user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Demonstration of Large Scale Biomass Co-Firing and Supply Chain Integration' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The DEBCO project responds to the need for further operational experience in high share biomass co-firing using different type of fuels. The project aim to demonstrate and assess, on a long term basis, the advanced and innovative co-firing techniques that are capable of achieving higher shares of biomass up to 50% more on a thermal basis.  These objectives will be achieved through a programme of research activities, large-scale demonstrations and long-term monitoring of the key co-firing concepts. The selection of four representative demonstration sites will allow a long-term monitoring and assessment of the most relevant applications such as: different fuel supply chain scenarios, fuel qualities (agriculture residues, energy crops, wood pellets etc.), and advanced co-firing techniques of different pf-power plants burning lignite and bituminous coals. To evaluate the role of co-firing in a sustainable energy market, social-economical aspects such as impact on local fuel markets are also in the focus of the project. The successful outcome to the DEBCO project will provide the electricity supply industry in Europe with very valuable, and well documented, plant experience on a number of the key technical options available for increasing the share of biomass co-firing in large coal-fired power plants, and for the diversification of the range of biomass feedstock types that can be co-fired.  This experience will be relevant for future co-firing projects involving both the retrofit of existing plants and for advanced coal-fired power plants.    This will assist the ongoing efforts in most European countries to increase the portion of electricity supplied from renewable sources.

user: Describe how 'Cell-Based Models of Human Mucosal Immunity with Multiple Commercial Applications' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

HUMUNITY is a PhD school which shall train young scientists in novel approaches to the study of human mucosal immunity by the use of advanced engineered human cell culture models. The scientific goal is to develop integrated cell-biological models in which cultured human primary cells mimic the architecture and the interactions of the original tissue, by uniting powerful classical cell culture skills, innovative material science and advanced high-content detection systems. Specifically, students will study the innate inflammatory response to agents presented at mucosal surfaces of lung and gut, in both healthy and pathological conditions, by implementing novel in vitro systems that robustly reproduce the reactivity of human tissues in vivo. These models will also have multiple industrially-exploitable applications, from preclinical testing of candidate therapeutics in personalised medicine approaches to screening of drugs and biosafety assessment, thereby reducing significantly the need of animal experimentation.Four trainees will experience an intersectoral training programme encompassing a 18-month internship in a UK SME expert in isolation and culture of human primary cells (AvantiCell Science), and 18 months in academic institutions (the Italian research organisation CNR, with secondments to the Universities of Pisa and Salzburg). Trainees enrolled in the PhD programme in Clinical Physiopathology and Pharmacology at the University of Pisa will engage in training-by-research, and will participate in a series of scientific and technical training courses provided by each institution, in addition to joint scientific meetings and transferable skills courses organised by the associated management partner ALTA. Eventually, fellows will gain experience in technology transfe

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'TheoreticAl Study of MoleculAr Spin PlAsmonics for Nanoscale CommunIcAtions' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Communication networks and molecular plasmonics are two scientific disciplines, which at first sight might seem completely unrelated but which are about to meet in the emerging fields of nano-networks and nano-communication. Currently networks on chips are still using electronics, which is limited by dissipation losses and low speed. Optics cannot be used on nanoscale because of the diffraction limit of light. Plasmonics on the other hand offers high speeds and can be confined in nanoscale waveguides. In order for it to be really applicable to nano-networks, active devices such as switches and repeaters have to be created. A promising path to explore in the search for active devices on the nanoscale is the coupling between molecules and plasmons. The project aims to study the coupling between archetypal optically active molecules, the metal phthalocyanines and surface plasmon polaritons. It will also look at the scattering of plasmons from molecules and their subsequent propagation in order to identify possible anisotropy, which would allow for the application of the molecules as a plasmonic switch. A preliminary theoretical study has given promising results in this direction. Thus, even though theoretical, the project could have important practical results. The third objective is even more audacious: it aims at looking for interactions between the molecular spin state and the surface plasmons. Such an interaction would constitute huge breakthrough and allow control of the plasmons on quantum level as well as single-shot readout of the molecular spin. Furthermore the project will allow the researcher to undertake an inter-disciplinary experience and establish her as an independent scientist. In this way she can fully utilize her multi-disciplinary, multi-sector backgrou

