user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'A novel materials/design approach for thermoeletric coolers' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The project seeks to research the basis for the development of a new type of thermoelectric device which will have a much lower effective cost per cooling watt and be significantly easier to use than existing conventional devices. In attempting to extend the use of thermoelectric cooling into general applications it is proposed that the engineering design, materials and production technology become as, if not more, important than the overall performance ( i.e. figure of merit ). Such an approach has not been considered before and it is the prime purpose of the proposed project to develop a more complete understanding of the conflicting design and materials requirements in order to identify and evaluate the true potential of this strategy. In order to specifically address these complex and conflicting requirements the project will be focused on the development and demonstration of advanced thermoelectric devices by the consideration of; * Design configurations with respect to the device materials matrix, cost, power supply requirements, performance and manufacturing technology * Novel ceramic based composites as integral substrate/heat exchangers * Use of conventional and polycrystalline telluride an alternative thermoelectric materials

user: Explain how 'Development of methodology for alternative testing strategies for the assessment of the toxicological profile of nanoparticles used in medical diagnostics' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Nanoparticles (NP) have unique, potentially beneficial properties, but their possible impact on human health has not been adequately assessed. The main goal of this proposal is to develop alternative high-throughput testing strategies using in vitro and in silico methods to assess the toxicological profile of NP used in medical diagnostics. Our specific aims are to: 1. Define NP properties and fully characterize NP to be used 2. Study NP interactions with molecules, cells and organs and develop in vitro methods to study the toxicological potential of NP 3.  Validate in vitro findings in short-term in vivo models and study particle effects in animals and (ex vivo) in humans to assess individual susceptibility to NP 4.  Develop in silico models of NP interactions Experimental work is structured in 4 WPs to address NP characterisation and key elements in evaluation of NP uptake, exposure and toxicology. NANOTEST integrates the investigation of toxicological properties and effects of NP in several target systems by developing a battery of in vitro assays using cell cultures, organotypic cell culture and small organ fragments (ex vivo) derived from different biological systems; blood, vascular system, liver, lung, placenta, digestive and central nervous systems. As NP action is likely to involve oxidative stress we will focus on the cross-cutting areas of inflammation, cellular toxicity, immunotoxicity, genotoxicity and related endpoints. Following development of SOP and generation of a common database and in parallel with in silico assays (QSAR, PBPK modelling), NanoTest will evaluate toxic effects and interactions of NP used in nanomedicine. Results will be validated in an experimental ethically approved in vivo model. The most advanced and standardised techniques will be

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Sculpting the Earth’s topography: insights from modelling deep–surface processes' (TOPOMOD).

assistant: **Concept**

TOPOMOD is a training project designed for a team of early-stage and experienced researchers to investigate and model the origin and evolution of topography of the continents over a wide range of spatial and temporal scales and using a multi-disciplinary approach, coupling geophysics, geochemistry, tectonics and structural geology with advanced geodynamic modeling.TOPOMOD involves 8 European research teams internationally recognized for their excellence in complementary fields of Earth Sciences, to which are associated 1 research institution, 3 high-technology enterprises, and 1-2 large multinational oil and gas companies. This unique network places emphasis in experience-based training through 15 cross-disciplinary research projects that combine case studies in well-chosen target areas from the Mediterranean, the Middle and Far East, west Africa, and South America, with new developments in tectonics, mineral physics, petrology, geochemistry, seismology, structural geology and geodynamic modeling from the deep mantle to the surface. These multidisciplinary projects altogether aim to answer a key question in earth Sciences: how deep and surface processes interact to shape and control the evolution of topography in our planet. Topography influences society, not only as a result of slow landscape changes but also in terms of geo-hazard and environmental risks.TOPOMOD will provide to 13 early-stage researchers (ESRs) and 2 experienced researchers (ERs): i) state-of-the-art concepts and leading-edge research techniques that are essential to study the behavior of complex natural systems, ii) a strong career management skills with practical courses and activities; iii) solid professional connections with industry; iv) a socially-oriented skill on environmental risks management

