user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Eye-hand coordination in space and time' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Loss of arm function can have a severe impact on a patient’s life and results in a loss of productivity. As a remedy, scientists are currently developing brain-machine interfaces, which ultimately would allow patients to control a cybernetic arm by thought, through signals recorded from the brain. Even though many basic real-life situations, such as interacting with other people and navigating traffic, require movement coordination in both space and time, surprisingly little is known about how the brain simultaneously controls both these aspects of a movement. This limitation is fueled by the difficulty of extracting signatures of spatial and temporal control from behavioral or neural signals. There is a need for a new paradigm that allows for the systematic examination of interceptive timing and positioning in isolation. In EYEHAND, I will develop and use such a paradigm for in depth investigation – using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) – of the neural basis of eye-hand coordination in space and time. This work will ultimately contribute to neurorehabilitation through improvements of brain machine interfaces and to the development of novel training tasks.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Biometric Identification Security System' (BISS).

assistant: **Innovation**

Increased security, reduced risk of fraud and added comfort are some of the key benefits of biometric recognition. Users no longer need to worry about numerical codes being stolen through spying, passwords being hacked or keys, codes and cards being exchanged without authorisation. Having to carry identification media with you at all times and protect it against theft has become a thing of the past. Simple log-in via user verification, 1:1 comparison for laptops and mobile phones, and identity checks at border c ontrol are well-known identification methods in use all over the world. However, our project focuses on a significantly more complex method of identification. All authorised persons have to be clearly and securely identified as quickly as possible from a group of several thousand possible candidates (1:10.000) without any further information. The identification process then has to trigger a chain of actions, which is particularly important for those people with so-called ""problematic fingers"" (small, torn). Precise biometric recognition is often hindered by factors such as faint lines, scar tissue, abrasion, sweat or dirt on the finger, and inconsistencies in the recording process. The objective is therefore to launch a universal biometric identification system for companies, associations and organisations with a large number of employees or sites. Such a system must enable an employee's biometric fingerprint to be clearly identified from all other employees' data. At the same time, it must also prevent unauthorised persons from attempting to match biometric data, no matter what form such an attempt should take or how often it is carried out. In a bid to increase acceptance and adoption rates, the solution not only has to meet all security requirements, it als

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Deciphering central role of VMH circuits in regulating energy balance' (VMHCIRCUITS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Incidence of obesity has been steadily increasing for the last few decades. A corresponding rise in the obesity associated co-morbidities such as cardiovascular diseases and type-2 diabetes makes it an acute priority to understand the mechanisms underlying body weight regulation. It is well established that distributed brain circuits tightly monitor and regulate energy stores. Of particular interest, electrical and pharmacological manipulations to ventromedial portion of the hypothalamus (VMH), results in dramatic alterations in food intake, adiposity and glucose homeostasis in animal models. Furthermore, human genetic screens have shown that, at least for a subset of morbidly obese patients, genes that are heavily expressed in VMH are altered. Collectively these observations point to a central role for VMH in driving negative energy balance, yet relatively little is known how VMH neurons achieve this. To identify novel mechanisms for controlling energy balance, we propose to determine the following: 1) identify signals that regulate VMH neuronal activity, this includes synaptic input as well as circulating signals, 2) dissect out immediate downstream and upstream synaptic targets of VMH neurons mediating food intake and glucose homeostasis. To achieve this, we will use state of the art neuronal circuit mapping techniques involving virus based retrograde tracers and optogenetics. By combining functional electrophysiology and morphological approaches we will determine brain regions that has connections to and from VMH and evaluate behavioral and physiological significance each of these connections in-vivo. Understanding the basics of the functional VMH-wiring diagram will help determine how these neuronal circuits change under the conditions of metabolic and feeding diso

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Excited States in Molecules and Solids. Interplay between Experiment and Theory' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The possibilities to perform theoretical studies of excited states in molecular systems have undergone a revolutionary development during the last ten years. New methods have been developed and have been used in a large variety of applications. As a result today it is possible to perform accurate quantum chemical studies of the properties of excited states for a large variety of molecular systems ranging from organic molecules to transition metal complexes and biochemical systems. This development has created substantial interaction between theoretical chemists and experimental groups in electronic spectroscopy, photochemistry, magnetism, etc. The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers from both experimental and theoretical field and both from academia and industry. This will permit the interchange of information about the new developments in the field of excited states and their possibilities in different areas of electronic spectroscopy and photochemistry.The conference will cover the following topics:- New theoretical methods for the study of excited states;- Spectroscopy and magnetic properties in organic and in coordination chemistry;- Spectroscopy and magnetic properties of solids;- Mechanisms of photochemical reactions;- Spectroscopy and photochemistry in bio-organic molecules Contributions by invited speakers will cover these aspects. Poster sessions will be organized to allow the effective participation of all people attending the conference.ftp://ftp.cordis.lu/pub/improving/docs/HPCF-1999-00057-1.pdf

