user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project '400 Million Years of Symbiosis: Host-microbe interactions in marine lucinid clams from past to present' (EvoLucin) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The widespread recognition that interactions with microbes drive animal health, development and evolution is transforming biology, but we so far understand the underlying mechanisms in very few systems. Considering that virtually every animal on Earth evolved with and among the microbes in its environment, there is still immense potential for discovering fundamentally new mechanisms of interaction among the staggering diversity of animals and their microbial symbionts in nature. The ancient and exclusive association between marine lucinid clams and chemosynthetic symbiotic bacteria is ideal for investigating these interactions. Lucinidae is one of the most widespread and species-rich animal families in the oceans today, and has lived in symbiosis for more than 400 million years. The clam’s outstanding ability to select one specific symbiont from the trillions of bacteria in its environment challenges widely held assumptions about the function and specificity of the innate immune system. Symbiont-free juveniles can be raised in the lab, and experimentally infected, allowing unmatched insights into the early development of this symbiosis. Although the symbiont infection is specific to gill cells, symbiont-encoded proteins can be found in distant parts of the animal that are symbiont-free. I will combine cutting-edge molecular tools and experimental infection to better understand three key aspects of host-microbe interactions in these clams: 1) Acquisition and selection of microbes during animal development, 2) Maintenance along animal lifetimes through molecular communication and exchange, and 3) Emergence and perpetuation over evolution. I hypothesize that intracellular bacterial symbionts fundamentally alter host biology, and these effects are not limited to the locatio

user: Explain how 'European Congress on the Future of Waste Management in Europe 2002' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

The International Congress on Waste Management 2002 generates information on innovative solutions that can contribute in the short-term to the development and implementation of improved policy, legislative and regulatory measures for an environmentally friendly treatment of waste, both at EU and national levels. It will support pre-normative research, which is widely recognised in many areas of economic and industrial domains, and is specially relevant regarding the protection of our limited natural resources, where standards are often necessary to remove barriers blocking the development and diffusion of emerging technologies. The conference provides the unique opportunity of an exchange of views between Europe's leading experts in the field of waste management. International exchange of ideas and opinions in the field of waste management will contribute to the development and application of the most useful and efficient methods.Nature and resources will benefit from the progress made in this field. Therefore technologies that provide state of the art solutions for problems like building wastes, transport, recovery treament and disposal of hazardous wastes, landfill and recycling etc. are a highly efficient tool in the struggle for a healthier environment and a more sustainable economic development. The European Congress in 2002 in Strasbourg is committed to pointing out and discussing the different approaches to waste treatment of various European nations. State of the art techniques are compared on examples. Mechanical-biological and thermal treatment as well as landfill need very high technical standards to be able to call for comparable ecological standards. The GVC/DECHEMA expert committee sees itself as a brokerage of problem solutions where results of research,

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Effective Theories for Strong Interactions: Precision Tools to Meet Experiment'.

assistant: **Concept**

The strong force is one of the four fundamental interactions of nature. It is responsible for binding together the constituents of atomic nuclei and for making up the vast majority of the mass of the visible universe. According to present understanding, quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is the theory governing strong interactions. Understanding how QCD gives rise to the whole complex phenomenology of nuclei and particles affected by strong forces is one of the great theoretical challenges of our time.Modern experiments, like the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, are probing our knowledge of strong interactions at an unprecedented level of precision. Exploiting the full potential of these experiments requires improved calculations in QCD. A precise understanding of the QCD background and the analysis of new observables are crucial to unambiguously identify signals of physics that is not described by the Standard Model of the presently known fundamental constituents of matter. In my project I exploit the powerful tools of theories formulated in terms of effective degrees of freedom to provide accurate analytic solutions of QCD by means of rigorous, systematically improvable approximations.In the high-energy regime, I will employ novel ideas and computational techniques to gain theoretical control on the physics governing the phenomena we observe at electron-positron and proton-proton colliders. I will formulate predictions beyond the state of the art for observables which are of great interest for ongoing experiments at CERN.For energy scales up to 1 GeV, I will employ new methods to improve calculations of strong-interaction effects in quantities measured to high precision to validate the Standard Model and determine its fundamental parameters.

