user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Natural antifungal systems for prevention of mould spoilage in bakery products' to be submitted under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Aim: lo support the EC Counc1l Directlves on Food Hygiene and Additives (93/43/EEC;95/2/EC)by examining and evaluating the impact and risks from mould spoilage due to reduced preservative usage i bakery products for human consumption and development of alternative natural/novel combinations of mould inhibitors for improving shelf-life. The proposal falls within the remit of 3.4, and 3.4.5; Food Microbiology i all the indents (1, 2, 4) in the final call for proposals under FAIR. Background and Objectives: Growth of spoilage moulds in reduced moisture bakery products ha usually been prevented by the addition of preservatives such propionic, sorbic or benzoic acids. However both legislative and consumer pressure requires a reduction in the concentrations used. Sub-optimal concentrations can result in stimulation of both growth and toxin production by moulds which can significant reduce shelf-life of bread and cakes made from wheat flour. The principle objectives of this project are t improve the quality and shelf-life of bakery products by applying low levels of natural anti-fungal food grade preservatives alone or in combination with reduced levels of traditional physical and chemic preservatives to enable additive or synergistic multi-target control systems to be developed. The work will thus address the direct effects of sub-optimal levels of existing preservative systems (propionates, sorbates and benzoates) on mould spoilage of bread and cakes, and examine the use of novel natural food preservatives such as medium chain fatty acids, natural fruit products, spice and essential oils an bacteriocins in integrated systems or as alternatives to existing ones. Studies will be concentrated specifically on bread and cakes where mould spoilage has been direct related to a decr

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Integrative Mechanisms for Addressing Spatial Justice and Territorial Inequalities in Europe' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

IMAJINE aims to formulate new integrative policy mechanisms to enable European, national and regional government agencies to more effectively address territorial inequalities within the European Union. It responds to evidence that spatial inequalities within the EU are increasing, contrary to the principle of territorial cohesion embedded as a third dimension of the European Social Model in the Treaty of Lisbon, and is particularly timely in examining the geographically differentiated impacts of the post-2008 economic crisis and the adoption of austerity policies. IMAJINE uniquely proposes to address the problem of territorial inequalities through an inter-disciplinary and multi-scalar approach that integrates perspectives from economics, human geography, political science and sociology and combines macro-scale econometric analysis and the generation and analysis of new quantitative survey data with regionally-focused qualitative empirical case study research in 11 EU member states; delivered by a multi-disciplinary and multi-national consortium. As such the research builds on the conceptual and methodological state of the art in several disciplines and advances conceptual understanding and the empirical knowledge base by producing new primary data, applying new analytical tests to secondary data and integrating the results along with insights from relational geographical theory and the concept of spatial justice. In particular, the centrality of spatial justice emphasizes the political as well as economic dimensions of territorial inequalities, and IMAJINE will move beyond existing knowledge by considering relationships between measured and perceived inequalities, models of multi-level policy-making and public service delivery, and support for territorial autonomy move

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Mercury removal from waste sources' (1994-1998) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The chloralkali industry, generating chlorine and caustic soda, still uses mercurycontaining electrochemical cells, and is historically the most important source of mercury pollution. Cleaner, non-mercury, processes are available, but mercury brine sludges are still produced, and present a serious problem. Mercury is also present in fluorescent light fittings, and discarded tubes present a pollution hazard. When tubes are collected, mercury can be recovered by distillation, condensation of mercury, and adsorption of residual mercury vapour on activated carbon, from which it must subsequently be recovered. The objective of the project is to develop a treatment unit to recover mercury from: (a) brine sludges from the chloralkali industry (b) residues from fluorescent light fittings Elemental mercury will be recovered suitable for immediate recycling, thereby reducing primary mining and extraction.The project will comprise the following RTD tasks:  1. Assessment of requirements relative to EC and national regulations on discharge of mercury.  2. Characterisation of solid residues arising from fluorescent lamps and mercury-rich brine sludges.  3. Preconcentration of mercury-bearing residues, followed by leaching of mercury.  4. Iron removal and mercury concentration using ion exchange or solvent extraction.  5. Leaching tests on residues from (3.) for further extractable mercury. 6. Immobilisation of any toxic residues from (5.).  7. Design electrochemical call for mercury recovery.  8. Design and construct integrated unit to extract mercury from mercury-rich residues, and recover as elemental mercury, using above processes.  9. Demonstrate mercury recovery unit in field trials.  10. Provide economic, technical and environmental assessment of the process.  Successful outcom

