user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Theory, Computation and Application of Characteristics Modes'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The proposal focuses on Theory of Characteristic Modes(TCM), a reasonably general methodology to systematically design and analyse arbitrary antennas in wireless communication systems by providing accurate physical insights of the working mechanism. With the rise of the diverse and complex requirements of modern antenna systems, the existing TCM is not sufficiently effective to handle critical design problems such as multi-scale vehicular antenna systems and large-scale massive MIMO base station arrays, which leads to an urgent need for further improvement of TCM. Firstly, for the theoretical aspect, with the help of volume integral equations and appropriate basis functions, characteristic modes(CMs) of inhomogeneous anisotropic dielectric bodies based on the method of moments will be extracted for the first time. The novel theory will be used to design practical antennas coated by the inhomogeneous anisotropic materials. Secondly, concerning CM computation, CMs are planned to be established on special non-uniform meshes through an effective Discontinuous Galerkin method. The novel strategy is fully dependent on the detailed features of the physical structure and scales of the target, which will lead to a wider range of targeted applications. Finally, for the application aspect, quasi-entire domain basis functions will be constructed based on specific CMs of an arbitrary antenna element in the array to enhance the efficiency of electromagnetic computation for extremely large-scale periodic arrays without loss of accuracy. Through the strict execution of the jointly conceived career development plan, the fellow's competencies will be enhanced in all aspects during the project, including leadership and cooperation skills, teaching and supervisory skills, professional netw

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Miniaturized smart system for light stimulation and monitoring of wound healing' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Chronic wounds represent a significant burden to patients, health care professionals, and health care systems, affecting over 40 million patients and creating costs of approximately 40 billion € annually. Goal of the project is the fabrication of a medical device for professional wound care. The device will use recently proven therapeutic effects of visible light to enhance the self-healing process and monitor the status and history of the wound during therapy. Light exposure in the red part of the spectrum (620-750nm) induces growth of keratinocytes and fibroblasts in deeper layers of the skin. The blue part of the spectrum (450–495nm) is known to have antibacterial effects predominantly at the surface layers of the skin. In order to be compliant with hygiene requirements the system will consist of two parts: 1. a disposable wound dressing with embedded optical waveguides and integrated sensors for the delivery of light and monitoring (temperature and blood oxygen) of the wound. 2. a soft and compliant electronic module for multiple use containing LEDs, a photodiode, a controller, analog data acquisition, a rechargeable battery, and a data transmission unit. Both parts of the device will be interconnected by a mechanically robust plug, enabling a low loss coupling of light into the waveguide structures and electrical interconnection to the sensors. The status of the wound will be monitored with temporal and low level spatial resolution. The electronic module will be optimized for functionality and user comfort, combining leading edge heterogeneous integration technologies (PCB embedding) and stretchable electronics approaches. The detailed effects of light-exposure schemes will be explored and backed by in-vitro and in-vivo animal studies. Results will be used to devel

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Development of novel composite material for safety helmets, boat hulls and lifeboat containers that has self-repairing and visual inspection features' (LAPI) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Our idea is to develop the novel composite material that contains microencapsulated polymer spheres containing coloured resins. These spheres will provide direct visual inspection possibilities as after impact the surface of the composite will change the colour depending on the severity of the impact. This composite material possesses also self-repairing feature for due to impact these shells containing different resins will broke and disengaged substance will rapidly repair damages of composite material.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Embodied Cognitive Neuromorphic Technology' (ECogNeT).

assistant: **Concept**

Biological neuronal networks allow humans and animals to build representations of objects, complex scenes, and temporal sequences and to use these representations to plan and execute goal-directed actions, learn new skills, and constantly adapt to changing situations.   Neuronal systems have evolved to be extremely powerful in perceiving and acting in complex and dynamic real-world environments. The field of neuromorphic engineering is realising neuronal computation in a new generation of hardware systems, aiming to enable computation with high efficiency and low energy cost, comparable to biological neuronal networks. In order to use this hardware to implement systems that can solve perceptual, motor, and cognitive tasks, cognitive architectures have to be developed, which integrate elementary cognitive processes in a coherent computational framework.  The ECogNeT project aims to develop such a computational framework by realising neural-dynamic models of  embodied cognition in neuromorphic hardware. In particular, the computational and conceptual framework of Dynamic Neural Fields will be used to create cognitive computational primitives in neuromorphic hardware, which will organise the hardware  neurons in attractor-networks, capable to generate discrete, cognitive representations from sensory inputs. The developed neuromorphic cognitive architecture will be integrated with sensors and motors of a robotic agent  and its capability to represent environmental situations and temporal sequences of events will be validated in benchmark scenarios, exploiting the potential of this new technology in development of  novel, low-power, fast, and smart devices capable to work in real-world settings in order to advance future prosthetic systems, smart environments, and assistive