user: Explain how 'BIOphysics of MIcrobe-Microplastic Interactions and Colonization' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Aquatic microbes - both marine and freshwater - drive global biogeochemical cycles. However, owing to the influx of microplastics (MPs) in their natural ecosystems, microbes now face a daunting task of holding such cycles in balance. From passive encounters with suspended particles to active interactions among species, microbes tackle a myriad of environmental signals along the water depths. Crucially, a steady inflow of MPs into aquatic ecosystems has led to reduced species fitness, altered feeding dynamics, and ultimately, ecosystem restructuring. Due to their abundance, durability, and an easy mobility across trophic levels, MPs have been implicated in perturbing diverse aquatic settings. Despite the growing evidence of potentially deleterious ramifications, we still lack a mechanistic understanding of the microbe-MP interactions. BIOMIMIC will zoom into the microscale biophysics mediating the microbe-MP interactions, and develop a mechano-genetic framework to assess the emergent physiological consequences. By combining microfluidics, quantitative imaging, and molecular techniques, I will experimentally simulate, analyse and quantify the impact of MPs on aquatic microbes. To capture ecologically relevant settings, a representative group of bacteria and algal populations will be exposed to MPs with characteristic physico-chemical makeup, over a range of concentrations, and under different hydrodynamic regimes. Specifically, I will uncover MP-induced microbial response: behaviour, physiology, and bio-molecular, and concomitantly, the modification of MP-attributes due to microbial interactions. By cataloging the species-MP encounters in realistic settings, BIOMIMIC will unravel fundamental biophysical principles of microbial response to MPs. Through it's innovative appr

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'COOK-SAFE: A Safer, Non-stick, Antibacterial and Heat-stable Nanocoating for Cookware and Household Appliances.' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

While the demand for non-stick cookware and household appliances has been increasing worldwide, there are even greater concerns over the safety of non-stick coatings. Most of these non-stick surfaces are coated with Teflon, with 90% of all aluminium cookware sold coated with Teflon.  Tests show that when Teflon-coated pans and appliances are heated above 6800F, toxins are produced, including the likely carcinogens polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and perfluorooctanoic acid(PFOA). PFOA is linked to a range of health problems, including thyroid disease, infertility in women and organ damage as well as developmental and reproductive problems in lab animals.  Toxic fumes released from heated cookware and appliances may kill pet birds and cause people to develop flu-like symptoms, called “Polymer fume fever” or “Teflon Flu”. Manufacturers’ labels warn consumers to avoid high heat on Teflon-coated appliances, but recent tests show that in just two to five minutes, cookware or surfaces coated with Teflon could exceed temperatures at which the coating breaks apart and emits toxic gases. Alternative coatings exist on the market today but no solution exists that is non-stick, stable at high temperature and completely safe. Consequently, Pramar is developing a safe, stable nanocoating for use in the appliances and cookware markets. Our product will impact Europe and the world by reducing the use of raw materials through miniaturisation, reducing the energy and CO2 emissions by 60% and self-cleaning properties help save energy, water and chemicals used in cleaning.  This project will greatly benefit our company through a new range of non-stick, enamelled appliances (new generation of our current products), allowing us to increase our turnover by 50% over a 5-year period.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Locating chemical hot-spots in the water using underwater robots'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Chemical hot spots are geographic areas that contain rich sources of various chemical substances. The aquatic environment, and particularly the seabed, contains many chemical hot spots that require identification, but doing so today is expensive and inefficient due to the limitations of underwater monitoring technologies. These limitations are most evident in three very important aspects of human aquatic activity: marine mining for precious minerals, detection and monitoring of chemical pollution, and detection of underwater unexploded ordnance.The proposed project will develop a novel method for locating chemical sources: small, low-cost AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles), capable of sensing a specific chemical and autonomously navigating to where its concentration is highest, thus locating the hot spot. Since the turbulent aquatic environment disperses the chemical signals chaotically and obstructs the ability to track chemical plumes, the navigation algorithms for these torpedo-shaped robots will be developed by computerized simulations of chemical plumes.These will be based on Bio-navigation - unique knowledge obtained from studied marine animals which perform precisely the same task, i.e. tracking the odour plumes emanating from their targets and navigating in the chemical gradient fields to reach the source. The project will create effective AUV navigation software, enabling AUVs to efficiently locate chemical hot-spots in the water; demonstrate their abilities in flow-tank and field experiments; and implement the new technology, both scientifically and commercially, as an integrated part of the EC Marine Bio-Remediation project currently conducted at Coimbra, Portugal.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Empathy and International Security' (EIS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

This MSCA research project ‘Empathy and International Security' (EIS) uses an interdisciplinary approach combining international relations theory, history, and political psychology to ask: How can a more nuanced understanding of empathy inform more human-centric approaches to security? Despite growing awareness of the importance of empathy in international relations, no research has yet examined the tensions inherent in the concept, or how it can be used to both alleviate and transform, or perpetuate or entrench, insecurity. EIS addresses this gap. To answer this question, I examine the multifaceted nature of empathy through four distinct case studies. I use two interconnected episodes from the Cold War (Modernization and Vietnam war) to reveal that empathy is not a novel concept, but one whose meaning and application has changed over time. I will then turn to  the case of recent refugee flows into Europe and the response to the global pandemic to analyze empathy's significance to contemporary security challenges and political leadership. Using a qualitative research methodology that draws on archival materials, discourse analysis and elite interviews, I compare and contrast these cases to demonstrate how empathy connects with ideas of power, interests, politics, security and gender as part of an original conceptual framework and typology. EIS combines the expertise at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) and the Centre for War Studies (CWS) on human-centric approaches to international security, with my experience as a qualitative scholar on empathy in IR, and my fifteen years experience in international security policy and politics. It will combine academic research and theory development, with an applied and policy-relevant approach to make an innovative contribut

