user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'New performances of nitrogen cast iron and advanced technologies for their characterization in smes foundries'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Nowadays it is obvious that the specific requirements of materials are improving more and more, in terms of performance, functionality and costs. Regarding more precisely cast iron components, the ability to make new alloys with a higher added value reflecting the quality demanded by the market will be achieved by developing new processes in order to enhance the material performance (i.e., its mechanical and physical properties). She aim of the project is to focuse on lamellar graphite (LG) cast iron which has a key role for a wide range of applications in the foundry industry, such as cylinder liners, block engines, brakes or compressors, and thermal components, etc. As a matter of fact, in this specific case, the effect of nitrogen introduced in LG cast iron will lead to the very favourable effects listed herebelow: - An easier way to reach the limit value of 300 Mpa (Rt) - An increase of the Young's modulus . High thermal diffusity and adequate sliding surface. This technical approach will improve the mechanical behaviour (i.e., stress strain) or the lithtening of the components. Moreover nitrogen contained in LG cast iron will allow to obtain an adequate structure (i.e. pearlitic matrix) without the necessity to use any addition products (such as Cu, Ni and Mo), especially for the duty and thick components. The objectives of the project are (1) to define the evolution law of the strength and the Young's modulus a function of the nitrogen content in LG cast iron, (2) to study the occurrence of nitrogen gas porosity as function of different process criteria surface fension, hydraulic pressure, kinetics , (3) to determine the nitrogen content in LG cast iron through up to date nitrogen probes, and (4) to implement in the SMEs foundries all the optimized procedures/prac

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Polariton Assisted White Light Generation in Organic Light-Emitting Diodes' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The global lighting market consumes 20 % of total electric power generated, producing an enormous 400 million metric tons of CO2 annually. The need for more efficient light sources has driven the blossoming of light-emitting diode (LED) research and technology. However, inorganic LEDs for solid-state lighting contain rare earth and toxic heavy metal traces that have negative environmental impacts. Recently, organic LEDs (OLEDs) have been introduced as promising general lighting sources. Unlike LEDs, OLEDs can be fabricated using energy-efficient processes and ecological materials. Therefore, the hazards of LEDs can be addressed by shifting to OLED lighting. Currently, the best OLED lamps are limited to 50 lm/W and lifetimes of around 5000 hours. To convince the market to embrace OLED for general lighting, white OLEDs (WOLEDs) need to reach the luminous efficacy and luminance of inorganic white LEDs (100 lm/W, 10000 hours lifespan).       In the PLAS-OLED project, to address this need, I propose the fabrication of a novel WOLED architecture. The new idea here is the conversion of monochromatic OLEDs into WOLEDs with polariton modes. Polariton modes are exciton-dressed degenerate states, meaning that polaritons can be utilized to convert a single-color emitting exciton (e.g., green color) to multi-color emission (e.g., blue and red). Moreover, polaritons states have been reported to accelerate emission rates in organic semiconductors, and to induce reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) for harvesting non-radiative triplet excitons or converting slow phosphorescence to fast fluorescence. Thus, polaritons can also increase the luminous efficacy and luminance of WOLEDs. By conducting comprehensive photoluminescence and electroluminescence experiments, I aim to demonstrate that

user: Draft an impact statement for 'A theory of global memory systems', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Spontaneous activity accounts for most of what the brain does and is likely to be key for information processing in the brain, but its function is still quite mysterious. Two key spontaneous activity processes are the Default Mode Network, a set of areas that are most markedly connected and active during behavioural idleness, and memory replay, the spontaneous reactivation of neural patterns occurring during experience. I will test the hypothesis that the DMN plays a key role in memory replay processes. This theory, if confirmed, would bring important conceptual advances: to memory studies, as it would provide a mechanism supporting the formation and consolidation of complex memory representations. To the Default Mode Network field, as replay can be used as the “Rosetta Stone” to decipher the computations the DMN performs, moving beyond the connectivity, dynamics, and cognitive correlates, typical focus of DMN research.I will explore this theory by an experimental study of spontaneous neural activity over the whole mouse cortex, going from large field-of-view 2-photon imaging and high-volume electrophysiology for the single neuron scale, to voltage sensitive imaging and electrocorticography, to resting state fMRI, in animals running memory tasks. I will characterize the network dynamics and the encoding and replay of memories by quantifying conveyed information and assessing its nature (e.g. about simple percepts vs. complex events, remote vs. memories). I will also measure critical behaviour in these networks, and test whether neuronal avalanches, that occur in spontaneous activity, play a role in conveying information across distant brain areas. I will model the consequences of these mechanisms for computation by formulating a machine learning based model of memory fo

