user: Describe how 'Middle-Infrared Optical Spectroscopy for Anaesthetic Agent and Carbon Isotope Analysis' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The proposed cross-disciplinary project takes ultra-sensitive optical cavity ring-down spectroscopy (CRDS) beyond the state of the art by allowing practical CRDS instruments in the mid-IR spectral range where many analytically interesting gas molecules have strongest absorption. Such a step change in CRDS technology is enabled by the recent advances of the quantum cascade lasers. The cutting edge sensor technology will be used to address two topical and high impact cross-disciplinary measurement challenges. The first challenge is in the field of medical exhaled breath analytics and the second one in the measurement of carbon isotope 14-C/12-C ratio.Every year over 100 million people undergo surgery, mostly performed under general anaesthesia.The majority of operations are performed using inhaled anaesthetic agents. However, more and more patients are anaesthetised using intravenously administered drugs, such as propofol, because there is growing evidence that intravenously administered drugs have several advantages over inhaled ones: shorter recovery times and less frequent adverse side effects. Compatibility with other drugs is also better, which is crucial for balanced anaesthesia. The increasing clinical use of intravenous anaesthetics is accompanied by the alarming fact that no viable instruments exist for monitoring their blood plasma concentration.The second application, analysis of carbon 14-C/12-C isotope ratio from CO2 samples, responds to the emerging need to monitor the fossil to modern carbon ratio and to detect leakages in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) systems. The EU Emissions Trading Scheme, together with the proposed CCS Directive, are expected to keep the EU on track to meet its target to cut greenhouse gas emissions in Europe by 20% by 2020 compared

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Motion planning technology for autonomous driving', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Today, more than 90% of road accidents are attributed to human errors. To cope with this, smart technologies are being developed to enable autonomous driving, with the goal of making road traffic safer. With the advent of autonomous driving, less than ten years from now, new business models will appear enabled by autonomous shuttles, robo-taxis, last-mile autonomous delivery vehicles, connected truck platoons and private self-driving cars. One of the major challenges the autonomous car industry faces is the development of embeddable software that, using information from the vehicle sensors, is capable to real-time plan the vehicle motion. Motion planning is the part of the autonomous vehicle operating system responsible for defining the path to follow, avoiding obstacles and ensuring safety, comfort and efficiency. Embotech is a leading supplier of decision-making software developing cutting-edge motion planning technology for autonomous cars. Since 2017 we are working with principal carmakers and Tier 1 suppliers of the automotive industry in proof of concepts of our revolutionary software EMP (Embotech Motion Planner). Using a deterministic approach and physics-based models, EMP generates high-dimensional motion trajectories that enable various self-driving tasks such as valet parking, highway driving pilot and urban driving pilot. EMP provides fully flexible, safe and certifiable motion planning, capable to perform complex manoeuvres real-time on standard automotive grade ECUs. As a SME highly specialized in decision-making technology, our plan is to bring a solution already proven in aerospace and industrial applications, to jointly test it in Level 4 autonomous cars with the support of several automotive industry players.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Coherent matter-wave interferometry' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

After working for four years on quantum-optics at the Ècole Normale Supèrieur in Paris and at 'La Sapienza' in Rome, I led together with Prof Walraven a team of researchers on Bose-Einstein condensation in Amsterdam. At FORTH-IESL on Crete, I would like to combine these two fields by realising the first guided matter-wave interferometer.The laboratory has a strong background in experimental laser-matter interaction and theoretical quantum-optics. The institute has recently decided to expand into experiment al quantum-optics and cold-atom physics, and is providing me with adequate means to realise this project. An excellence grant would help to establish the first experimental quantum-optics group in Greece.After obtaining the first Bose-Einstein condensate in Greece, the aim of this proposal is to demonstrate the first fully functional prototype of a guided matter-wave interferometer. Bose-Einstein condensates will be split and recombined using Bragg pulses, in between which they will travel in opposite directions in a novel matter-waveguide. The resulting motional state of the atoms will then be a function of the relative phase difference accumulated by the two parts of the condensate.This can be exploited to measure extremely small accelerations and rotations, well beyond today's possibilities, making the matter-waveguide interferometer a candidate for fundamental measurements such as the Newton's gravitational constant or relativistic frame dragging (Lense-Thirring effect). For the realisation of the interferometer, we will develop a new type of matter-waveguide and a novel ion-optical imaging system.Ultimately, the interferometer can be fitted onto a single microchip and combined with micro-electric devices -- thus opening it up to real-life applications.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Bio-based copolymers for membrane end products for gas separations' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main objective of the BIOCOMEM is to develop and validate gas separation membranes at TRL 5 using bio- based polyether-block-amide copolymers (PEBAs) specially designed to give: higher processability into monolithic hollow fiber membrane; higher gas separation performance, higher resistance to chemical attack (aging), higher bio- based content.The project started with a bio-based PEBA copolymer (A, Reference bio-PEBA) that is already avaible from Arkema at TRL8 and shows (at TRL3 - dense flat sheet membrane) better gas permeation properties than the fossil fuel counterparts (PEBAX® MV 1074 and PEBAX® MH1657). Several synthesis pathways were followed to further improve the properties and gain the necessary added value for market competitiveness. The modification of the chemical structure was done systematically with the purpose to fully understand the relation between the chemical structure, morphology and properties. In one research line (B, New bio-PEBAs Pathway 1) the polyether block was be kept constant, the same as for the reference bio-PEBA, and only the polyamide block was modified using bio- based monomers with aromatic/cycloaliphatic structure. The main objective of the first research line was to induce spinnability by making polymers with better solubility keeping at least similar mechanical properties compared to the reference polymer. In a parallel research line (C, New bio-PEBAs Pathway 2), the polyamide part was kept constant as for the reference bio-PEBA (i.e. poly(11-undecanoic acid)), and the chemical structure of the polyether block was modified using monomers derived from lignin as a starting point to connect hydrophilic chains. The objective of the second research line is to produce a polyamide-polyether block copolymer with bio-based components i

