user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Threod THEIA Vertical Take-Off and Landing UAS: Solving unmanned aircraft challenges at sea and elsewhere' (THEIAUAS).

assistant: **Concept**

Unmanned Aerial Systems can bring minimal risk and cost advantages to many civil and military applications when compared to manned vehicles. In most applications the aircraft has to take-off and land on limited space. That makes Vertical Take-off and Landing systems very useful, particularly for tasks on unstable ground or harsh environments.Current unmanned solutions either require large mechanisms for take-off and recover, or, if they have vertical take-off and landing capability, they lack endurance and payload carrying capacity.Threod is currently developing the hybrid multi-task Unmanned Aircraft System THEIA that is capable of combining Vertical Take-off and Landing with the most efficient fixed-wing flying mode. The aircraft has military-grade built, is highly efficient with 10 h flying capacity, can carry and release the heaviest payload on the market (20 kg), and transmit real-time imaging at 150 km distance, making it a unique solution in the market.The market for Unmanned Aerial Systems is booming, particularly for civil applications. THEIA solution fills a market gap in that segment, mainly in maritime environment tasks. Not only Threod solution was designed to handle the maritime operations, there is the need for a solution to measure ship greenhouse gas emissions, so EMSA can enforce EU environmental legislation. The aircraft can also be used by national authorities/institutions in highly needed open sea and coastline surveillance, search and rescue, and delivery of humanitarian aid in harsh terrain.Threod has a track record of €8 million in product sales over the last 3 years, and has gathered substantial interest by global unmanned aircraft service providers, in the areas of environmental monitoring and security. By 2022 Threod is aiming at €10 million i

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'SOlar Calcium-looping integRAtion for Thermo-Chemical  Energy Storage' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Lime (CaO) has been long proposed as an energy-intensive material for the storage of energy in a chemical form by means of carbonation/calcination cycles. This Calcium-looping process (CaL) is the basis of a proven pilot-scale technology for CO2 capture, which is accomplished by carbonation of CaO and its regeneration in a calciner reactor operated under high CO2 partial pressure and high temperature. The wide availability of limestone (<10€/ton) is a key factor for the feasibility of the CaL process. However, the huge potential for lime also to store energy has been inhibited by its propensity to sinter at the high temperatures of the standard CaL cycle for CO2 capture, which reduces dramatically its multicycle conversion. SOCRATCES will be built on previous R&D results of the partners indicating that the CaL process can be integrated into CSP plants for thermochemical energy storage and power generation by means of a simple closed CO2 loop. High global efficiencies (>45%) are achieved under new CaL conditions implying carbonation under high temperature (>850ºC) at high CO2 partial pressure compatible with high-efficiency power blocks. Moreover, fast calcination is carried out at temperatures < 700ºC by the Flash Calcination technology, which allows using mature and inexpensive solar receiver technology. Circulating Fluidized Bed reactors of proven efficiency. The new CSP-CaL integration yields high storage energy density (3.2 GJ/m3) with possible long-time gaps between load and discharge.  SOCRATCES is aimed at demonstrating the feasibility of this integration by erecting a pilot-scale plant that uses cheap, abundant, and non-toxic materials as well as mature solar and fluidized bed reactor technologies.  SOCRATCES will confer the EU a leading role in the development

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Fostering the public debate on university support of female scientists to start a business'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Entrepreneurship now enters European universities through curricula and start-up support systems. Women represent around 50% of students at universities but are very much un-represented in terms of scientific or entrepreneurial careers. Which specific problems prevent women in science choosing this career? Why are entrepreneurship support structures in universities unable to encourage women to think about an entrepreneurial career?FemStart aims to foster public debate on this issue based on the experience of the EU Network ProWomEn, which investigated the promotion of women entrepreneurship in general but could not consider the issue of women scientists starting a business in detail. Public debate on women entrepreneurship is very controversial as common opinion is that there is no need for special support structures for women. But statistics on the number of women starting a company or receiving start-up support show a vast under-representation of women compared to their part in the working world and similarly for women in science and female scientists starting a company.Research on these issues gives clear evidence that women do need special encouragement and are a target group for specific support measures to get involved in entrepreneurship. By organising a series of events at 6 universities in different European regions (South Germany, Spain, the Netherlands, Latvia, Poland and Romania), FemStart will start a debate by inviting experts on entrepreneurship support and education, public body representatives and administrations from the local regions and nearby countries and regions.Female scientists will be invited as well as male representatives from the university and public/private sectors. FemStart will raise awareness for the issue, deliver good practices and al

