user: Explain how 'Managing insecticide resistance in aphids in Scotland' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Insecticide resistance, in which insecticides gradually become ineffective in controlling insect pests and insect-vectored plant diseases, has been recorded for a range of insect pests and crops. It leads to wasted pesticide applications, significant reductions in yields through not controlling the pest, and a high risk of produce exceeding maximum insecticide residue limits through repeated applications of insecticides to control increasingly harder-to-kill insect pests. Insecticide resistance in aphids is of particular concern. Besides being major agricultural and horticultural pests, aphids contribute to spread of plant viral diseases. We need to test for resistance traits in aphids to advise growers on the most appropriate insecticide programme required to avoid resistance to insecticides developing in aphids. Usually, resistance in a pest population develops to pesticides within one chemical class. Resistant insects can often be controlled using chemicals from other classes. However, traditional dose-response testing of pests to determine the nature of their resistance is time-consuming. We aim to develop a rapid resistance-detection method based on novel techniques for detecting a suite of mechanisms that code for resistance in aphids, plus mathematical modelling of resistance emergence.  These techniques will form the basis of a practical service to manage resistant aphid populations. The service will save costs through, preventing wastage of insecticides, reducing environmental toxicity and chemical residues in food, and enhanced control of aphids.  This fund will be used for collaboration between researchers at Rothamsted Research, UK, and the Scottish Crop Research Institute (SCRI) and me to develop the service.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Encodoing Social Interaction' (2007-2013).

assistant: **Concept**

Living in a social environment requires extracting social information in a meaningful way, a process that involves the perception of socially relevant signals, representation in the brain and integration with prior experience, eventually leading to modulation of behavior. Understanding how the brain interprets the world requires us to integrate our understanding of genes, brain circuits and ongoing experiences that modify behavior. We are using Drosophila Melanogaster as a model organism to study the interplay between the social environment and the brain because of its accessibility to genetic and physiological manipulation as well as its complex behavioral repertoire. We have recently demonstrated that social experience in flies can modulate the way reward is perceived and in turn modulate reward-seeking behavior through regulation of the Neuropeptide F (a homologue of Neuropeptide Y). Our study suggests that activity of the NPF/NPF receptor axis represents the state of the fly reward system and modifies behavior accordingly. Modulation of the NPF system by socially rewarding and non-rewarding experiences may thus reflect a broader mechanism by which experience is represented in the brain and converted into changes of circuit function and, eventually, modulation of behavior.  The goal of this proposal is to uncover the molecular and neural mechanisms by which rewarding and non-rewarding experiences are perceived, represented in the brain and converted into modulation of behavior. I will utilize genetic and molecular experiments, initially focusing on the NPF pathway as an inroad pathway, to dissect further the input and output components of this circuit using genetic intersection approach and identify the molecular representation of experience within NPF cells using ce

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Scents and sensibility in agriculture: exploiting specificity in herbivore- and pathogen-induced plant volatiles for real-time crop monitoring'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Plants typically release large quantities of volatiles in response to attack by herbivores or pathogens. I may claim to have contributed to various breakthroughs in this research field, including the discovery that the volatile blends induced by different attackers are astonishingly specific, resulting in characteristic, readily distinguishable odour blends. Using maize as our model plant, I wish to take several leaps forward in our understanding of this signal specificity and use this knowledge to develop sensors for the real-time detection of crop pests and diseases. For this, three interconnected work-packages will aim to:• Develop chemical analytical techniques and statistical models to decipher the odorous vocabulary of plants, and to create a complete inventory of “odour-prints” for a wide range of herbivore-plant and pathogen-plant combinations, including simultaneous infestations. • Develop and optimize nano-mechanical sensors for the detection of specific plant volatile mixtures. For this, we will initially adapt a prototype sensor that has been successfully developed for the detection of cancer-related volatiles in human breath. • Genetically manipulate maize plants to release a unique blend of root-produced volatiles upon herbivory. For this, we will engineer gene cassettes that combine recently identified P450 (CYP) genes from poplar with inducible, root-specific promoters from maize. This will result in maize plants that, in response to pest attack, release easy-to-detect aldoximes and nitriles from their roots.In short, by investigating and manipulating the specificity of inducible odour blends we will generate the necessary knowhow to develop a novel odour-detection device. The envisioned sensor technology will permit real-time monitoring of the pests and

