests and the past and future constructions while making choices. A smartphone application called inTin was specifically designed and piloted for the proposed study, functioning as a method that triggers
