user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Highly sensitive and specific low-cost lab-on-a-chip system for Lyme disease diagnosis' (HILYSENS) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The aim of HILYSENS is to develop a novel lab-on-chip diagnostic tool to improve clinical diagnostic, disease monitoring and treatment of Lyme Disease by enabling specific and sensitive detection of the human serological response against its causative agent Borrelia burgdoferi infections. Lyme Disease is the most common tick-borne infection in Europe with around 85,000 new cases per year and its incidence is increasing due to climate change. Current laboratory diagnostic methods lack sensitivity and specificity to detect early cases as well as late manifestations of the disease such as chronic or autoimmune-related infections. For this reasons, disease incidence is underestimated as many cases go mis- or undiagnosed. Late, delayed, or inadequate treatment can lead to serious symptoms such as neuroborreliosis or arthritis, which can be disabling and difficult to treat. HILYSENS will develop a specific multi-antigen assay in a lab-on-a-chip device to detect Borrelia infections. HILYSENS will provide a compact and robust lab-on-chip system, designed to work with small volumes and without the need of expert operators. This tool together with a portable reader and user-friendly software will enable more precise, accurate and reproducible testing making it possible to become the standard tool for the disease diagnosis. A novel production approach for the lab-on-a-chip will be developed which will enable to target really low mass-production costs, overcoming one of the main issues of the lab-on-a-chip technology and opening great market opportunities for the participant SMEs. Sensitive and reliable patient diagnosis provided by HILYSENS device will optimise resources available to medical practitioners, heavily reducing the current costs of the disease, increasing profitability

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Towards Submarine Landslides and Their Consequences' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The last decade has witnessed a boom in offshore infrastructures, including not only oil and gas platforms and submarine pipelines due to the shift of energy exploration from onshore to offshore but also offshore wind farms, offshore electricity grid infrastructure, and submarine communication cables and routes. This boom significantly enhances the importance of the estimation of potential submarine landslides and their consequences. It is true that submarine landslides may have a unexpectedly long travel distance and damage infrastructure thousands of kilometers away. However numerical modelling of the entire process of submarine landslides is a long-standing challenge. In addition to constitutive models for describing both solid-like and fluid-like behaviour of sediments, it requires also advanced numerical approaches capable of tackling extremely large deformation experienced by materials as well as interactions between structures, seawater, and sediments. This project is motivated by these challenges and aims to develop innovative continuum models and numerical approaches for simulating submarine landslides and their consequences. A unified mixed Lagrangian finite element formulation will be derived for handling solid mechanics (infrastructure), fluid dynamics (seawater), and poromechanics (sediments). Viscoeplastoplastic constitutive models will be developed for capturing the solid-fluid transitional behaviour of sediments. The proposed formulation and models will be implemented on a high performance computing based numerical platform within the framework of the particle finite element method for fully coupled analyses of submarine landslides. The intended outcome is a computational tool that can simulate the complete process of real-world submarine landslides, ran