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Modelling the genomic landscapes of selection and speciation' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Understanding how natural selection, random genetic drift and demographic events interact to generate and maintain genetic and species diversity has been the central focus of population genetics for many decades. We now have the necessary genome sequence data to make detailed and powerful inferences about the evolutionary past of populations and species, yet our ability to meaningfully interpret such data has remained fundamentally limited.This project will use a combination of theory, development of new inference tools and a large-scale comparative analyses of genome data and has two principal aims:First to develop a general, statistical framework for making inferences about the joint action of past  selection and demography from genome sequence data. This will be achieved using analytic calculations and approximations for the joint distribution of linked polymorphic sites. We will use these results to develop new methods to quantify the genome-wide rates of positive and background selection and to scan for genomic outliers of divergence between and positive selection within species. The new methods will be tested using simulations and data from model insects (Drosophila and Heliconius).Second, we will apply the new inference approach to genome data for 20 species pairs of European butterflies and conduct a systematic comparison of the demographic and selective forces involved in speciation. This will reveal how repeatable speciation processes are both in terms of the demographic and selective events, and the genes and genomic architectures involved. Specifically, we will test whether selection during speciation is concentrated at chromosomal rearrangements and/or candidate gene families involved in mate recognition and host plant adaptation. This project will fundamen

user: Explain how 'Advanced refinement techniques for the securing of silicon feedstock' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Objectives The main objective of the ARTIST project is the demonstration of an economical solution to one of the most crucial problems that the Photovoltaic (PV) industry currently encounters: the supply with silicon feedstock for a strongly growing PV solar cell and module production on multicrystalline silicon substrates. The strategy of ARTIST aims at adapting and modifying processing techniques on all levels of PV production in order to make a wider quality range of silicon feedstock usable for PV production and thus, to become less dependent on the currently used electronic grade silicon feedstock and the increasing market prices of this material. The project consortium groups together all established European industries in the field of multicrystalline PV production (Photowatt International SA, Bayer AG and Eurosolare SpA) with leading R&D institutes like IMEC, CNRS and FHGISE. Technical approach - two innovative refinement techniques for low quality silicon feedstock will be demonstrated: (i) plasma purification, suitable for the refinement of upgraded metallurgical grade silicon and, (ii) evaporation and condensation of heavily doped n-type silicon. Both feedstock sources cannot be used by the PV industry at the moment. - the refined feedstock will be crystallised by directional solidification and cut into wafers of 200 mm thickness. Further purification by directional solidification will be investigated. - solar cell processing steps, such as passivation and gettering techniques, will be modified, giving rise to further improvements of the material quality on wafer level. - material analysis and characterisation will be carried out during all development stages. Expected achievements and exploitation The technical goal of ARTIST is to refine low quality silicon

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Recognition by close remote sensing of soil surface features in mediterranean viticultural environment; monitoring of the effect of agricultural practice' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Research objectives and content  The proposed project aims to develop light but reliable methods to study soil surface features and parcel structure, and to develop a model of soil surface condition recognition under heterogeneous culture, vine in the presented project, by means of close remote sensing. The first objective is to establish a typification of surface conditions. Infiltrometric properties of these different conditions being known from elsewhere, the typification by remote sensing should result in an estimation of the susceptibility of soils to runoff. The studied zone is a catchment of about 100 ha, the Roujan catchment, studied since several cultural seasons. A second objective is to produce a model, based on training sites, of spatialization of soil surface features, based on structuring geographic information derived from a GIS analysis. A final objective of the PhD thesis is to produce, at a scale of some 10,000 hectares, a classification of runoff-susceptibility according to several evolutional alternatives of soil occupation and agricultural practice on the vine-parcels. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) Main training objective for the candidate is a further specialisation in application of remote sensing and GIS to soil science, opening wide perspectives to assist future scientific developments and their application. The candidate will also benefit from the applied, agronomic, character of the project. Links with industry /industrial relevance (22)

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Regulation of gene expression by diet and hormones. The role of usf proteins' (1994-1998) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

