user: Draft an impact statement for 'Electrons in Fractal Geometries', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

The development of two-dimensional materials has enabled the discovery of new physical phenomena and led to the development of devices that are of crucial importance to our society. For example, we now base the definition of electrical resistance on the quantum Hall effect, a phenomenon exclusive to two dimensions. Similarly, the transistor that underpins every electronic device in use today relies on the manipulation of a two-dimensional electron gas.The realization that a material can have very different properties in two-dimensions compared to three-dimensions was a huge conceptual leap. Here, I propose a similar leap: from integer (0,1,2,3) to non-integer, or fractional, dimensions. Specifically, I will study the properties of electrons in geometric fractals with dimension between 2 and 1. Fractals are objects that are self-similar on different length scales with two unique properties (i) a non-integer dimension and (ii) expansion symmetry but no periodicity. Studying fractals will not only allow me to verify the existence of predicted exotic properties but also to address urgent questions related to the interplay of dimensionality and symmetry on the one hand and the existence of exotic states of matter (e.g. long-range entangled states, topological phases) on the other.Building on a recently published proof-of-concept, I will assemble geometric fractals atom-by-atom in a scanning tunnelling microscope. A unique advantage of this approach is that it provides control over all relevant parameters: type of fractal, its size and symmetry, the coupling strength, whether or not spin-orbit coupling and electron correlation are included, defects. My extensive experience with creating and characterising such systems makes me uniquely suited to develop the nascent field of e

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Degradation and instabilities in geomaterials with application to hazard mitigation' (DIGA).

assistant: **Concept**

Scientific exchanges of young researchers among the participating Institutions will provide them with the opportunity to deepen and widen their pre- and post-doctoral knowledge basis and skills in mathematical modeling, physical experimentation and computer-aided analysis. The majority of the proposed network participants are involved since 1992 into a European Network of Laboratories, called  ALERT Geomaterials". Accordingly special courses on natural hazards, environmental Geomechanics and Finite Element / Distinct Element methods will be given inside the framework of the existing ALERT Graduate School, which is organizing successfully annual Schools since 1992 in Centre Paul Langevin (Aussois, France - CNRS)."

assistant: **Impact**

SOPHY will develop the tools and knowledge to probe optoelectronic processes at buried interfaces, in devices, at operating conditions,  delivering a long time pursued target in many fields of nanotechnology. Semiconducting metal halide perovskites, and devices based on them, will be the primary technology under investigation, given its potential to represent the merging point between the efficient inorganic and the chameleonic organic electronics.  The presence of various types of chemical  interactions in such complex ionic solids gives them a characteristic “soft” fluctuating structure, prone to a wide set of defects which span from lattice  distortions to the presence of mobile ions. These are sensitive to the device operating conditions, thus, the control of structure-properties relationship, especially at interfaces, becomes elusive, and the prediction of device operation, necessary to engineer reliable systems, is not possible without an “in vivo” approach. SOPHY addresses the above challenge combining fundamental investigations, material processing, devices fabrication. It will understand the role of structural deformations in determining the “defectiveness” of perovskites and its link to the optoelectronic materials properties. It will put in place an experimental tool which will map in space, with a resolution below 50nm, electronic structures and their excitations, and how they evolve in time over a timescale from fs to microseconds to follow a wide set of cascade phenomena. Such approach, implemented for the first time on diodes’ cross-sections, will allow their study at different operation conditions. The broad impact of this approach will be demonstrated in a series of case studies selected from different key technologies.  Finally, SOPHY will model, for t

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Producing transnational nuclear expertise in Italy (1955-1987): a historical-ethnographic approach'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Focusing on the case of nuclear power in Cold War Italy, this research project analyses the transnsation dynamics of knowledge production involving political elites, official and unofficial scientific experts, the associative milieu, and the public sphere. It covers the period going from the beginning of Italy’s nuclear programme in the early 1950s, to the referendum of 1987 that marked the end of Italy’s nuclear programme. It investigates how Italian experts and counter-experts built their own knowledge(s) through weaving transnational links with other European countries and with the USA; how they navigated forms of public engagement to advance or challenge nuclear power programmes; and how they tried to produce and legitimate, or dismiss, alternative types of knowledge and expertise on the environmental and health risks of nuclear energy in Italy. While it focuses on an existing trend in the science and technology studies, it does so in relation to a EU country – Italy - a historical period – post-1960s - and a form of energy – nuclear - that have not yet been explored by academic studies. By adopting an interdisciplinary approach joining methods and theories from the history of technology and the STS, the project intends to enable academics and analysts to understand more fully the interactions between officials, scientists, and publics in nuclear affairs.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Development of a commercially-viable system for the automatic generation of high-throughput well defined single and double microdroplets' (AutoDropProd) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Emulsions are widely used in industries such as foods, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and chemicals. However, most of the emulsions used in the industry consist of polydisperse droplets. Emulsions of monodisperse droplets have many advantages, such as higher stability, thus longer shelf life and easier to control physical properties (e.g. viscosity or visual appearance). Small scale production of monodisperse emulsions is easily achievable using microfluidics technology. To increase the production rate of the emulsions to industrial levels and maintain droplet monodispersity, we propose to use parallelization of liquid flows with coupled flow microchips together with a fully automated droplet production system which can monitor droplet sizes and adjust flow rates to compensate for any fluctuations in the system. The next step for the system is production of monodisperse double emulsions, applicable for double drug delivery and other applications.  Commercialization of such a system would allow scientists in different laboratories (e.g. pharmacy, biology, genetics, chemistry) to simplify the monodisperse single and double droplet production procedures. At the same time, industry would benefit from the simplified monodisperse emulsion preparation, increase the efficiency and lower costs.To create such a high throughput automated system I will employ my previous experience from physics, material science and microfluidics. At the same time I will receive training inentrepreneurship from the perspective of a start-up company, increase my knowledge microfluidics system automation and learn effective business communication at the private sector. This experience and acquired knowledge will open new possibilities for me to establish myself in the industry, R&D companies or become mo