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'European Campaign ¿Fascination of Light¿' to be submitted under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The interactive travelling exhibition 'Fascination of Light' which has been developed and displayed very successfully in Germany during the past two years will be put on a European level and will be presented in at least nine major European regions / cities, organised by partner institutions of the consortium LASERLAB EUROPE with additional support from the NEMO Network of Excellence on Micro-Optics. The exhibition is based on a multidisciplinary approach where photonics and their pervasiveness in every-day life can be actively experienced through interactive, hands-on exhibition pieces, illustrative material and multimedia stations, functional models, visual aids, posters and simple experiments, which may provide inspirations for teaching. The overall aims of the project are - to foster public understanding of science and technology related to IST and photonics;- to raise awareness for the practical, societal and occupational potential of (photonics-based) ICT;- to stimulate educational initiatives and provide educational support related to IST and photonics; - to contribute to a highly qualified (next-generation) workforce in photonics-related science, research and development,- to provide a platform for the visibility of the host institutions within their specific European regions and their general importance to the society.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Salmonella enterica abortusovis is able during the infection to hide itself to the host immune system using unknown mechanisms', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Abortion in sheep due to Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica serovar Abortusovis is an important animal health problem in areas of the Mediterranean, where the sheep industry has a significant economy impact. The pathogen is host restricted to ovines where it invades the intestinal epithelium and causes a systemic infection that often goes undetected, until it manifest as an abortion. In animals that are not pregnant, there are no overt signs of disease, suggesting that the organism can evade detection by the innate immune system during invasion, but the underlying mechanisms are currently unknown. The long-term goal of this study is to elucidate mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of S. Abortusovis infection. Our central hypothesis is that S. Abortusovis prevents recognition through Toll-like receptors, which renders the host unable to control infection before pathogens reach the uterus and cause abortions. We will contrast S. Abortusovis to a closely related pathogen, S. enterica serovar Typhimurium , whose invasion of the intestinal epithelium is detected by the innate immune system, resulting in overt signs of disease associated with intestinal inflammation. Aim 1, we will determine whether S. Abortusovis evades recognition by TLR5 during invasion of the intestinal epithelium. Aim 2, we will determine whether S. Abortusovis evades recognition by TLR4 during its persistence in tissue macrophages. The proposed studies will take an innovative approach that links clinical observations to molecular virulence mechanisms. By establishing these connections, our studies are to demonstrate that innate immune evasion is a S. Abortusovis-specific virulence mechanism that can explain S. Abortusovis infection in sheep differs drastically from gastroenteritis caused by S.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Small Differences, Big Impact: Achieving Effective Selective Separations from Water by Tuning Ion Transport Processes' (ION-TRACE) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Selective ion separation plays a crucial role in Selective ion separation plays an important role in water treatment, resource recovery, and agriculture. As the need for sustainable water use intensifies and global demand for strategic resources like lithium increases, developing efficient and selective ion separation technologies becomes essential. In particular, the selective separation of ions with similar properties, such as sodium (Na+) and potassium (K+), remains a significant challenge.In the ION-TRACE project, I aim to overcome this challenge by developing innovative separation processes. My approach involves pioneering electro-driven processes, including Battery Deionization (BDI) combined with Concentration-Dependent Switching (CDS) and Electrochemical Ion Pumping (EIP). These processes take advantage of differences in ion adsorption and desorption dynamics to separate two similar ions.The methodology of this project focuses on understanding ion transport mechanisms, which create specific time differences in ion adsorption and desorption, and identifying strategies to optimize these mechanisms to reach the operational ""sweet spot."" First, I will demonstrate that even a limited selectivity of robust materials can be sufficient to achieve highly efficient ion separation. Next, I will tune the process through the introduction and modification of ion-selective electrodes and membranes, modifications to material structure, and optimizations of process configurations. Synthesized materials will be studied in detail to assess their stability, selectivity, and transport properties under varying experimental conditions, including salinity, pH, presence of complex ion mixtures, and applied electrical field.By achieving selective separation of similar ions from complex

user: Describe how 'Graphene Heterostructures by Self-Assembly:Top-down meets Bottom-up' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

One-atom thin two-dimensional nanomaterials possess unique properties different from their bulk counterparts. Initiated by the discovery of graphene, many stable one atom-thick layers such as boron nitride, molybdenum disulphide, tungsten disulphide etc., have been isolated and characterized. However, the individual properties of such 2D-atomic crystals (except graphene) were modest. The combination of isolated single atomic layers into designer structures, named as 2D-heterostrcutures, is predicted to give synergetic properties. In order to harness the interesting properties the combination of various 2D-atomic crystals have to offer, a method to assemble them in a simple and scalable way is required. Currently, the only method known is manual placing of the 2D-atomic crystal layers sequentially which limits the scope of the study of such structures. The objective of the proposal is to assemble layered (each layer is one atom thick) stacks of graphene superlattices and heterostructures with other 2D-atomic crystals such as BN, MoS2, WS2 etc., by deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA)-mediated assembly. DNA mediated assembly is highly programmable by chemically specific interaction between nucleotides, length of the DNA, strength of the interactions in addition to the symmetry control of the assembled structures. Top-down lithography will be combined with bottom-up DNA assembly to fabricate seed layers of DNA for the guided assembly which lead to patterned heterostructures. This approach is targeted toward combinatorial screening of exotic properties of varied architectures of heterostructures with control over the composition of 2D-atomic crystals and spacing between the layers (controlled by DNA). The anticipated structures would be vertical atomic scale Legos of 2D-atomic cryst

user: Describe how 'Margaret Cavendish (1623-1673) in the history of European ideas of consciousness' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The MSCA-PF MC-EuCon project investigates Margaret Cavendish’s philosophy (1623-73), in order to provide the first detailed interpretation of her theory of consciousness. Questions about consciousness, its origin and presence in nature, which dominate present-day philosophy of mind, arose during the 17th century. Against Descartes’s mind-body dualism and his attribution of mental life to humans alone, Cavendish argued for a wholly material, yet wholly thinking universe. By providing one of the earliest and most original responses to Descartes’s theories, Cavendish plays a seminal role in the European history of the concept of consciousness, offering a rich opportunity for developing our understanding of how problems about consciousness evolved and were addressed in Europe in the early modern period. However, her original contribution has been so far neglected. Since no specific word for ‘consciousness’ was yet available in the philosophical vocabulary of her day, extrapolating her views on the topic has been problematic. To overcome this difficulty, the MC-EuCon project applies digital humanities tools to texts of Cavendish and her interlocutors, in order to reconstruct her vocabulary related to consciousness and clarify her theory. It then assesses the significance of her ideas for past and present-day debates in philosophy of mind. To date, the role of women in the history of philosophy has not been sufficiently recognized. The elimination or marginalization of women in the history of philosophy has presented students, researchers and the general public with a historically inaccurate view; this has helped existing gender inequalities in philosophy to persist. Studying and communicating Cavendish’s contributions to the history of consciousness—one of the most significa