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Verified and Passportable Financial Identity' (EU-CREDIT-AI) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Mifundo OÜ, an Estonian fintech founded in 2018, is developing the first cross-border AI and data platform. We provide a technologylayer to passport credit histories across borders through one single API. Today's bank lending is country-based and there is no solution available across the EU, making cross-border borrowing almost impossible. No single party, bank or credit bureau is interested in solving a problem that requires such a high investment. Mifundo is removing the barriers between people and banks in the EU that eliminate over 45 million people from having access to financial services, due to highly fragmented nature of data.Despite being new to the market, Mifundo has achieved success, becoming a member of ACCIS (world's largest credit reference agency) and FinanceEstonia (financial sector representative organisation supporting the Estonian economy). Mifundo enables financially excluded European expats to access capital by passporting credit histories across borders, reducing loan disparities and discrimination by nationality, and improving financial literacy. Additionally, banks do not need to perform credit analysis as Mifundo provides it and ensures local compliance. By leveraging diverse data sources and generating new data points, the platform enhances the credit score model's accuracy.The main objectives of the EIC Accelerator project are data collection and standardisation, credit risk score development, regulatory compliance and developing AI engine for credit risk assessment. This funding accelerates platform development, enhances risk assessments with cutting-edge technologies, establishes partnerships, ensures compliance and expands the user base. Mifundo aims to become the leading crossborder credit service provider in the EU.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'How neuronal activity patterns drive behavior: novel all-optical control and monitoring of brain neuronal networks with high spatiotemporal resolution' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

When we see an object, hear a sound or smell an odor, precise spatial and temporal patterns of electrical activity are generated within neuronal networks located in specialized brain areas. This electrical representation of the external stimulus mediates perception and sensory experience. However, this process is highly variable, and repetition of the very same sensory experience results in distinct network activity patterns. What does this variability mean for perception? Do distinct activity patterns carry different information about the stimulus? Or rather, does the brain code the same information coming from the outside world in multiple and equivalent ways? Answering these questions and determining how patterns of activity in neuronal populations are used for behavior has not been possible because of the inability to change the activity of neurons with single cell precision over large networks in an intact mammalian brain. In this ambitious proposal we will take a multidisciplinary approach to causally address these questions and decipher the computational principles of brain networks. To achieve this goal we will develop innovative optical technologies for manipulating and monitoring brain circuits with single cell resolution in the intact mouse brain. We will combine these new techniques with novel genetic manipulations and psychophysical behavioral methods that allow precise quantification of animals’ perceptual performance. Using this unique set of tools, we will unravel how the spatial (across neurons) and temporal (across time) aspects of neuronal electrical activity patterns encode information that guides behavior. In achieving our goals we will produce a new technology for stimulating and monitoring neurons in the brains of behaving animals with single-cell

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Novel infrared spectroscopic tools for mycotoxin determination in foodstuffs for increased food safety' (MYCOSPEC).

assistant: **Concept**

Mycotoxins are contaminants produced by fungi that infest food crops and processed foods. Mycotoxins enter the food chain via infected crops that are either directly consumed by humans or indirectly ingested as a consequence of crops as an animal feed ingredient. These toxins have been linked to human oesophageal cancer, equine leukoencephalomalacia, and toxic feed syndrome in poultry, and pulmonary edema in pigs. In recent years, research on cumulative risks, exposure, and long-term effects has raised awareness for the control of such health risks. Due to the potential danger of such carcinogens to humans and livestock, strict regulatory controls determine the sale and use of mycotoxin-containing foods. Resulting, grain and other foodstuff buyers increasingly demand more rigorous and timely food safety testing. Failure to achieve a satisfactory performance may lead to unacceptable consignments being accepted or satisfactory batches being unnecessarily rejected. However, quantitative and rapid analysis of these toxins is difficult with analytical results prone to vary between laboratories, sometimes by orders of magnitude.The MYCOSPEC project will develop an innovative tool based on infrared spectroscopic fingerprinting techniques for the rapid on-site diagnosis of fungal diseases at the surface of foods or in liquid foodstuffs such as e.g., homogenized foodstuff or beverages. The envisaged approach will enable the development of a compact yet highly sensitive tool, which will ensure that larger volumes of the cereals and foodstuffs can be probed, sensitively detected, and quantified. The high information content of infrared spectroscopic analysis combined with multivariate calibration and data classification will provide a novel approach for rapid, high-throughput moni