user: Describe how 'Study of the role of protein posttranslational modification by SUMO (Small Ubiquitin-like MOdifier) in abscisic acid signaling and stress responses in plants' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Eukaryotic protein function is regulated in vivo by diverse mechanisms such as protein turnover, regulation of protein activity, localization and protein-protein interactions. These mechanisms involve constitutive or reversible post-translational modifications of specific amino-acid residues in the target protein by molecules of different nature. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like modifiers are polypeptides that are covalently attached to a lysine residue in the target protein. SUMO is a member of the ubiquitin family, but it differs from ubiquitin in its cellular function. Whereas protein ubiquitination results in degradation by the 26S proteasome, sumoylation is involved in regulation of protein activity, cellular localization, or protection from ubiquitination. In plants, SUMO plays an important role in biotic and abiotic stress responses, and regulates abscisic acid (ABA) signaling, plant hormone that mediates environmental stress responses, and flowering. In addition, we have found that a functional sumoylation system is essential during seed development, process that is also regulated by ABA at different stages. Our general goal is to investigate the biological role of SUMO in the context of ABA signaling and stress responses in Arabidopsis. For this purpose we will study different aspects of this novel posttranslational regulatory system involving the analysis of the SUMO biological role during seed development and germination, identification of new SUMO targets and dissection of the biological role of the catalase AtCAT3 sumoylation, and the study of molecular factors that could be responsible for recognition of SUMO conjugates. The data generated will contribute to better understanding of this biological process and, eventually, to a thoughtful design of plants with

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Revolutionising the world of hemodialysis with a novel, hybrid, silk fibroin/polyurethane vascular access'.

assistant: **Concept**

Vascular access is the bottleneck to long-term hemodialysis for about 2.2 million people worldwide who need this life-saving/life-sustaining therapy in case of renal failure, e.g. as a consequence of diabetes and/or hypertension. The current alternatives of vascular access suffer in fact from several limitations, e.g. the need for frequent and costly re-interventions, reduced patency, infective complications.To meet this urgent, global, clinical need, BEL proposes SAG (Silkothane® Arteriovenous Graft), an innovative, hybrid, semidegradable, nanostructured vascular access, manufactured by electrospinning using Silkothane®, a silk fibroin/polyurethane blend developed and trademarked by BEL under the auspices of a MSCA action. Enabling early cannulation and easy placement, as well as remodeling, patency, and integration on the long term, SAG will revolutionize the scenario of hemodialysis vascular accesses worldwide by: reducing the frequency of complications and re-interventions (thus health costs); granting broader access to hemodialysis; improving the patients’ quality of life, enabling them to live longer as functioning members of the society.SAG has reached TRL 6. Phase 1 would allow BEL to verify the soundness of SAG’s venture (with a Business Plan and anIP Management Plan), and to de-risk the technological viability of the industrialization (delivering Essential Requirements, Risk Analysis, Validation Master Plan, Industrialization Plan), in view of future clinical studies, certification and commercialization. SAG represents for BEL an important opportunity to diversify its product portfolio, enter the market of Advanced Materials, experience growth in productivity and competitiveness and create new jobs. As the commercial potential of SAG is estimated to be around

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'POLiN: the POlitical conditions of Interoperability in European digital health policies' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

The POLiN project’s aim is to explore the political condition of interoperability in European digital health policies. ‘Interoperability’ refers to the ability of computer systems to work together, even if they are created by different business or state organizations. Interoperability standards are key to the creation of efficient digital health infrastructures, in particular at the European level. For instance, Electronic Health Records are expected to be available everywhere in the European Union, flowing within a harmonized ‘European Health Data Space’. If the technical conditions of interoperability have been extensively explored, little is known about the political conditions under which various actors pursuing complex agendas may be willing to adopt common standards. Indeed, standard selection in digital health is guided by many different industrial, medical, political, legal, and ethical considerations. Therefore, the aim of this project is to explore the political conditions favoring or impeding the adoption of interoperability standards in EU digital health. As digital cooperation marks a turning point for the future of EU integration, this proposal will contribute to open a new research agenda, aiming to explore how the EU is able to govern through project cooperation. Furthermore, interoperability choices reflect highly sensitive and political decisions which are not trivial and are likely to deeply transform the lives of EU citizens. This project therefore intends to contribute to the adoption of better, inclusive digital health standards. This MSC fellowship will be key in strengthening my skills in European studies, as I will be guided by a renowned expert in European decision-making processes, Prof. Stephanie Novak.