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'New permanent magnets for electric-vehicle drive applications'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The future of road transport is electric - within the foreseeable future, pure electric vehicles (EVs) will populate our roads. Vital to the success of this transition is improved, next-generation motors based on improved magnetic materials; which provide high levels of flux at elevated temperatures, while retaining resistance to reverse magnetic fields and the corrosion problems associated with running electric motors in an automotive application. Currently, these magnets are based on the rare-earth elements neodymium and dysprosium, which are predominantly mined in China (>95%). Exports are being restricted as a result of an expanding domestic market and a policy of relocating magnet manufacturing to China, thereby multiplying the costs of raw materials for magnet manufacturers in Europe. The rare-earth crisis is particularly critical for heavy rare earths such as dysprosium that are currently required to assure the high-temperature performance of magnets. MAG-DRIVE will research and develop novel microstructural-engineering strategies that will dramatically improve the properties of magnets based on light rare-earth elements, especially the coercivity, which will enable them to be used for EV applications above 100°C. These magnets will also be designed-to-recycle, with an emphasis on reducing conventional rare-earth magnets’ need for easily oxidising grain boundaries. The project will integrate these magnets into motors that have increased efficiency, with a system developed by VALEO for integration into their next generation of pure EV motor. The MAG-DRIVE project includes leading research groups from Slovenia, Serbia and the UK, together with SMEs from Slovenia and Germany and VALEO, and will deliver materials and systems with increased energy efficiency over a wi

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Genetics of Systemic lupus erythematosus in northern and southern European populations' (2007-2013) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic inflammatory disease mediated by autoantibodies, which recognize nuclear and tissue specific antigens.The aetiology of this disease is incompletely determined.  However, the risk to SLE has a significant genetic component, a conclusion supported by successful genome wide association studies (GWAS) in SLE published since 2008 - all were conducted in US-based cohorts. The variability within the“top hits” generated by each GWAS indicates the lack of power of these studies. In order to confidently define the full genetic architecture of SLE a significantly larger study will be required.  My host laboratory is leading the effort in a well-powered GWA experiment in 5,500 SLE cases, collected from Northern and  Southern Europe. First, high density SNP genotyping will be performed using Illumina Omni-Quad chip.  I will participate in the ensuing genetic associations analyses on the data generated.  Thereafter, I will make a meta-analysis of these GWAS data with the published GWAS in SLE in northern European populations and then to compare these data with the data of the southern European GWAS. We will seek replication for novel associations in additional samples available through the SLEGEN consortium. Finally I will select one novel locus in which to conduct functional studies that will help to clarify the role of the locus in SLE ethiopathogenesis.

user: Describe how 'MARItime Decision Support' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The MARIDES project is focusing on the improvement of:1) the decision making of the chartering departments of the shipping companies;2) the application and enforcement of the desired business strategy on the fleet of a shipping company by establishing a comprehensive, accurate and real-time on-board chartering process control. Current decision making in shipping and chartering procedures are rather simplistic and static, although the operations and the factors involved, including the ship itself, appear to have a dynamic nature. The aim is to optimise decisions in chartering, to quantify risk and opportunity, to handle non-deterministic factors pro-actively and thus to better support decision making in a complex and dynamic environment. MARIDES project is introducing an active knowledge based system and an underlying intranet, used to gather all the necessary information for efficient decision making support of chartering.OBJECTIVESThe MARIDES project aims to establish a comprehensive, accurate and real-time chartering process control system.The aim is to optimise decisions in chartering, to quantify risk and opportunity, to handle non-deterministic factors pro-actively and thus to better support decision making in a complex and dynamic environment.DESCRIPTION OF WORKMARIDES project relies on supporting and enhancing the chartering processes in maritime transport through the following means:- Identifying and defining the chartering process, in terms of recognising the value of all the parameters involved, both deterministic and stochastic, and the way they affect the operational research problem;- Identify information flow paths and delivery of the appropriate content to the appropriate chartering actor Support continuous and transactional decision making;- Improve the