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'High performance protection with sol-gel coatings on metals and enamels (SURFPROTECT)' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Objectives and content:The protection of metals like stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium, aluminium alloys and enamelled metals against low and high temperature oxidation, against acidic and alkaline attack, against corrosive gases such as chlorine, ammonia etc. is an important technologic and economic task. Existing protective coatings do not fulfil all demands and compromises have to be accepted. The aim of this project is to demonstrate the feasibility of sol-gel derived inorganic-organic nanocomposite systems (Nanomer coatings) and glass-like sol-gel coatings as corrosion protection with improved surface properties (colour, stain proof, transparency, wear resistance) at low and high temperatures on steel (stainless steel, mild steel) and aluminium-alloys and the improvement of the surface performance of enamels. The research partners INM and CSIC are engaged in the development of various new glass-like and inorganic-organic nanocomposite (Nanomer) coatings for many applications. Because of their tolerable properties, those materials are suitable to fulfil a wide range of requirements. As preliminary investigations have shown inorganic-organic nanocomposites provide a good corrosion protection on aluminium and aluminium-alloys combined with high scratch-resistance, transparency and reducing the surface area for corrosive attack.Glass-like sol-gel coatings have already been investigated in the laboratory as corrosion protective coatings on stainless and mild steel by partners INM, CSIC and Mieleprotection against gaseous attack at 800ÐC and against attack of different foodstuff up to 350ÐC and household cleaners up to 250ÐC. The technical innovative aspects claimed in this proposal is the substitution of porcelain enamels and organic coatings on aluminium and steel

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'DEVELOPMENT OF A NOVEL, COST EFFECTIVE TECHNIQUE TO OPTIMISE OLIVE OIL PRODUCTION' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

One of the greatest challenges to the olive-oil sector is the optimization of the oil production and extraction process, given the large number of factors that must be integrated and the many variables that can affect production, such as paste fineness, mixing time and temperature. Currently, operational control of extraction equipment is generally carried out manually by an experienced operator, posing inherent problems related to subjectivity of human judgment. The standard method to control oil extraction efficiency is the measurement of oil content and moisture in the by-product using chemical extraction, which is usually performed by a laboratory external to the olive oil mill. Given that laboratory data, essential for the optimization of extraction, is obtained long after sampling, there is no access to real-time information on extraction efficiency. Consequently, the process cannot be instantly optimised. As such, SMEs consortium partners have identified a clear need to develop a real-time measurement and automatic control of critical parameters throughout the entire production process as there are currently no automatic control systems for olive-oil mills in the market. The commercial objective of the project is to develop an automatic control system to optimise the oil extraction process in terms of oil yield and working hours, and reduce the pollution levels of the resulting wastewater. Near Infrared technology and predictive control models will be researched for the improvement and maximisation of olive oil extraction. A new and specific NIR sensor, fulfilling the requirements of the olive oil industry, will be developed for on-line measurement of oil and moisture content and an automatic control system with software based on predictive control models will be

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'A SpinWave Ising Machine' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The SWIM project will tackle a critical challenge for the emerging field of Ising Machines (IMs): the development of miniaturized, low-power, and low-cost IMs with high computational power, commercial feasibility, and speed beyond classical Von-Neuman and CMOS-based solutions. SWIM will achieve this through exploiting exceptionally slow propagating spinwaves and using off-the-shelf power-efficient microwave electronic components and circuits in an entirely novel architecture of YIG-film-based Ising Machines (IM) with potential performance many orders of magnitude beyond the state-of-the-art. The project's objectives are to explore the possibilities of using spinwaves and microwave signals to construct multiphysical time-multiplexed IMs and study and determine the spinwave phenomena and electronic design techniques needed to improve targeted parameters: power consumption, Ising spin capacity, physical size, and speed performance. The objectives will be achieved through a multidisciplinary approach involving classical and modern methods. Theoretical magnetostatic description of propagating spinwaves, micromagnetic simulation methods, and electronic circuit design theory will be used for the SWIM design. Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy and microwave measurement techniques will be used for the analysis of the results and further improvement.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'NEar FiEld cosmology: Re-Tracing Invisible TImes'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The goal of NEFERTITI is to make a major step forward in our understanding of the first stars and galaxies by catching the stellar fossils from the early Universe in our Galactic neighborhood. To move beyond the state-of-the-art and study many of these precious fossils, I will adopt a novel approach that integrates theoretical and observational research and that will allow me to fully exploit: i) the huge data-flow from upcoming stellar surveys, ii) my cosmological models, which uniquely link Local data and early cosmic star-formation.  The first stars profoundly influenced the primordial Universe, affecting subsequent stellar generations and the build-up of the first galaxies. In spite of extraordinary progress in theoretical modeling and observational techniques little is known about their properties, not even their typical mass. A direct exploration of their formation epochs is a tremendous challenge. Even JWST will not see the faint dwarf galaxies where the first stars formed more than 13 billion years ago.In the Local Group, the living relics of the first stars can be directly observed and used to re-trace the chemical evolution and star-formation of the gas during those “invisible” times. Yet, these early Universe survivors are very rare and difficult to catch. In the present era of wide and deep Local surveys, such as DES, Gaia-ESO, and WEAVE, the total number of stars observed is dramatically increasing. Combining semi-numerical models with radiative transfer codes, I will fully exploit these novel data flow to catch the local stellar fossils and to: 1) constrain the mass distribution of the first stars,2) uncover the physical processes driving the build-up of the first galaxies. NEFERTITI will link Near and Far-field cosmology, give new insights into the format

