user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'The Mediterranean as a Laboratory of Globalisation: The Franco-Ottoman Cloth Trade, 1683-c.1715'.

assistant: **Concept**

In the early 1700s, France overcame English and Dutch competition to become the Ottoman Empires main European trading partner. To date, historians have focussed on Jean-Baptiste Colbert, Louis XIVs (in)famous minister, and his influence on the crucial Franco-Ottoman trade in woollen cloth. Yet they have neglected the boom in this trade after Colberts death in 1683, overseen by Jean-Baptiste de Lagny, the director general of commerce from 1686 to 1700.By treating the Mediterranean as a laboratory of globalisation, GlobalMed asks why this trade flourished. Moreover, it explores the trades significance in influencing the states global commercial policy, analysing how Frances Levantine success shaped its engagement with (non-)colonial markets overseas. In this way, the project will challenge current orthodoxies on the rise of the Atlantic world by reconsidering the early modern states role as a motor of globalisation and industrial development.

assistant: **Concept**

Our network aims at analysing the conditions of possibility and realisation of an European space of research in the social sciences. The first objective is to describe the barriers, which impede the emergence of such a trans-national, multidisciplinary space.Our team plans to achieve the task by a systematically comparative approach of the history of the social sciences within each of the represented national contexts. Intercultural divergences and convergences prevailing within the European space will be identified; obstacles and filters slowing down if not blocking the free circulation of ideas will be delineated.Our network wishes to improve the social conditions for a rational dialogue between participants. In such a perspective, its ambition consists of constructing the epistemological bases for an effective comparative science, which is seen as a pre-requisite to the formation of a European space of research in the social sciences. Such an epistemological platform appears to be crucial since the social sciences lag behind in relation to the rapid transformation of social realities by the constitution of a European supra-national space and the current process of globalisation.In order to contribute to the pre-figuration of an integrated European social science, our network will parallely conduct two scientific investigations: - a general study of the apparently most international topic: the production and circulation of literary and artistic works in Europe; - a study of the genesis of the field o f social sciences in Europe of which autonomy is relatively weak with regard to economic and political factors in each of the countries concerned.This entails that the role of the State in these two domains will be scrutinized. This double approach is to be reinforced by

user: Describe how 'Intuitive editing of visual appearance from real-world datasets' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Computer-generated imagery is now ubiquitous in our society, spanning fields such as games and movies, architecture, engineering, or virtual prototyping, while also helping create novel ones such as computational materials. With the increase in computational power and the improvement of acquisition techniques, there has been a paradigm shift in the field towards data-driven techniques, which has yielded an unprecedented level of realism in visual appearance. Unfortunately, this leads to a series of problems, identified in this proposal: First, there is a disconnect between the mathematical representation of the data and any meaningful parameters that humans understand; the captured data is machine-friendly, but not human friendly. Second, the many different acquisition systems lead to heterogeneous formats and very large datasets. And third, real-world appearance functions are usually nonlinear and high-dimensional. As a result, visual appearance datasets are increasingly unfit to editing operations, which limits the creative process for scientists, engineers, artists and practitioners in general.  There is an immense gap between the complexity, realism and richness of the captured data, and the flexibility to edit such data. We believe that the current research path leads to a fragmented space of isolated solutions, each tailored to a particular dataset and problem. We propose a research plan at the theoretical, algorithmic and application levels, putting the user at the core. We will learn key relevant appearance features in terms humans understand, from which intuitive, predictable editing spaces, algorithms, and workflows will be defined. In order to ensure usability and foster creativity, we will also extend our research to efficient simulation of visual appearance

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'A Photovoltaic Plant with thermal co-generation' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The main idea behind SPIRE project is simple: the typical mirrors of CSP-Tower plants are substituted by PV panels with an integrated optical filter that spectrally splits the solar radiation. The filter lets the radiation used efficiently by PV panel go through (mainly visible light) while reflects 40% of the energy (mainly blue light and infrared). SPIRE has no loses compared to a 1 axis PV Plant, and converts into thermal energy (using a Tower-CSP-TES system) the heat that today overheats PV cells. The thermal energy generated can then be used for several applications. Main and most immediate is the use of thermal energy storage (TES) as reliable and cost effective alternative to batteries for PV Plants. But many other uses of this smart combination of electricity and heat can be addressed: desalination, industrial process heat, agriculture, city heating/cooling, etc. SPIRE is completely zero CO2 emissions, suitable for off-grid solutions, no need of fuel supply, scalable and adaptable to some other technologies. SPIRE customized filter designs can be adapted to every location, particular light spectrum and dedicated applications and operation modes.Moving to performance and economical parameters, SPIRE beats all: better utilization of solar spectrum which leads to higher plan efficiencies, better operational performance of the solar field (no dumped energy due to overloading of TES+turbine capacity, utilization of diffuse radiation increasing the solar resource), less land footprint per installed power,  more  competitive  prices  than  PV  +  batteries, bankable solution for 25-30 years of expected lifetime of the power plant , no degradation as silver mirrors (filters are made of inorganic oxides), less attenuation than current CSP towers, scalable with no need of