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Studying brain representations as a distributed process: from neural code to behavior' (DistriBrainRep).

assistant: **Innovation**

We know coffee not only by its taste, but also by its name and association with caffeine. How our brains enable this association between stimulus-aspects and guides our behavior accordingly (e.g. determining whether we should drink coffee or discuss it) is one of the core questions of cognitive neuroscience. Neuroimaging research of brain activity indeed confirm that the brain simultaneously processes stimuli across distributed areas, each selective for a specific stimulus aspect. However, the computational research of stimulus representations (how fine-grained activity patterns relate to specific stimuli), is currently constrained to the detailed inspection of isolated brain areas. The proposed project offers a new formalism and method that may link these two research streams, initiating the study of representations as a distributed neural process.  By combining the computational and experimental knowledge of the host with the functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) expertise of the researcher, the proposed project aims to reveal: 1) what computational principle underlies representations of different stimulus-aspects across brain areas, 2) whether distributed representations can co-express to form an overall knowledge of a stimulus, and 3) what mechanism regulates the expression of representations to allow flexible behavior. These questions will be addressed by studying brain activity evoked by stimuli composed of multiple aspects (visual, phonetic, associative) and by drawing from fMRI, brain stimulation and computational methods. Hence, the proposed work will provide the researcher with diverse training-through-research and a platform for establishing interdisciplinary collaborations. Expected results may bridge between the two major streams of cognitive neuroim

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Ultra-low cost orbit transfer and orbit control for future libration point missions'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The key objective of this ambitious and adventurous program of research is to develop an entirely new method of spacecraft orbit transfer and orbit control using solar sails, driven only by solar radiation pressure. The new method will enable ultra-low cost libration point missions, with numerous applications in space science, Earth observation and telecommunications.To achieve this goal, orbit transfer and orbit control for such libration point missions will be investigated using modern dynamical system theory with solar radiation pressure. This provides a key advantage over conventional thrusters, since a solar sail does not require propellant, thus reducing spacecraft mass and launch costs while significantly lengthening missionduration. Through this programme of research, practical control strategies will be evaluated and engineering requirementson solar sail size and performance assessed.The programme of research will be supported by the interdisciplinary Space Glasgow Research Cluster and the host’s extensive network of international collaborators on solar sailing (ESA, NASA, NOAA). The host supervisor is the acknowledged international leader in the rapidly developing field of solar sailing. The therefore project offers a goldenopportunity to link the Experienced Research’s prior work on real-world solar sail mission operations at the Japanese Space Agency (JAXA) with the host’s extensive expertise in solar sail orbital dynamics.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'NAtuRal instability of semiConductors thIn SOlid films for sensing and photonic applications' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

NARCISO “NAtuRal instability of semiConductors thIn SOlid films for sensing and photonic applications” is an interdisciplinary project merging physics, chemistry, material science, fluid dynamics, and photonics with a high potential for applications and industrial scale-up of the relevant results. We propose to exploit the natural instability of thin solid films (solid state dewetting of silicon and germanium, SSD) to form complex patterns and nano-architectures (e.g. monocrystalline atomically-smooth structures, disordered hyperuniform metamaterials) that cannot be implemented with conventional methods. These patters will be used as: i) epitaxial platforms for the growth of light-emitting III-V compounds; ii) hard-masters for nano-imprint lithography of metal oxides (e.g. TiO2, SiO2, ZnO, Al2O3) deposited via sol-gel dip-coating (soft-NIL) and printed on arbitrary substrates, with tunable chemical and physical properties (e.g. composition, porosity, wettability). Methods and structures will be optimized towards their exploitation in two main domains of application: 1) photonic devices (e.g. anti-reflection coatings, colour-filters, random lasers, quantum emitters) and 2) micro-fluidic devices for bio/chemical sensing and water filtering. NARCISO holds the state-of-the-art in SSD and soft-NIL and is already at work in their theoretical comprehension their experimental implementation and practical exploitation. Now NARCISO will combine these techniques bringing them to the leading-edge of micro-and nanostructuring over ultra-large scales and with methods compatible with an industrial scale-up. The presence of the non-academic member  Obducat Technologies is a strategic asset of the consortium as it is a major international actor in the nano-imprint lithography domain. It