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Defining a core petroleum reservoir microbiome'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The oil industry is dominated by engineers, geologists, geophysicists and geochemists, but the importance of microbial processes in oil exploration and production is increasingly being recognized. The world’s heavy oil deposits, that dominate the inventory of global reserves, were generated by microbial activity. Understanding the factors that control microbial activity and subsurface oil biodegradation is important for pre-drill prediction of oil quality. Biodegradation-induced gradients in oil composition and therefore oil quality and fluid properties have important implications for production strategies and oil conversion to methane may be a strategy to enhance energy recovery in reservoirs reaching the end of their conventional life. Furthermore the significance of hydrocarbons in driving processes such as biological sulfate-reduction that can lead to reservoir souring and corrosion, is poorly understood. Researchers with skills at the interfaces between reservoir geology, geochemistry, engineering and microbiology are rare. The oil industry recognizes that a number of problem domains would benefit from individuals with both microbiological training in relevant disciplines and a wider appreciation of issues that affect the oil industry. Conversely many microbiologically trained scientists lack experience in the commercial sector and the issues that are important drivers for energy companies. This IOF aims to tackle both issues by embedding a talented environmental microbiologist in the research laboratories of a major European-based energy company (Shell). This will offer opportunities for the fellow to work in a dynamic commercial setting and gain invaluable experience vital for a successful career in a commercial research environment, while augmenting a microbiolo

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Opening the black box of microbial interactions: Microbiome editing on seed natural microbial communities' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Over 80% of human food relies on plants, but up to 40% of crops are lost to pests and diseases. Chemical pesticides have boosted yields but pose health and environmental risks. To address this, the EU aims to replace 50% of pesticides with biological solutions by 2030. As a result of hundreds of millions years of coevolution, plants host a diverse microbiota coming from soil, offering biotechnological potential. Exploring plant-microbe and microbe-microbe interactions can revolutionize agriculture, enhancing food security. The discovered plant-beneficial microbial interactions could be used to generate tailored microbial communities, capable of protecting plants and reducing the need for pesticides. CRISPR-Cas derived genetic tools to edit the plant seed microbiome in order to decipher the main microbial interactions affecting plant health.  SEEDITING aims to adapt these tools, analogous to reverse genetics, from simplified synthetic bacterial communities to native seed microbiota. The main outcomes of the SEEDITING project will be to master an efficient tool for microbiome editing on SynComs (WP1) and to deploy this editing tool on extracted seed natural microbiota (WP2) to observe the consequences of editing on microbiome dynamics and microbial interactions in vitro. Finally, I will assess the impact of seed microbiota editing on the microbial transmission rates to the seedlings and the resulting plant phenotypes (WP3). This project will lead to major breakthroughs in microbiome sciences and plant-microorganisms interactions in agriculture by generating three main outputs opening new research avenues: 1) Validation of a microbiome editing tool transferrable to multiple ecosystems to decipher microbial interactions in natural communities. 2) Identification of microorga