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'AIrbrush: a transdiciplinary value-sensitive study of biases and stereotypes in AI-generated Global Health images, and their significance for science and society' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

This project engages with the proliferation of abusive and biased stereotypes from colonial and humanitarian photography through generative AI technology, and investigates their consequences for science and society. This is a pressing issue: AI simultaneously absorbs and learns from real images, which, in the case of global health, have been marked by racism, coloniality and sexism, meaning that given images become a cluster for generative AI to learn from biased depictions and perpetuate negative stereotypes. Such cycles have to be studied and eliminated in order to move toward more equal postcolonial societies and promote a culture of value-sensitive depictions of vulnerable people. The project builds and greatly expands on the emerging methodology of purposeful generation and value-sensitive evaluation of AI-generated Global Health visuals, recently pioneered by Prof. Koen Peeters (the supervisor) and Dr. Alenichev, and encapsulated in a Lancet Global Health Article in August 2023. Offering a first-ever systematic study of AI-generated Global Heath visuals, AIrbrush sets five core objectives and asks: How should the international community account for generative AI as part of the internationally set goal of decolonizing Global Health and its visual culture, and tackle biased depictions of race, class, gender, and other socially enacted markers of similarity and difference? AIrbrush answers this question by analysing the substrate of the real global health images AI learns from, evaluates the learning progress and the reproduction and modification of such tropes by AI, theorizes this relationship and outlines societal outcomes with regard to the future of respectful depictions in the AI era. The findings from this study will be encapsulated as academic articles, a the

assistant: **Impact**

The overall objective of SEABAT is to develop a full-electric maritime hybrid concept based on (1) combining modular high-energy batteries and high-power batteries, (2) novel converter concepts and (3) production technology solutions derived from the automotive sector. A modular approach will reduce component costs (battery, convertor) so that unique ship designs can profit from economies of scale by using standardised low-cost modular components. The concept is suitable for future battery generations and high-power components that may have higher power densities or are based on different chemistries. Expected results: optimal full-electric hybrid modular solution, minimising the battery footprint and reducing the oversizing (from up to 10 times down to max. 2 times). Validating as a 300 kWh system (full battery system test) at TRL 5, and virtually validating the solution for batteries of 1 MWh and above, using 300 kWh system P-HiL tests.The result will be a validated hybrid battery solution for capacities of 1 MWh and beyond, a roadmap for type approval and a strategy towards standardisation for (among others) ferries and short sea shipping. The solution will deliver a 35-50% lower total cost of ownership (TCO) of maritime battery systems, including 15-30% lower CAPEX investment, 50% lower costs of integration at the shipyard and a 5% investment cost recuperation after the useful life in the vessel. The SEABAT consortium unites all the necessary expertise for developing the hybrid topology and implementing it in the industry. The market pick-up of the SEABAT solution is maximised by having 20 shipbuilders and integrators in the consortium; they are represented by the SOERMAR association.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Acousto-Magnetic Micro/Nanorobots for Biomedical Applications' (SONOBOTS).

assistant: **Concept**

Micro/nanorobots can transform many aspects of medicine by enabling tasks, such as delivering drugs or genes precisely to targeted areas, transducing force on individual cells or tissues, performing biopsies, and facilitating non-invasive surgeries. Numerous propulsion mechanisms have been developed, but their low propulsion speed, lack of biocompatibility, and poor navigation capabilities have limited their use. The objective of this proposal is to develop wireless micro/nanorobots using acoustic and magnetic actuation modalities that will be used to navigate in microfluidics and zebrafish disease models to help better understand and treat diseases. The combination of ultrasound and magnetic fields is capable of overcoming the limitations encountered using a single actuation technique, and both are used extensively in clinical diagnostics and therapeutics. This proposal is divided into three research areas. 1) To date, no systematic studies have been conducted utilizing micro/nanorobotics on living animals. The research will address many of the fundamental challenges of using micro/nanorobots in living animals, followed by testing in microfluidics, 3D arbitrarily-shaped fluidic devices, and the vasculature of zebrafish embryos. Propulsion will be studied in the direction of and against blood flow, a 3D propulsion will be developed, and a swarm of nanorobots will be studied. 2) A platform will be developed that involves the trapping and manipulation of nanorobots in an animal model, such as zebrafish embryos. 3) We will develop an active drug delivery platform combined with other methods to study numerous disease models using the models based on live zebrafish embryos. We believe the results of the proposed research will have a significant impact in the field.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Bridges to assess the production and impact of migration narratives' (BRIDGES).

