user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Small-scale structure of turbulence - fundamental aspects and numerical models' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

This study investigates topological aspects of small-scale turbulence. More specificly, an attempt is made to quantify dissipation rates of kinetic energy and characteristics of non-linear energy transfer as WELL as diffusion characteristics and mixing properties of coherent structures PRESENT in small-scale turbulence The course of the research is two-fold. On the one hand, by analysing direct numerical simulations of turbulence the relation between flow topology, local energy dissipation, mixing rates. and non-linear energy transfer will be directly measured and quantified. On the other hand, by studying simplified model problems both analytically and numerically, insight will be reached on the effect of certain (near-singular) flow topologies on dissipation and diffusion rates which will be related to the findings from direct simulations. It is expected that this study will clarify the significance and Reynolds number dependance of isolated structures with respect to the overall dissipative properties of small-scale turbulence and thus provide insight and guidance for the development of more accurate and general turbulence models suitable for engineering applications. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) The research is foreseen to lead to a Ph.D. degree.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Development of novel technological approaches for a low-cost and reliable characterization of CROP Yield QUALity Traits of target crops grown under Changing Environmental Conditions' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The expansion of world population requires the development of new strategies and tools for agriculture to ensure that high levels of production will accommodate the needs of world population by developing a highly productive and resource efficient agricultural systems. To that end, it is necessary to provide current breeding programs with improved methodologies (traits and protocols) for phenotyping together with a deeper knowledge of the molecular and metabolic mechanisms that modulate plant response to abiotic constraints in terms of yield and quality. Therefore, the development of new technological approaches, such as multispectral sensors and near-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) is critical to deliver new tools for efficient breeding programs and in field management of crops. The current project has five main objectives: 1st objective is to investigate how will crop (wheat, rice, soybean, maize and quinoa) production and quality will be affected by the environment. 2nd objective is to identify the best adapted cultivars and molecular markers conferring a better grain yield and quality. 3rd objective is to investigate what phenotyping and molecular traits can better inform on crop yield and resource (water, nutrients, radiation) use efficiency. 4th objective is to develop the use of different remote sensing at field and labs levels as strategic tools to determine yield value. 5th objective will be the development of models.The result will be to build on the strong existing research network of 5 EU academic, 5 non-EU academic institutions and 2 firms. The project pursues the main objective of generating a common solid knowledge basis arising from the fruitful cross-sectorial synergy between forefront research Centers in precision agriculture and industry, in

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Executive resources and bottom-up speech input in the first and second language of bilinguals', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

How does manipulating top-down resources and bottom-up speech input differentially influence language processing in the first (L1) and second (L2) language of bilinguals? Are there differences in the intelligibility thresholds for degraded stimuli in L1 and L2?We will test late bilinguals in two event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) projects. The first will involve examining how breaking down the bottom-up information (i.e.; the speech stimulus) differentially influences speech perception and its underlying neural activity in the two languages.Word pairs will be degraded by being presenting in noise using the SPIN paradigm. There will be speech, and speech plus noise conditions. In both, subjects will hear pairs of either related o r unrelated words, followed by a visually presented word, and will have to decide if the first word of each pair is the same or different as the visually presented word.The second project will involve examining how manipulating top-down, 'executive' functions differentially influence speech perception in L1 and L2, and its underlying neural correlates, in the same individuals. We will again present related and unrelated word pairs, and will manipulate executive resources by adding auditory cues, auditory distractors, or a distractor task.We expect that subjects will be less hindered by the noise during task performance in L1 than in L2, and further, that individuals will make better use of the contextual information (relatedness) in L1 than in L2. Executive and attentional control processes, subserved by the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and the anterior cingulate, may differentially be involved in the speech plus noise condition across languages.We expect that in L2, attentional cues will help subjects to partly recover