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Reassessing Leibniz's conception of number and the infinite' (REALE) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

The overall aim of the project is to investigate a neglected, though highly significant, topic in Leibniz’s thought: his general conception of number in light of his mereological theory. Special attention will be given to how this mereological background affects Leibniz’s conception of the infinite, and in particular his denial of the existence of an infinite number. In this way, the project will reshape the standard view according to which Leibniz’s rejection of infinite number is simply based on a faulty argument. On the contrary, the project’s ambition is to bring out – from Leibniz’s reflection on this topic – a (mereological) foundational theory for mathematics that can be seen as an alternative with regard to the standard set theoretical one.  This topic has the potential to bridge the gulf now existing between an important mereological foundation of mathematics, as the Leibnizian’ one, with contemporary approaches – made in the 20th century by Lesniesky and his school on one side, and David Lewis’s Parts of Classes, on the other side – which exploit mereology to provide a less ontologically committed foundations for mathematics then set theory. The project can thus fill a gap in Leibniz’s scholarship and, at the same time, shed light on these contemporary attempts, and possibly revive some of their key aspects.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Interaction of Nonlinearity and Disorder: Gateways to Optics'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The project seeks to train an experienced researcher (Dr Stanislav Derevyanko) to the highest level of professional competence by bringing him into a world class research group in the field of nonlinear optics at Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel). This goal will be acheived by an ambitious research programme aimed at  elucidating the nature of the complex interplay between nonlinearity and disorder using arguably the most illustrative example where it occurs: disordered beam propagation in nonlinear photonic waveguides and lattices.The main specific objectives of the project will be 1) to apply the methods of statistical physics to describe the thermalization of light in 1 and 2 dimensional waveguide arrays at arbitrary level of nonlinearity. 2) to study the propagation of an optical beam in disordered optical lattices and study the impact of disorder on the refractive properties such lattices 3) to build a theory of the nonlinear Hanbury-Brown and Twiss interferometer where the information about the angular size of a light source is extracted by analysing an intensity correlation of the speckled light field.In additon to purely research objectives additional complementary training in such skills as reserach commercialisation and project management will be provided to aid Dr Derevyanko's further career development.Although the project is theoretical in nature the fellowship will be taken place in a leading world-class experimental group in the field which creates a unique opportunity of immediate verification and testing the outcomes of the project and increasing its scientific impact.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Flexible automated processes for pvd coatings in new applications', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Around 18.000 European SMEs from the surface engineering sector (electroplating, anodising, galvanising) have several environmental and worker safety problems (hazardous chemicals, liquid and solid wastes) which enter into conflict with IPPC Directive 96/61/EC about integrated pollution prevention and control. PVD is a sophisticated advanced technology for applying coatings in a high vacuum, opening the possibility for applying coatings of improved performance over those employed at present.It generates no waste water and makes an optimum use of the materials so it is environmentally friendly. For all these reasons, it is an optimum candidate for substituting current problematic surface treatment technologies before mentioned, and that additionally do not offer such a potential for improvement and innovation of the coatings as market requires The objective of the project is the development of the technologies necessary to reduce the cost of the PVD treatment so as to make it affordable to the SMEs.Those new technologies include:- The development of a combination of PVD with other pre-treatments, that allows the application of PVD coating onto different kinds of materials (steel, brass, zamak, zinc or aluminium alloy components)- A low cost, flexible and fast PVD coating process and machine with optimum throughput and reliability, to shorten time in order to reduce the cost of coating it by PVD and able to coat a broad range of pieces with different coatings Eleven IAGs, SMEs and RTDs from five European Countries representing 50% of the surface treatment sector in Europe have come together to develop these new PVD processes.The project will have a very positive impact on the sector competitiveness, reducing consumption of raw materials, energy and water, avoiding waste p