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'FOOD IQ.  Eat out knowledge on European Researchers? Night 2021' (2014-2020) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Food for Thought is a project that promotes science and scientists around the topic of healthy food in an interactive, accessible and innovative way. Our main goal is to teach residents of the Northern Netherlands, of all ages, more about healthy food, the impact of science on public health and about researchers and their profession. The project exists of three parts:Main event: Aletta’s KitchenAletta’s Kitchen is an entertaining and educational show designed to involve researchers and the audience to build a bridge between these two worlds. Named after a renowned Dutch persona of the medical field, Aletta Jacobs, the show invites multidisciplinary researchers to share their research findings connected to the topic of Food for Thought. Two different shows will be created; one as part of the education programme and one for adult residents of the region.Pre-event: Education programOur education program will teach children not only about food but also about the science of it. It is important that children know that food takes time to grow, that milk comes from a cow and a tomato grows on a plant. But also what their own food environment looks like and what food does in the body. As part of the program researchers will visit the schools to talk about their knowledge and research regarding the topic. By bringing researchers closer to the children we increase their awareness of research, creating an understanding of the impact of researchers’ work on their daily life and to encourage the pupils to embark on research careers. Installation An interactive installation facilitates accessible encounters between public health researchers and other residents of the Northern Netherlands. The visitor will gain insight into the process of knowledge development and the role of science i

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Soil bacteria as a tool for environmental clean-up of Sulfonylurea degradative intermediates', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The present research project foresees the isolation and characterization of bacterial strains that can degrade the intermediates derived from the spontaneous degradation of sulfonylurea herbicides. These compounds are the most widely used post emergent herbicide for the control of annual and perennial weeds of rice fields and they are characterized by short half lives ranging from few days to eight weeks. In fact, several sulfonylurea herbicides undergo to spontaneous degradation which occurs at high rate in enviroments like rice fields charactérized by low pH conditions. Preliminary results obtained by us with cinsulfuron, a member of sulfonylurea herbicides, have shown that spontaneous degradation gives rise to the accumulation of two major intermediates. These two molecules, whose structure has not been yet de fined and whose ecotoxicity is totally unknown, are stable and accumulate in sterile and non sterile rice field water under laboratory conditions. Mineralization or complete biodegradation of an organic molecule in water and soil is almost always a consequence of microbial activity. The work programme foresees the isolation and characterization of bacterial strains that totally convert the organic intermediates of sulfonylurea spontaneus degradation to inorganic products. Such strains will be further selected for their inability to degrade the parental compound (e.g. sulfonylurea herbicides). On the basis of the acquired knowledge, it is then foreseen to characterize bacterial strains that may be suitable for bioremediation of herbicide treated areas without affecting the efficacy of the hérbicide itself.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Resolving the nature of our deuterostome ancestor by integrating Cambrian fossils into evolutionary trees based on genomic data' (DeuterostomeOrigin), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Deuterostomes are a major group of animals that include creatures as diverse as sea stars, acorn worms, and humans. Though seeming very different, these animals have long been grouped together taxonomically and the nature of their ancient ancestor has been greatly controversial. However, new research suggests that the deuterostome grouping might be false, leaving our understanding of their evolutionary relationships and evolutionary origins in complete disarray. I propose to resolve this controversy through joint analysis of genomic data and anatomical data from living animals and exceptionally preserved fossils from the Cambrian (520 million years old) that can directly inform on the nature of ancient deuterostomes. Realising the evolutionary significance of the fossils requires we resolve their phylogenetic affinity, which can only be achieved by elucidating their fine anatomy. My proposal focuses on three groups of Cambrian deuterostome fossils, myllokunmingids, yunnanozoans, and vetulicolians, from the Chengjiang UNESCO World Heritage fossil site, which I will integrate into a holistic synthetic family tree of deuterostomes to understand how their anatomical and physiological features evolved over time. For this, I will employ multiple state-of-the-art technologies to reveal the high-resolution histological information of the fossils, including spectrometry, electron microscopy, and computed tomography. The latest methods for phylogenetic analysis and ancestral state estimation will be used to construct the evolutionary tree and infer character evolution. Together, these work packages will allow me to resolve debates on the evolutionary relationships of deuterostomes and the evolution of their disparate bodyplans. The training will help me make the transition from a

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Party Systems and Social Cleavages in the Post-Ottoman Space of the MENA Region' (CLOSER), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Chronic instability in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is linked to the difficulties political systems face in arbitrating conflicts and divisions within societies. Political parties and party systems play a crucial role in channeling social demands, articulating various political offers, and building compromises. Yet, there exists no comprehensive theoretical framework for the study of party politics in the MENA. The CLOSER project aims to address this gap using new empirical evidence, and to make a substantial contribution to the theory of social cleavages.This theory was originally developed on the basis of empirical data drawn from the West European party systems. More recently, scholars have used this approach to study party politics in other global regions, contributing to the development of general theory. So far, the MENA has been left out, partly due to the strength of culturalist prejudices inherited from the colonial era and partly to the lack of democratic experience in the region.Nevertheless, the events of recent decades have considerably enriched the empirical material available for the study of MENA party politics, and the time has come to incorporate this material into the general theory. Because social cleavages began to form during the late Ottoman Empire – and continued through the colonization and decolonization processes – we will focus on the post-Ottoman space within this region.This project brings together historians, geographers, and political scientists. Due to its interdisciplinarity, it relies on several methods in the frame of an overarching comparative methodology: archive exploration, electoral geography, electoral manifesto analysis, field interviews, and legal analysis.The main risks are related to access to the field and to rel

user: Explain how 'NCDs and their social determinants in Mediterranean partner countries:  building sustainable research capacity for effective policy intervention' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