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'In utero transmission of HIV-1 : regulation and selection via the placenta' (1994-1998) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

To investigate various mechanisms involved in transplacental route, as well as the intracellular and extracellular mechanisms regulating HIV-1 vertical transmission, in an effort to explain why the transmission rate is only partial, and the reasons for such a variation between various pandemia area, as well as the role of maternal viral load, the synergistic role of placental trophoblast cells and maternal antibodies in the transmission and/or selection of HIV-1 variants from mothers to their infants.As the number of HIV+ individuals increases, so does the transmission of HIV-1/HIV-2 from mothers to infants. Albeit the most common contamination occur during delivery, in utero transmission also occurs and might be related to a more severe and rapid progression of the disease in about 20% of infected children. Our groups are focusing on the role of maternal viral load, synergistic role of placental trophoblast cells and maternal antibodies in the transmission and/or selection of HIV-1 variants from mothers to their infants. For this purpose, we have set up a cohort of infected mothers in Cameroon, as well as sample collection in France, Italy. and Greece. The French cohort comprises 10 transmitting mothers and 10 non transmitting mothers, the infectious state of the children being defined by PCR, virus isolation and a clinical follow up of two years. The Italian group of HIV-1 infected mothers, 5 transmitting mothers and 5 non transmitting mothers, the infectious state of the children was defined by PCR and virus isolation at least at two consecutive time points. Finally, we are establishing a cohort of seropositive pregnant women from Cameroon (now half way ), and we collect/prepare on site maternal blood/serum in early, intermediate and late pregnancy, ester) delivery m

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Valorising and balancing the ecosystem service benefits offered by legumes, and legume-based cropped systems'.

assistant: **Concept**

The legumES will ensure: 1, the uptake of best practices in agrobiodiverse legume-based cropped systems; 2, the uptake of methodologies and tools to quantify and balance the environmental and economic ecosystem service (ES) benefits provided by legumes; 3, that the ES benefits and cost offered by legumes are quantified across scales from field, farm, regional, national, and global levels; and 4, ES will be assessed to identify those conditions which are able to meet the EU targets: to decrease agrichemical inputs and losses, combat climate change, reverse biodiversity loss, and ensure the best nutritional provisioning. To achieve this, legumES offers a multi-disciplinary consortium comprising 22 partners from 12 EU- and third countries (UK, CH) and including: 7, academic institutions; 6, Research and Technology Organizations; 5, SMEs (or micro-SMEs); 2, non-governmental organisations; and 2, large commercial companies. The individuals comprising legumES offer skills which include: agricultural-crop and -environment (ES) monitoring, life cycle assessment, economic- and socioeconomic-modelling, social-science, EU-agricultural and environmental policy, and law, plus decision support systems. The legumES research and innovation strategy centres on the use of a multiactor action-research approach, that is, where legume-facing stakeholders, and especially producers though all value chains actors, can ‘operate’, ‘collaborate’ and, reflect critically’ on the measured ES benefits and costs of legume-based cropped systems, including legumes use in marginal lands; so that an optimal balance of ES can be achieved with success locally, and globally. To help achieve this LegumES also centres activities on a suite of 25 innovative legume-based Pilot Studies which use a wide range of l

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Quantum-oriented Update to Browsers and Infrastructures for the PQ Transition'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The exciting frontiers opened by the development of quantum computers (QC) come at the cost of breaking the foundations of current digital security. The research community is working to the definition of post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to counteract this threat. However, the transition to PQC is delicate and takes time because it impacts many functions, algorithms, and protocols in a-priori unknown cascade of dependencies. QUBIP is conceived to contribute to the EU transition to PQC with the goal of simplifying and making replicable the process by means of recommended practices and counteract post-quantum threats as soon as possible. QUBIP focuses on digital infrastructure addressing the 5 main building blocks that use public-key cryptography for security purposes: hardware, cryptographic libraries, operating system, communication protocols and applications. QUBIP address all 5 blocks coherently solving all dependency issues that may arise inside each block and among blocks with the final aim to validate at TRL6 three infrastructures making use of those blocks in IoT-based Digital Manufacturing, Internet Browsing, and Software Networks Environments for Telcos use cases. The return-of-experience from the three practical exercises is then maximized by developing a migration playbook, that will contain the lessons learned and an evaluation of all the technical, economic, and legal barriers encountered together with the solutions to overcome them to enable the definition of a replicable process, suitable to provide structured accompanying and practical guidance to industrial stakeholders. The technical activities are corroborated by three supporting activities (i) evaluation of the capabilities of QCs to assess their implication to primitives, algorithms and protocols adopt