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Personalized medical device for the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD based on EEG biomarkers and Neurofeedback Training' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

NEWROFEED aims at setting a new standard of care for children suffering from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).  ADHD@Home is the diagnosis and treatment medical device, developed by Mensia in project NEWROFEED, to achieve this goal. In order to optimise success rates, ADHD@Home is based on an EEG biomarker-based personalised medicine approach to treat ADHD children with state-of-the-art personalized Neurofeedback Training. This patient-centered solution is delivered at home, with supervision by ADHD specialists. As an efficacious alternative to treatment by psychoactive medication, the expected clinical outcomes include normalized social behaviour and improved school performance.ADHD@Home delivers physiological lasting normalization of brain activity, using the child’s endogenous neuronal plasticity, to resolve his or her attention and hyperactivity problems. Its unique technology and design enable it to achieve two critical clinical objectives:1.To identify the root cause of the ADHD for a given child by quantifying, in real-time, deviations in EEG oscillation biomarkers allowing the clinician to select and adjust the Neurofeedback protocols.2.To deliver the personalized Neurofeedback protocols on an affordable and user-friendly device, enabling optimal training at home under remote medical supervision. This clinical breakthrough is made possible by Mensia’s cloud-based real time quantitative EEG analysis technology. ADHD@Home will be validated for efficacy in the NEWROFEED Clinical Trial. This will pave the way for a successful commercial launch in 2018 to deliver on our promise of efficacious physiological treatment for millions of ADHD children.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Product Passport through Twinning of Circular Value Chains', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The constantly increasing demand of scarce resources and critical raw materials (CRMs), requires efficient usage of resources - reuse and recycling of materials-  and responsible waste management and prevention. The circular economy’s model establishes a virtuous cycle where products and resources can be reused, repurposed and recycled to maximize productivity of resources, to reduce waste and by products that can become raw materials (RMs) entering in other industrial processes, thus reducing the depletion of natural resources and the  overall environmental effects on climate change. Plooto aims to deliver a Circular and Resilient Information System (CRIS) to support manufacturers in their green, digital and circular transition. CRIS enables waste reduction and end-to-end traceability of Secondary Raw Materials (SRM) through interconnected digital services for real-time decision making, monitoring and certification of materials and products. Plooto delivers: a) a transformation framework based on traceability strategies for materials/products per business case, with reference processes for SRM use from waste deposit to new products, and governance models for circular value chains; b) ICT tools for modelling product, production processes and supply chains, as an aggregation of individual component Digital Twins with cognition capabilities (cognitive Digital Twins – CDTs); c)  Data will feed RM-recovery and waste dataspaces allowing the provision of material certification and  product passport; and d) A circular sustainability balanced scorecard (framework+toolkit) to assess impact of decision-making at CDT level based on various KPIs.The solution will be piloted in three different circular supply chains demonstrating waste reduction, reusability of scrap and production