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Scientific Large-scale Infrastructure for Computing/Communication Experimental Studies – Starting Community'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Today we are experiencing the digital transformation happening with an unprecedented pace, with the community constantly researching on new solutions to support this transformation with ample computational power and connectivity. Towards addressing such research efforts, Research Infrastructure (RI) specific to addressing Digital Sciences research efforts have been deployed worldwide, towards trying to address key aspects contrary to off-the-shelf commercial infrastructure: 1) Full control over the parameters of an experiment, 2) Repeatable experiments regardless of the physical infrastructure, 3) Valid experimental results, which are easy to cross-reference and replicate. As such, several RIs have emerged, offering experimentation services with bleeding edge resources, that otherwise are only offered only in industrial R&D laboratories, with limited functionality. Towards combating these issues, SLICES Research Infrastructure is about to be deployed, aiming to provide high quality experimentation services with emerging technologies around the area of digital sciences (5G/6G, NFV, IoT and Cloud Computing), in an Internet-scale setup. With SLICES-SC, we aspire to foster the community of researchers around this ecosystem, create and strengthen necessary links with relevant industrial stakeholders for the exploitation of the infrastructure, advance existing methods for research reproducibility and experiment repeatability, and design and deploy the necessary solutions for providing SLICES-RI with an easy to access scheme for users from different disciplines. A set of detailed research activities has been designed to materialize these efforts in tools for providing transnational (remote and physical) access to the facility, as well as virtual access to the data produced ove

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'SONICOM - Transforming auditory-based social interaction and communication in AR/VR'.

assistant: **Concept**

Immersive audio is our everyday experience of being able to hear and interact with sounds around us. Simulating spatially located sounds in virtual or augmented reality (VR/AR) must be done in a unique way for each individual and currently requires expensive and time-consuming individual measurements, making it commercially unfeasible. Furthermore, the impact of immersive audio beyond perceptual metrics such as presence and localisation is still an unexplored area of research, specifically when related with social interaction, entering the behavioural and cognitive realms. SONICOM will revolutionise the way we interact socially within AR/VR environments and applications by leveraging methods from Artificial Intelligence (AI) to design a new generation of immersive audio technologies and techniques, specifically looking at personalisation and customisation of the audio rendering. Using a data-driven approach, it will explore, map and model how the physical characteristics of spatialised auditory stimuli can influence observable behavioural, physiological, kinematic, and psychophysical reactions of listeners within social interaction scenarios. The developed techniques and models will be evaluated in an ecologically valid manner, exploiting AR/VR simulations as well as real-life scenarios, and developing appropriate hardware and software proofs-of-concept. Finally, in order to reinforce the idea of reproducible research and promoting future development and innovation in the area of auditory-based social interaction, the SONICOM Ecosystem will be created, which will include auditory data closely linked with model implementations and immersive audio rendering components.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Assessing the multiple Impacts of the Common Agricultural Policies (CAP) on Rural Economies' (CAP).

assistant: **Innovation**

European rural areas are undergoing major changes, including the impacts of migration, changes in settlement patterns, demographic ageing, changes in the nature of rural-urban interactions, a decreasing role of agriculture in terms of income and employment, and changes in governance systems. The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) is the main expenditure chapter of the EU and is directly affecting the economy of rural areas. Assessing the impact of the CAP will help in re-addressing the CAP in the wider framework of EU policy objectives. The objective of the project CAP-IRE is to develop concepts and tools to support future CAP design, based on an improved understanding of long term socio-economic mechanisms of change in rural areas. Concepts and tools will be developed, shaped by state of art literature and a wide empirical testing. Coverage includes case study regions in 9 countries of the EU. The focus will be farm households as the reference agents in the connection between policy and socio-economic change, as well as between agriculture and other sectors of the economy. Account of the wider non-EU and non-rural scenarios will be taken. The first step of the project will be to devise concepts and tools able to fill the gaps in present knowledge on development in rural areas. In the second step, these concepts and tools will be applied in an empirical analysis of mechanisms of change in selected case study areas. In a third step, tools will be used to assess the impact of CAP in the selected areas. Expected results concern: an improved conceptual view of CAP relationships in the context of changing rural areas and a framework to assess reciprocal impacts between CAP and other drivers of change in a long term perspective; models and tools to assess changes in rural areas

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'New commercial EUropean RICE (Oryza sativa) harbouring salt tolerance alleles to protect the rice sector against climate change and apple snail (Pomacea insularum) invasion'.