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Nitric oxide regulation of repolarisation in the heart: role of mechanical stress' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a leading risk factor for stroke and is a growing public health burden. The condition is associated with pronounced electrical remodelling of the atria and can prove challenging to treat. A potential target for AF therapies is the repolarising potassium current IKur, carried by the atrial specific ion channel Kv1.5. This channel is not found in the ventricles and therefore provides an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of AF. In atrial myocytes isolated from patients in AF we have shown an increase in IKur, as well as a reduction in the expression of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). Inhibition of nNOS in mycoytes from patients in sinus rhythm recapitulated the AF phenotype. Kv1.5 is also modulated by mechanical stress, which has been shown to affect NO production in myocytes. We have shown that shear stress recruits Kv1.5 from an intracellular pool to the cell surface, leading to an increase in IKur. This proposal aims to investigate mechanism by which nNOS regulates IKur. We hypothesise that mechanical stress (likely modified in AF) will result in altered nNOS regulation of Kv1.5 in human myocytes. We will go on to investigate how nNOS regulation of Kv1.5 is dysregulated in AF. A multi-disciplinary approach will be used employing a) human mycoytes isolated from patients, b) an nNOS knockout (-/-) mouse and c) cardiomycoytes overexpressing GFP-Kv1.5. Whole cell currents from isolated myocytes will be measured electrophysiologically, and IKur pharmacologically dissected. A range of biochemical techniques will be employed to investigate the physical interactions between nNOS and Kv1.5. Conventional and TIRF microscopy will be used to examine the localisation of Kv1.5 and partner proteins when nNOS activity is inhibited, or wh

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Co-designing a PhysicaL Activity policy TOolkit (PLATO) with key policymakers from 27 EU member states' (PLATO), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Physical inactivity is a global problem, causing more than 5.3 million premature deaths per year worldwide. Both WHO and EU recognize the importance of public policies and recommend specific policy actions to promote physical activity (PA); however, these policies remain ineffective if they are not implemented properly. To collect data on PA policy development, different tools are currently in use; most prominently EU’s PA Monitoring Framework. However, there is a lack of knowledge on how to use PA policy monitoring as a lever to impact policymaking to reduce inactivity.This fellowship aims to co-design a toolkit for improving the impact of PA policy monitoring on national policymaking. As I have an interdisciplinary research profile with a dissertation in political science and a track record in PA policy research, I am in an excellent position to advance the state of the art by (1) co-assessing the impact of PA policy monitoring on the policy-making process, (2) comparatively mapping PA policy monitoring tools based on political science theory and (3) co-designing a PA policy toolkit with key policymakers from all 27 EU member states.My host team at the University of Limerick has a high expertise in PA policy research and recently led the development of a new tool for PA policy monitoring. I will have access to training programmes that enhance my interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary skills, e.g. with regards to the co-production of knowledge. I will also gain relevant insights into PA policymaking in Ireland (secondment at a government agency) and Europe (non-academic placement at WHO).As WHO is tasked to coordinate data collection within the EU PA Monitoring Framework, this is an ideal opportunity to exploit the results of the fellowship.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Microbially enhanced geologic carbon capture, trapping and storage (CO2TRAP)' (CO2TRAP) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide, also known as carbon capture and storage (CCS), is one strategy to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases generated through the combustion of fossil fuels. Geologic sequestration of CO2 involves the injection of supercritical CO2 into underground brine formations such as oil bearing formations, deep un-mineable coal seams, and deep saline aquifers.Sites where CO2 is stored could be closed and responsibility transferred with lower risk, higher confidence, thus greater insurability, if technologies existed that: i) would hasten the rate of CO2 trapping so long term stability could be reached in decades rather than centuries and ii) if rock formations could be sealed near wells, to prevent leakage through degraded steel and concrete in the closed injection well.Previous work by the fellow (Mitchell et al., 2008, 2009, 2010) has demonstrated such technology – via carbonate mineral forming bacteria and biofilms in the subsurface. Here, we have shown that carbonate mineral forming microorganisms and biofilms can enhance CCS via solubility-trapping, mineral-trapping, and CO2(g) leakage reduction. Such work has however, been performed under low pressure conditions for a simple brine composition.The CO2TRAP project aims to develop this green-technology further to address these knowledge gaps. We will;(i)Investigate the effectof brine composition on the biomineralization process(ii)Determine the effect of pressure on the biomineralization process(iii)Determine the stability of carbonate minerals to SC-CO2 / brine mixtures under reservoir conditionsThese data will enhance the EU’s ability to develop energy efficient, low carbon water and air treatment technologies through the 21st century for a long term environmentally sustainable future