assistant: **Innovation**

I request ERC funding to set up a dedicated science team to detect, for the first time, the redshifted 21-cm radio line emission of neutral hydrogen (HI) with LOFAR coming from the first billion years of the age of the Universe (the  Epoch of Reionization  and the  Dark Ages ).The study of this pristine neutral hydrogen gas is a rapidly emerging field of astrophysics, both theoretically and observationally. A number of expert international groups in the US/Australia (MWA), China (21CMA), India (GMRT) and the Netherlands (LOFAR) are contending to be the first to detect this hydrogen gas. My proposed ERC project is high-risk and high-gain; however, all risks are controlled and the scientific rewards of detection of neutral hydrogen at these early times would have a tremendous impact and open a new frontier in astronomy. The study of neutral hydrogen, as in the nearby Universe, will revolutionize our knowledge of astrophysical processes in the first phases of the Universe, just after recombination.The LOFAR Epoch-of-Reionization Key-Science Project (LOFAR EoR-KSP), of which I am a PI, aims to be the first, and if being the first fails, to provide the best detection of this neutral HI gas. Indeed, we are in a very good starting position to reach both goals. Our team has access to the most sensitive telescope available for these studies (LOFAR) and leads a Key Science Project with guaranteed observing time. Our KSP is rapidly ramping up to the observational phase of the project (2010), and now more than ever requires dedicated scientists that together in a small team maximize the scientific return of the project (i.e. detect and study HI). If successful, our research team would be in a position to start leading similar projects with the Square Kilometer Array (SKA). It is cr

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Converting N2 directly into amines through multimetallic catalysis' (N2-CONVERT).

assistant: **Innovation**

Nitrogen containing molecules (amines) are ubiquitous in our daily lives. The N atoms in these essential compounds originate from dinitrogen (N2), but often undergo a vastly energy inefficient route to be incorporated into molecules. Hence, it has been a long-standing goal to develop catalysts that enable the direct conversion of N2 into amines to provide an efficient and sustainable alternative for amine synthesis. While various metal complexes enable the stoichiometric conversion of N2 into amines, a key problem preventing catalytic conversion lies in the incompatibility of the required harsh reductants with the reagents for making N–C bonds.In this project, I aim to develop well-defined molecular catalysts wherein multiple metals work together to directly convert N2 into amines. To this end, I will develop innovative ligand platforms based on rigid core scaffolds, designed to bind 2, 3 or 4 metal centers in close proximity. In a systematic combined experimental and computational study, I will obtain fundamental understanding on how aspects like metal-metal separation, number of metals, reduction state or accessibility of metal sites, affect the cooperative binding and activation of N2.  This will enable me to identify design parameters of multimetallic complexes that enable N–C bond formation at metal-bound N2 without requiring harsh reductants. With this information, I will rationally design multimetallic complexes that enable the direct (electro)catalytic conversion of N2 into amines. My strong background and track record in ligand design, N2 activation, multimetallic coordination chemistry and catalysis puts me in a unique position to realize the highly ambitious goals of this project. The N2-CONVERT project will provide a new paradigm on how we look at N2, from a

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Microcircuits for behavioral modulation of sensory cortex'.

assistant: **Concept**

An outstanding question in Neuroscience is to understand how the brain integrates sensory and non-sensory information. Strikingly, this integration takes place even in the primary sensory cortices, where sensory processing is strongly modulated by non-sensory context. For example, in primary visual cortex (V1), responses depend not only on visual stimulation, but also on locomotion (Niell and Stryker 2010, Neuron 65). Specifically, locomotion controls the spatial integration of V1 neurons, reducing the suppression they receive from the surround of their receptive fields (Ayaz, et al. 2013, Curr Biol 23). I will investigate the neural mechanisms underlying this phenomenon. My working hypothesis is that different classes of cortical interneurons contribute in a very specific manner to surround suppression and to modulation by locomotion. I will test this through a combination of experiment and computational modeling. First, I will measure how the different neural classes are activated for different stimulus sizes during rest and running. I will use 2-photon imaging to record the calcium activity of neurons in the superficial layers of V1 in mouse lines where I can simultaneously identify the classes of the interneurons thanks to a red fluorescent protein. Second, I will summarize these measures with a neural network model in which the different classes of neurons will be described by different variables, to match the experimental data. The circuits and computations uncovered by this project are likely to generalize to other areas of the cerebral cortex, and therefore to constitute fundamental organizational principles for cortical integration of internal and external inputs.