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'A NEW DEFINITION OF CONSCIOUSNESS' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The study of consciousness is considered one of the final frontiers in science. After centuries of introspection, philosophy, and psychology it is thought that neuroscience will now answer the age-old questions like who is conscious, when, and what of. This will take more, however, than the current approach of finding the  neural correlate of consciousness  (NCC). We need a new science of consciousness.  What is the problem? Behaviour is considered the gold standard of consciousness: when someone says he is conscious, he is, and when he says not, he isn t.  But it is impossible to reliably gauge the presence or absence of conscious sensations from behaviour. We will always conflate consciousness with cognitive functions enabling the report, such as attention, working memory or language. Finding  the  NCC is doomed to fail.  Instead, arguments from neuroscience should be allowed to reshape the definition of consciousness. Behavioural or introspective ideas may be a starting point, but ultimately, neural arguments should be allowed to overrule behavioural evidence.   I will show how a new neuro-behavioural definition of consciousness can dissociate consciousness from cognition, explains key features of conscious experience, and allows us to understand consciousness at a much more fundamental level. Experiments in man and monkey will test essential predictions of the new definition of consciousness, using techniques such as intracortical recording, EEG, fMRI and pharmacological intervention, combined with psychophysics, learning paradigms or manipulations of consciousness. If these confirm the idea, the new definition of consciousness should be adopted.  This means we are in for a change. The new definition of consciousness will move our notion of mind towards that of brai

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Psychotic Symptoms in Dementia' (NIPID).

assistant: **Concept**

Background: The current estimate for the number of people with dementia in Europe is 5 million, and for the world, 24.3 million, with an estimated 4.6 million new cases every year. 30% to 50% of the people suffering from Alzheimer's Disease have psychotic symptoms. Psychotic symptoms in dementia include delusions and hallucinations.These symptoms are seen as rooted in the biological changes that cause dementia and are usually treated with anti-psychotic medication. An alternative approach to the bio-medical approach is the social-environmental approach (Cohen-Mansfield, 2003), which analyzes psychotic symptoms in dementia relative to the interaction between the person's cognitive limitations and the physical and social environment.Despite the anecdotal support for this theory, no studies have been done which have investigated psychotic symptoms from an environmental/psychosocial perspective and the applicability of this model is still unknown.Specific Aims:- Identification of psycosocial and environmental factors that seem to trigger or contribute to the manifestations of psychotic symptoms in dementia, and estimation of their relative prevalence.- Development of a set of non-pharmacological interventions based on the factors identified in aim #1.- A pilot-test of the feasibility and the efficacy of non-pharmacological interventions for psychotic symptoms in dementia.Importance: This study will provide a greater understanding of psychotic symptoms in persons with dementia and lay the groundwork for an intervention study in which non-pharmacological interventions will be used instead of psychoactive medications.By enhancing the understanding of these symptoms and potentially decreasing the negative side-effects associated with psychotropic medication, t his study has the

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Thematic Network on e-logistics/e-fulfilment' (E-THEMATIC), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

e-Thematic addresses the area of e-Logistics and, especifically e-Fulfilment. In comparison with the USA, European companies lag behind in their migration towards e-Logistics. In view of the fact that public physical and data infrastructures, which are one of the foundations of enterprise logistics, supersede the competencies of private companies and even national governments, this competitive gap cannot be closed on a company or even on a national level. The objectives of the e-Thematic network are to cluster existing European RTD projects, to identify emerging applications and technologies, to enhance the exchange of data and information on a European level, incl. good practices, to formulate views on common European RTD-approaches and to create synergy and added value for European research related to e-Logistics and e-Fulfilment.Objectives:The main objectives of the e-Thematic network are to cluster existing European RTD projects, to identify emerging applications and technologies, to enhance the exchange of data and information on a European level between all relevant partners from industry and Member States and to create synergy and added value for European research related to e-Logistics and e-Fulfilment. Furthermore, e-Thematic will stimulate the development and implementation of innovative concepts and will identify and introduce user focused innovations throughout the life of the project with a view to furthering e-business in the area of logistics and enhancing the competitiveness of EU industry. e-Thematic aims also at generating a European RTD-strategy in the area of e-logistics/e-fulfilment which could be used as an input for the 6th FP.Work description:A Steering Committee will be created which will serve as a forum to discuss the specific objectives and m