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Functional surface coatings prepared by bacteria' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The feasibility of functional surface coatings prepared by metal accumulating microorganisms should be investigated in an interdisciplinary research project (biology - physics). A lot of well working and highly sophisticated physical and chemical surface coating processes such as PVD, CVD and galvanic methods are already known. However, all of these methods have their specific disadvantages. New additional coating techniques and materials e.g. biological techniques would be highly desireable. Some bacteria are capable of binding large amounts of metal ions. Metal binding bacteria find already practical applications in hydrometallurgy for the leaching of metal and the treatment of acid mine drainage, clean up of sewage and lakes contaminated with heavy metal ions, others play a significant role in microbial induced corrosion. Also known are magnetotactic bacteria. They have an inherent magnetic moment, which enables them to orient themselves in an externally magnetic field. If these bacteria could be encouraged to grow on a suitably prepared surface, one may have a way to produce useful surface coatings -- possibly even metallic ones. Fundamental physical and biological properties relevant for the functionality of the microbially produced coatings should be investigat

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Dynamically augmented navigation system' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The need to know the precise location of individuals has become ubiquitous. Systems currently used for tracking humans and animals depend on global navigation satellite systems (GNSS eg GPS, Galileo) developed for aircraft, cars and boats, and do not provide reliable position information in conditions where GNSS is inaccurate or unavailable. For our research into locomotion of free-ranging animals, we developed a dynamically-augmented sensor system of higher integrity than GNSS alone. Currently, where GNSS is inaccurate or unavailable, most users have no alternative electronic means of navigation. Our system delivers this functionality, with the added benefits of low cost, low power requirements and small size. We propose to transform our research system into a prototype product ready for a commercial partner to take to market. It will fill the gap in the market between highly accurate but heavy and expensive navigation systems, and consumer level systems that give poor accuracy, especially in challenging GNSS conditions. Our system combines information about speed and heading during legged locomotion from accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers and uses it to independently calculate track (position/time) to improve accuracy and continuity. Where GNSS is available, our system assesses the quality of GNSS fixes and uses only reliable information to augment the localisation solution. The performance of the research system and novelty of the approach have been demonstrated through five publications in Nature. The system can be interfaced with other technologies (eg physiological or environmental monitoring systems) and can communicate real-time position data locally or via wireless communications technology to a central control position or server.Our dynamically augme

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Dissecting active matter: Microscopic origins of macroscopic actomyosin activity' (MicMactin).

assistant: **Innovation**

Biological motion and forces originate from mechanically active proteins operating at the nanometer scale. These individual active elements interact through the surrounding cellular medium, collectively generating structures spanning tens of micrometers whose mechanical properties are perfectly tuned to their fundamentally out-of-equilibrium biological function. While both individual proteins and the resulting cellular behaviors are well characterized, understanding the relationship between these two scales remains a major challenge in both physics and cell biology.We will bridge this gap through multiscale models of the emergence of active material properties in the experimentally well-characterized actin cytoskeleton. We will thus investigate unexplored, strongly interacting nonequilibrium regimes. We will develop a complete framework for cytoskeletal activity by separately studying all three fundamental processes driving it out of equilibrium: actin filament assembly and disassembly, force exertion by branched actin networks, and the action of molecular motors. We will then recombine these approaches into a unified understanding of complex cell motility processes.To tackle the cytoskeleton's disordered geometry and many-body interactions, we will design new nonequilibrium self consistent methods in statistical mechanics and elasticity theory. Our findings will be validated through simulations and close experimental collaborations.Our work will break new ground in both biology and physics. In the context of biology, it will establish a new framework to understand how the cell controls its achitecture and mechanics through biochemical regulation. On the physics side, it will set up new paradigms for the emergence of original out-of-equilibrium collective behaviors in a

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Emulating Nature through Asymmetric Catalysis' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