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Direct biological conversion of solar energy to volatile hydrocarbon fuels by engineered cyanobacteria' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The objective of the DirectFuel project is to develop photosynthetic microorganisms that catalyze direct conversion of solar energy and carbon dioxide to engine-ready fuels. A key process target of the proposal is 'direct' in the sense that fuel production should not require destructive extraction and further chemical conversion to generate directly useable transport fuels. To further increase our chances of delivering a functioning process we target only non-toxic end-products that have been demonstrated to function in existing or minimally modified combustion engines. From the above criteria, we have chosen to develop an exclusively biological production process for the volatile end-products ethylene and short-chain n-alkanes ethane and propane in photosynthetic cyanobacteria.As no natural biochemical pathways are known to exist for short-chain alkane biosynthesis, we first identify potential gene candidates through informatics analysis and then tailor the substrate specificities of the encoded enzymes by enzyme engineering. In order to directly capture solar energy to drive fuel biosynthesis, the synthetic pathways are at first assembled in the photosynthetic model organism Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. It is highly unlikely that mere 'introduction' of novel biochemical pathways will result in high-yield synthesis of desired end-products. The final key step is therefore to optimize native host metabolism to deliver reducing energy and metabolic precursors to the synthetic pathways with maximum metabolic flux.Successful construction of the intended strains would allow low-cost production of transport fuel in a potentially neutral 'greenhouse gas' emitting process that does not compete for agricultural land. The proposed project is highly relevant to the call as we const

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Inspiring Creativity: investigating how a digital arts intervention can enhance creative mind-wandering'.

assistant: **Concept**

Mind-wandering research in the cognitive sciences shows that a significant portion of novel ideas and breakthrough “aha!” moments happen when attention is shifted internally, away from tasks in the external environment. However, research has not explored how to encourage these creative mental wanders. Inspired by how exposure to art leads to generating innovative ideas, this project investigates the hypothesis that a digital arts intervention can enhance creative thoughts when mind-wandering. This use of digital technology is antithetical to its common aim of guiding attention externally. Accordingly, this project challenges how we use digital technology and opens opportunities for interdisciplinary research across the arts and sciences. Expected impacts are: 1) paving a new direction in mind-wandering research by investigating the possibility of inspiring creative thoughts, 2) Uncovering how digital arts can be an empirical tool to investigate cognitive processes, and 3) Conceptually extending the discourse of how technology affects cognition. This project will produce high-impact research publications, presentations, and an interdisciplinary symposium to disseminate findings across relevant disciplines. Communication with the public will be facilitated with a project dedicated website and targeted outreach efforts both at the TC and return host institutions.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Monitoring vegetation phenology at multiple scales in Europe from the GMES satellite sensor time-series: a special consideration to natura2000 areas' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Global warming has been evidenced by numerous studies, and can be clearly identified in the recent historical evolution of temperatures across the globe. Increasing temperatures may leads to changes in the phenology of vegetation. The objective of this project is to develop an accurate methodology based on satellite sensor imagery for studying and mapping the phenological response of European terrestrial vegetation to climate drivers. These maps will be available to be used for tuning models of carbon emissions and planning for the management of natural vegetation.The new generation of biophysical time-series from the European Global Monitoring of the Environment and Security programme, at coarse, medium and fine scales, will be used to extract the two main phenological variables (onset of greenness and end of senescence) for the whole European continent at a broader scale, and country and local scales (natura2000 areas). On the one hand, it is expected to evaluate the suitability of different biophysical parameters related to the state of vegetation for the extraction of phenological variables. On the other hand, the influence of the scale factor on the phenology of vegetation is studied, by comparing information obtained at continental, regional and local scales from the different European sensors available.Because of high resolution biophysical parameter are not available for the study of phenology at local scales, a geostatistical methodology will be developed for downscaling the phenological information to the scale of specific sites of ecological importance in order to monitor the state of the natura2000 areas. The specific methodology to obtain phenological variables from biophysical parameters at country scale can be applied to study the changes in phenology in