The main purpose of RESCAP-MED is to enhance the non-communicable diseases (NCDs) research landscape in southern and eastern Mediterranean countries by (a) strengthening capacity in a set of disciplines most relevant to improving public health and reducing health inequalities, and (b) enhancing networking, cooperation, and collaboration between researchers in the Mediterranean region.  The main concept for achieving this purpose and making it sustainable is:1  the creation of a Mediterranean regional network for NCD researchers;2  the establishment of a competitive, funded fellowship programme linked to this research network.This proposal aims to enhance and, where needed, build research capacity in the region for health, its social and environmental determinants and their complex interactions, in order to inform policy development and implementation.  We concentrate on the immense challenge posed to the health systems and economies of the region by the increasing burden of NCDs.   We focus on strengthening the disciplinary capacity necessary to explain the social and environmental factors causing the rise in NCDs, and necessary to identify achievable policy outcomes and interventions.  We prioritise five disciplines in this action: epidemiology, health economics, environmental health, medical anthropology, and health policy evaluation.  These actions would create new institutional possibilities for the future, and are made more achievable because this proposal develops out of an existing FP7-funded research collaboration (MedCHAMPS, Grant number 223075) in several countries of the region, each of which is a partner in RESCAP-MED.  It thus builds directly on established and ongoing personal and institutional relationships, and the emerging evidence from MedCHAMPS. This

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Spatial evaluation and quantification of soil multifunctionality potential and actual state across Europe.'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Soils sustain a multitude of functions contributing to the provision of ecosystem services to human society. The quantification of these functions is a key prerequisite to develop sound policy intervention for their protection and enhancement, as well as to recommend adequate soil management practices to land users. In the European Union (EU), however, there is currently limited knowledge of how the supply of soil functions and their interactions differ spatially with land use type, soil characteristics, climate and management. SEQoSOIL will make the first spatially explicit and quantitative evaluation of soil multifunctionality across the countries of the EU. It will explore the current state of soil multifunctionality, but also the potential – that is, the maximum that a soil can offer based on inherent soil indicators not affected by management practices. This project proposes an ambitious and comprehensive work plan divided in four innovation objectives: i) quantify soil functions of importance, ii) their potential and state, iii) identify synergies and trade-offs between them, and iv) map this information across the EU. The functions quantified will be primary productivity, water purification and regulation, carbon storage and climate regulation, nutrient cycling and provision of habitat for biodiversity.Publicly available datasets on soil, climate and management will be analysed through a combination of well-establish statistical methods and innovative elements in an interdisciplinary approach. The expected results have the capacity to significantly increase our understanding of how the function delivery varies spatially in the EU and which functions to prioritize on different soil and land use types to optimize multifunctionality towards a desired state.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'DESign of enzyme-InspiREd multivalent catalysts through functional patterning of nanosystems'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Developing artificial enzyme mimics represents a promising strategy to overcome some of the limitations of enzymes such as low tolerance to experimental conditions, poor substrate versatility or poor adaptability to abiotic reactions. Supramolecular approaches to creating organized ensembles of molecules allowed for constructing enzyme-mimicking assemblies displaying collective properties in terms of affinity and reactivity. Despite these advances some critical challenges, such as achieving synergy between multiple functional and structural components to enhance the catalytic performance and selectivity of artificial enzyme-mimics, remain untackled. Self‐assembly of peptides on the surface of metal nanoparticles has recently emerged as a powerful strategy towards creating arrays of functional groups in a defined geometry and space. This strategy provides the opportunity to induce cooperativity between the functionalities in the assembly which would be a highly sought for property in an enzyme-mimicking system. The proposed DESIRE project aims at developing new enzyme-mimicking assemblies where a supramolecular approach is used to preorganise simple catalytic units in order to achieve enzyme-like efficiency and selectivity. The designed enzyme-inspired multivalent catalysts will be obtained by a fine-tuning involving orientation, local hydrophobicity and spatial proximity of amino acids and short peptide ligands which coated on the surface of monolayer-protected nanoparticles or embedded within functional polymers. This should allow to create hydrophobic regions decorated with catalytic moieties in the nanostructures reminiscent of the catalytic pockets in enzymes. The catalytic performance of the constructed systems will be evaluated in selected chemical transformations