We aim to establish a multidisciplinary research program inspired by nature s ability to selectively and specifically control the formation of complex materials, in order to develop new catalytic reactions, generate new materials and delineate new synthetic strategies.  The performance of enzymes - complex catalysts perfected though millions years of evolution - offer ideals of selectivity and specificity that synthetic chemistry can aspire to.  This proposal aims to establish a multidisciplinary approach to develop new practical and predictable catalytic methods based upon and inspired by natural catalysts.  We aim to challenge preconceptions about the field of organic synthesis to focus on the development of asymmetric electrocyclization processes, an entire class of reactions for which there is no general solution.  We have delineated an ion-pairing approach to the only catalytic asymmetric thermal 6À electrocyclic process and we aim to build on the insight provided by this result to develop a general approach to the control of electrocyclic processes.  We also aim to investigate the development of unnatural folded materials that plagiarize some of the features of enzymes  - such as positive cooperativity between non-covalent interactions   to generate more efficient asymmetric catalysts.  This multidisciplinary approach focuses on the design and synthesis of new folding backbones, investigation of their folding propensities and the evolution of catalytic function.  This research program will lead to the development and understanding of new tools essential for the assembly of complex molecules with biological, material or structural value.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'NEW ECONOMICAL AND ECOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS TO REDUCE RAW MATERIAL COSTS OF CEMENT BASED PRODUCTS BY UTILIZING MICRO TECHNOLOGY'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The project aims to develop an economical and ecological cutting of the raw material costs of cementitious products by development of a waste based micro filler composite for the concrete industry and at the same time providing an economical and ecological improvements in the technical properties of cementitious products.Raw material and production costs of cementitious products have increased and are increasing all the time. Simultaneously, as structures of tomorrow become larger and more complex, the materials of construction will be required to meet more demanding standards of performance than those in force today. High performance concrete should have properties such as high workability, dimensional stability, and strength, and long durability in service. This trend has led to the use of higher cement contents and more admixtures in cementitious products. This concerns especially Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) and dry product pre-mixes.Microstructure of concrete and mortars has a great impact on the properties of fresh and hardened concrete. The project seeks to improve these properties through development of waste based filler composites, which can help to optimise microstructure of cementitious products and reduce the need for high cement and admixture amounts.The optimised micro-composite is a potential commercial product for the manufacture of high performance mortars and concretes (ready mixed concretes, precast concrete products including SCC and dry pre-mix products), and has the potential of improving the competitiveness of the companies by reducing their raw material costs and of increasing their turnover either as end users or as producers of micro filler composites, or both.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Exploring the Potential for Therapeutic Lineage Reprogramming of Diabetes' (TheLiRep).

assistant: **Concept**

Diabetes is a degenerative disease that affects over 350 million persons worldwide. Type 1 and type 2 diabetes are associated with either destruction or dysfunction of pancreatic insulin-producing β cells. Despite the availability of insulin as treatment to temporarily restore the glucostasis, this remedy is unable to avoid either the acute dangers of hypoglycemia or the long-term complications of hyperglycemia. Eventually, the challenge of treating diabetes centers on the replacement of pancreatic β cells. Due to serious organ shortage for pancreas transplantation, cell-based therapy represents the most promising option and different potential sources for new β cells are currently being explored, including embryonic stem cells and other cell types. A particularly attractive therapeutic strategy is to convert liver adult cells of diabetic patients into functional pancreatic β cells through lineage reprogramming. Fate conversion of liver to pancreas is conceivable for numerous physiological and developmental reasons, and, possibly, suitable for future clinical applications. My ERC-funded project (ERC Starting Grant “HEPATOPANCREATIC”) is focused on the molecular mechanisms underlying cellular plasticity between liver and pancreatic cells. This study has led to the identification of a novel factor, whose ectopic expression converts mouse liver cells into pancreatic cells. Here, we propose a defined and focused set of measures aimed at: 1) extending these findings in human liver cells to assess whether this strategy may be exploited to develop an autologous cell-based therapy of diabetes; and 2) elaborating a solid intellectual property strategy. The “TheLiRep” Proof of Concept (PoC) funding will ensure the full exploitation of the ERC idea and bridge the gap between my re