USF factors are ubiquitous proteins that belong to the class of b-HLH-ZIP transcription factors. Thesefactors contain relatively small domains that mediate DNA binding (proteins generally bind a cognate DNA sequence terrned E-box: CANNTG) and dimerization. Purification of USF activity from HeLa cells has revealed the presence of an heterogeneous complex composed of two polypeptides USF1 and USF2 encoded by different genes; The USF proteins have been recognised as important players in the regulation of tissue-specific genes and recently in the specific response of genes to external modulators, as glucose. Glucose, a major fuel of mammalian tissues induces the transcription of several glycolytic and lipogenie - genes in hepatocytes and adipocytes. In particular, it induces the expression of the liver-type pyruvate kinase (L-PK) gene in the liver through the glucose response element (GIRE). This GIRE consists of two palindromic binding sites for upstream stimulating factor (USF) proteins separated by 5 base pairs.  ? The objective of the project is study the role of USF factors in the glucose response element using primary culture of hepatocytes isolated from transgenic mice which do not express the USF factors. hrst, we analyse, by molecular biology techniques, the effect of the absence of USF proteins in the L-PK gene' as model of the glucose-dependent regulation of gene expression and, subsequently in other genes whose expression are also regulated by the sugar. The research unit has achieved the USF2 g'ene knockout by homologous recombination and has initiated the inactivation of USF1 gene (project in which I will be also involved).- Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact)  'l'he results in vivo are influenced by so many factors t-hat it is har to dra

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Underspecification in spoken and written discourse: interpretation, compensation and cognitive implications' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

This research project focuses on underspecification, i.e. the imprecise use of words to express meanings which are not fully encoded in the semantics of the words themselves but which rely on common ground and other linguistic cues to be interpreted. I address in particular how underspecification explains the variable use of three French discourse markers and their English equivalents, namely ""et"" / ""and"", ""mais"" / ""but"" and ""donc"" / ""so"". This project seeks to establish the contextual and cognitive constraints to the production and interpretation of underspecified discourse markers by (i) analyzing their distribution and cooccurrence patterns in spoken, written and computer-mediated English and French and (ii) experimentally assessing their impact on discourse processing. This research thus combines corpus-based and experimental methods, as advocated by cognitivists.According to the selfish hypothesis, underspecification is a failure of recipient design and is thus expected to be more frequent in unplanned speech and computer-mediated writing, where speakers/writers are under higher cognitive pressure than in planned speech/writing. Furthermore, this project intends to show that register-sensitive patterns of co-occurrence constitute compensatory strategies designed to minimize the potentially detrimental effect of underspecification in processing complexity. Register and cooccurrence patterns are thus considered as windows onto underlying cognitive mechanisms of interpretation. SELFISH DISCOURSE will elucidate the relationship between a discourse marker and its co(n)text, teasing out their respective semantic-pragmatic contributions to the construal of senses and coming to terms with the theoretical overlap between polysemy, multifunctionality and underspe

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'The meanings of ancestral remains from former German colonies at the University of Strasbourg in contexts of repatriation. Crossed perspectives between Africa, France and Germany' (AnceStra).

assistant: **Innovation**

Over the past years, the return of cultural objects and human remains from former European colonies housed in museums and universities worldwide has been repeatedly described as the most central topic in the cultural heritage sector today. Because the seizure, preservation, and study of ancestral remains participated in a dehumanization of persons from former colonies, repatriations bear several challenges: re-humanize ancestral remains, shed light on the role of science in the development of racial theories, and contribute to a greater dialogue between the global North and South. Despite the crucial cultural, societal and political relevance of repatriations, little is known, from a socio-anthropological perspective, about the meanings that individuals and groups in the global South and North attribute to ancestral remains from former colonies. This is exactly the research question I will tackle. AnceStra departs from a specific collection: the Institute of Anatomy of the University of Strasbourg. Between 1892 and 1911, during the German annexation of Alsace-Lorraine, when the University of Strasbourg had become the Kaiser-Wilhelms-Universität, 149 human remains from the African continent entered the institute, mostly from at the time German colonies: Cameroon, Togo, and present-day Namibia and Tanzania. Demands of repatriation have been addressed to the University by organizations in two of these countries since 2019. Through a ground-breaking, two-way South-North/North-South, South-South and North-North socio-anthropological study in France, Namibia, Tanzania, and to a lesser extent in Cameroon, Germany and Togo, this project will shed light on the meanings individuals and groups demanding repatriation and individuals and groups receiving demands of repatriation attr