user: Explain how 'Forecasting and Monitoring Economic Indicators' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Forecasting and monitoring key economic variables is one of the main activities of financial and government institutions, forecasting agencies, and investment companies. In the ERC-funded starting grant (ERC-2007-StG: Change-Point Tests) we developed novel models and tests for forecasting key economic indicators (such as economic activity, financial volatility and others) as well as evaluating the reliability of model predictions. In many cases our methods improve upon the current-state-of-art. The idea of this ERC Proof of Concept (PoC) grant is to use these novel models and tests to develop a software/toolbox that forecasts and monitors economic indicators. Most available forecasting software lack real-time monitoring and predictive breakdown tests which are important for reliable forecasts especially in periods of instability. Our forecasting and monitoring toolbox can improve the reliability of forecasts as follows: (1) using a novel family of models and high frequency information (2) monitoring forecasts in real-time (3) using new predictive tests of potential breakdowns. Such economic forecasts are at the heart of economic decision making made by governments, Central Banks, and firms that are potential users of our toolbox. In this ERC PoC we will initially work with a forecasting agency and a Central Bank, given contacts have already been established, in order to examine various aspects of the development of this toolbox such as: building a user-friendly software, developing a three-dimensional graphical representation of the monitoring and predictive breakdown tests, and generally making our new methods accessible to decision makers. The overall objective of this ERC PoC grant is to provide a software with innovative techniques that can improve economic forecast

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Topological Representation of MV-algebras' (TopRepMVAlg) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Many-valued logics were first considered by J. Łukasiewicz in 1920. MV-algebras were introduced by C.C.Chang in 1958 to prove the completeness theorem for infinite-valued Łukasiewicz logic. In the last 25 years the importance of MV-algebras and Łukasiewicz logic has been increasing, for three main reasons: (i) the discovery of a categorical equivalence between MV-algebras and lattice-ordered Abelian groups with an Archimedean unit; (ii) the deep relations between MV-algebras and polyhedral and toric geometry: suffice to say that the strong Oda conjecture is equivalent to the joint refinability of MV-algebraic bases; (iii) the applications of many-valued logic to the treatment of uncertain information, e.g., in the Rényi-Ulam game of Twenty Questions with errors, i.e., Berlekamp’s theory of feedback error-correcting coding; remarkably enough, the tautology problem of infinite-valued logic is coNP-complete, precisely as its two-valued counterpart.The overall aim of this project is the application of techniques from algebraic topology,  polyhedral geometry and functional analysis to the study of the fine structure of MV-algebras and the deductive-algorithmic theory of Łukasiewicz logic. The minimization problem for finitely axiomatized theories and the characterization of projective MV-algebras and its application to unification theory in Łukasiewicz logic, are just two challenging problems, with ramifications to various mathematical areas. These problems will be investigated by refined techniques arising from MV-algebraic representation theory.  The basic methodology has been introduced in the applicant’s joint papers with the researcher in charge, published (or to appear) in   Communications in Contemporary Mathematics, Forum Mathematicum, Algebra Universalis,  Journal o

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Intracranial COnnection with Neural Networks for Enabling Communication in Total paralysis' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

iCONNECT aims to give severely paralyzed people the means to communicate by merely imagining to talk or make hand gestures. Imagining specific movements generates spatiotemporal patterns of neuronal activity in the brain which I intend to record and decode with an intracranial Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) system. Many people suffer from partial or full loss of control over their body due to stroke, disease or trauma, and this will increase with population ageing. With both duration and quality of life beyond 60 increasing in the western world, more and more people will suffer from the consequences of function loss (mostly stroke) with the prospect of living for decades with the handicap, and will stand to benefit from restorative technology that has yet to be developed. I believe that functionality can be restored with brain implants. My goal is to develop a BCI that can interpret activity patterns on the surface of the brain in real-time. For this we need to discover how the brain codes for (imagined) actions, how codes can be captured and decoded and how an intracranial BCI system impacts on a user. I will use state of the art techniques (7 Tesla MRI and electrocorticography, ECoG) to explore brain codes and develop decoding strategies. Interactions between user and implanted device will be studied in paralyzed people. I will directly link decoded movements to animated visual feedback of the same body part, expecting to induce a feeling of ownership of the animation, and thereby a sense of actual movement. This research is only possible because of the latest developments in imaging of human brain activity, machine learning techniques, and micro systems technology. My lab is unique in bringing together all these techniques. Success of the project will lead to deeper