assistant: **Innovation**

About 2/3 of the rice consumed by European citizens is produced in EU, and its productivity is affected by abiotic and biotic stresses. Of particular concern, global temperature has increased over the last century, especially during the last 50 years (0.13° C / decade). One consequence has been a clear tendency toward salinization, which affects rice as one of the most salt sensitive crop in the region. Associated with changes in temperature and salinity, the biotic stress of the Apple snail species from genus Pomacea now threatens to destroy rice paddy fields eating the sown seed and the rice plantlets, representing one of the worst introduced gastropod crop pest of the recent time. It is calculated that nowadays this pest causes damages in rice fields worldwide that result into losses of tens of billions of Euros a year. Recently, apple snails have been detected in the Ebro river delta (Spain), and now it represents an important thread to Europe’s wetlands biodiversity and rice production. To date, the measures adopted to combat apple snail have failed, but in the autumn of 2013, 2500 ha of infested fields were flooded with sea water. This treatment proved 100% effective in destroying apple snail infestations, nevertheless residual salt concentrations affected negatively rice productivity.Thus, the general objective of the NEURICE project is to identify and introduce genetic variation in European rice varieties for obtaining commercial varieties tolerant to salinity in order to (i) mitigate the imminent effects of salinization and deterioration of water quality in the Mediterranean basins due to climate change, and (ii) to avoid the decline in production observed after seawater treatments performed in rice paddies that successfully controlled the apple snail pest.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'European Flexible hEat Shields: advanced TPS design and tests for future in-Orbit demonstration - 2' (EFESTO-2) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

EFESTO-2 is the natural follow-on of the project EFESTO (H2020 grant 821801) and it aims at increasing the European know-how and technology capabilities in the field of Inflatable Heat Shields (IHS). It will lean on the great achievements obtained in the frame of the father project EFESTO by implementing the needed forward advance to improve the current TRL for future re-entry missions.The project pillars will be:-to consolidate the use-case applicability through a deep business case analysis for a meaningful space application-to extend the investigation spectrum of the father project “EFESTO” to other critical aspects of the IHS field-to increase the confidence-level and robustness of tools/models and know-how developed in the frame of the father project “EFESTO”-to ensure continuity in presiding the IHS field in Europe among the scientific and industrial communityThe inflatable heat shields can be considered as a fundamental mean to both decelerate and protect the space system during re-entry, thus providing key contribution to the functions of re-entry and descent, therefore EFESTO-2 will satisfactorily fulfil the objectives of the HE call “HORIZON-CL4-2021-SPACE-01-23” contributing to the part of the scope strictly related with entry/descent systems and solutions.In particular EFESTO-2 will contribute to:-expansion of commercial space transportation offer and services because maturation of Inflatable Heat Shields will allow their applicability to recovery and reuse of launcher’s stages-execution of design and performance studies as well as business cases analysis with ad-hoc work packages-maturation of relevant technologies up to TRL 5-6 through a ground test campaign-matching the EU Green Deal objective because maturation of Inflatable Heat Shields technology can r

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Evolution equations for deterministic and stochastic systems' (1998-2002) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The network will establish links and collaborations between different partners of the teams at a moment when there is a special need at the European level to promote the training of young researchers in the research area covered by the project. Indeed, for the time being, each participant of the network has a great practice of several tools and/ or problems with which the other participants are less familiar. The lack of collaboration between the participants delays the development of these themes. The training of young specialists in these research areas will be organized via doctoral courses, workshops and seminars organized by the network. The young researchers will not only learn new techniques and problems but also start early fruitful collaborations with others mathematicians working in the same research area. The postdoctoral positions would allow to enlarge the scientific horizons of young researchers and stimulate them to start new challenging themes of research.

user: Describe how 'BARDiag - Biomarker tests for early cancer detection' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Colorectal cancer and lung cancer cause millions of death each year. Currently there is no suitable non-invasive method for the early detection of these types of cancer. The tumour suppressor gene BARD1 (BRCA1-associated RING domain protein) is aberrantly expressed in several types of cancer and could be a diagnostic target for early cancer diagnosis in blood samples. The overall objective of the project is to develop blood tests for the early detection of colorectal and lung cancer based on cancer-specific BARD1 isoforms. The outlined tests will analyse BARD1 isoforms at two levels: the expression of isoform-specific RNA in circulating tumour cells (CTC) and the presence of isoform-specific autoantibodies in serum. To reach these objectives, several technological challenges have to be overcome. The BARDiag consortium includes 3 SMEs and 4 research centres, who have excellent expertise, specific knowledge, the required lab infrastructure and necessary clinical materials that will enable to conduct this project. Within the frame of the project, innovative methods for the isolation of CTCs in colorectal and lung cancer patients will be developed, the specific signatures of the BARD1 isoforms at both mRNA and autoimmune levels will be defined, and assays for the detection of these isoforms will be established, validated with clinical samples and tested for their marketability. The results of the proposed project will have extensive impacts. Not only more scientific knowledge on the expression of BARD1 isoforms in colorectal and lung cancer will be obtained and therefore the understanding for cancer will be improved, but also non-invasive methods for the early detection of colorectal and lung cancer will be made broadly available in form of commercial test kits.  The SMEs w