assistant: **Concept**

BRIDGES aims to understand the causes and consequences of migration narratives in a context of increasing politicisation and polarisation. By focusing on six current/former EU countries (FR, GE, HU, IT, SP, and UK), it has a three-fold objective. First, at the academic level, it aims to understand the processes of narrative production and impact and their mutual interaction. This entails analysing: a) why some narratives have become dominant over others in public and political debates from a historical perspective; b) how narratives shape individual attitudes in Europe and potential migrants’ decisions in countries of origin and transit; c) how narratives impact policy decisions and outputs both at the national and EU levels; and d) how individuals and policymakers become in turn narrative producers (‘shaped shapers’) and influence each other. Second, at the policy level, it aims to foster evidence-based policies. By developing a typology of government strategies for responding to populist narratives, we will provide policymakers with recommendations on how to redress a tendency towards increasingly symbolic policies in the field of migration and integration. Third, at the societal level, our objective is to create spaces for dialogue between actors involved in narrative production as well as to exchange innovative good practices among artistic communities, civil society organisations and migrant communities focused on how to build more inclusive accounts. The project objectives can only be achieved if we bridge – hence the name BRIDGES – several critical gaps between disciplines and between research and practice. A key added value of the project is its interdisciplinarity and co-production approaches, including three interactive workshops with policy, media and civil s

user: Describe how 'Professional cross-priming for ovary and prostate cancer' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Immune responses are initiated by antigen presentation mediated by dendritic cells (DC). There is a minority subset of DC highly specialised in starting up cytotoxic T lymphocytes able to kill tumor cells. PROCROP aims to develop in three pilot clinical trials a suitable individualized cancer vaccine technology for castration resistant prostate cancer and metastatic cancer of the ovary that would complement currently available therapies to increase efficacy. The project applies recent compelling knowledge on the identity of the main antigen-presenting DC subsets for vaccine elicitation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes endowed with the ability to seek and destroy tumour cells (such immune mechanism is termed crosspriming). This unique opportunity for superior DCs for immunotherapy comes from the fact that Miltenyi, a successful European biotech company, has the necessary proprietary reagents (anti-BDCA-3 monoclonal antibody and immunomagnetic selection technology), as well as the expertise to clinically develop a strategy of DC isolation and short-term cell culture for immunotherapy. From the point of view of the tumor antigens, processed autologous tumor material will be mixed with defined common tumor antigens in the form of recombinant proteins. This novel combination will permit stronger and broader antitumor immune responses and more accurate monitoring of the ensuing immunity against the tumors. These features should make the novel DC vaccine more efficacious than the currently US-approved DC vaccine PROVENGE and other DCs preparations undergoing trials, such as those derived from monocytes. Three of the leading groups in immunotherapy of cancer in Europe would join forces to develop this individualized cell therapy technology in clinical trials for two highly prevalent

user: Draft an impact statement for 'An innovative technology platform for the enhanced treatment of industrial wastewaters achieving cost reductions, electricity generation and enabling water reuse for non-potable applications', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Major water using and discharging industries are of significant European economic importance, generating >€1500 billion turnover and employing >7.5 million people in 220,000 companies (90% SMEs). With continued European growth in demand for water, finite reservoirs of readily-treatable water, rising energy costs and increased environmental legislation, EU industry is experiencing significant competitive threats with regard to cost-efficient supply and treatment of water.Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) utilise electrochemically-active microbes to convert the inherent energy of organic chemical bonds to electrical energy. MFCs encompass unique features that offer advantages for the treatment of wastewater, including: efficient electricity generation; minimal sludge formation; operation at low temperature; and modular cell design, enabling operation at small scale and customisation to specific end-user requirements.A core group of SMEs have identified a unique opportunity to advance MFC technology for industrial wastewater treatment, thereby generating sustainable and competitive business growth. Key innovations include MFC integration with photocatalytic advanced oxidation and a membraneless MFC air cathode design; and a scalable cost-efficient MFC and architecture design incorporating innovative process monitoring & control strategies. System features and benefits include:- Capital cost equivalence with existing aerobic treatment solutions- Significant operational cost savings, realised through:- Recovery of organic content as electrical energy & achieving system sustainability (self-powering);- Enhanced treatment efficiency enabling water reuse for on-site non-potable applications;- Significant cost reductions for sludge disposal and treated wastewater discharge to sewer- F