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Nanoextraction, separation and detection of micropollutants in one single and simple step'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Sample preparation is considered to be the most difficult step in analytic workflow. Current methods for extraction andseparation of minute substances in liquid samples are laborious, time-consuming, often involve large amounts of toxicorganic solvents, and are often difficult to automatize, implying high costs of man-power. An innovative sample preparationtechnique which has the potential to overcome these shortcomings will be developed in this project. Based on the firstpromising results in the ERC-AdG project DDD, we propose a surface nanodroplet-based sensing approach for liquid-liquidextraction and online analysis of traces of analytes in aqueous solutions, including in biomedical, health, pharmaceutical andenvironmental contexts. The basis of our approach, referred to as nanoextraction, will be surface nanodroplets pre-formedon a substrate within a microflow channel. The principle of the nanoextraction is that the partition coefficient of the compoundin the droplets is much higher than in the sample solution. The compound in the flow will thus be extracted to thenanodroplets that are immobilized on the channel walls. The concentration of the compound in the droplets will be quantifiedby surface-sensitive spectroscopic techniques. Our proposed approach can potentially achieve extraction-separation-detectionof analytes at extremely low concentrations in one single and simple step. The ability to achieve extraction-separation-detection of micropollutants in one single step is creating new and unique market opportunities which we want toexplore. First, the technology can improve the state-of-the-art solutions in current markets, because of the easy usage andthe small scale, thus saving time and costs. Second, we foresee new markets for the method, due to the higher se

user: Describe how 'Lifesaving Innovation of Flow-Enhanced Membranes with Endothelium-Mimicking Coatings for Uterine-Like Artificial Placenta' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

LifeLink will devise a totally new concept for an interactive artificial placenta (AP) that can provide safer and more efficient oxygenation to pre-term babies giving them the chance to bridge until the point they can breathe on their own. Pre-term birth is the leading cause of death in children under five, with over 1 million deaths annually due to complications. To address this, pre-term infants require continuous oxygenation as they would receive in the womb, yet no extracorporeal oxygenator currently exists for this purpose. LifeLink aims to fill this gap by developing an innovative AP platform that overcomes two key challenges: hemocompatibility and the excessive cardiac stress caused by high flow resistance. The project pioneers a bioinspired, endothelium-mimetic coating that integrates the three key endothelial functions—stealth, modulation, and interaction—into a single hemocompatible layer. This design reduces the need for anticoagulants and minimizes thrombogenicity. The coating, featuring antifouling brushes, FXIIa inhibitors, and tPA (tissue plasminogen activator), mimics the natural endothelium’s ability to prevent clot formation, regulate coagulation, and promote fibrinolysis, making it ideal for blood-contacting devices like oxygenators. LifeLink will enhance gas exchange and flow dynamics using triply periodic minimal surface (TPMS) designs, such as gyroid structures, to lower cardiac stress and eliminate the need for external pumps. These 3D membranes will be fabricated via centrifugal casting and tested for gas transport, hemocompatibility, and clot-dissolving capabilities, with polymer brush coatings to boost performance. This interdisciplinary approach, structured across three work packages—developing endothelium-mimetic coatings, designing TPMS-base

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'A 24/7 platform providing access to services for isolated communities and reduced mobility residents' (TownHall24).

assistant: **Innovation**

Over the past decades, new residential areas have emerged further and further away from urban centers. This trend can be observed in all urban areas around Europe. Although this has some advantages (larger, greener and cheaper living areas) there are also carry important inconveniencies. The lack of efficient and easy transportation and logistics implies that consumers cannot access or afford their preferred services without using the car. The total annual value of car usage by consumers to access stores and services in Finland alone is estimated at €3.5 Billion. Extrapolated to the EU, this amounts over €300 Billion. Moreover, 25% of the population does not have proper access to these commercial areas because of reduced mobility (elderly, young people, families without a second car). To solve these problems, while taking advantage of a newly to be developed market segment, we have funded Community Constructor to develop  TownHall24. Community Constructor is a spin-off of Coreorient, the company behind the sustainable crowdsourced delivery service PiggyBaggy. TownHall24 is a physical shared space within walking distance, self-powered, sustainable, easy-to-be-installed and internet-connected. Members of the local community can use it for services such as deliveries, rentals, second hand sales, recycling, public services or access to locally relevant information. After some pilot trials in Finland 50-80% of the participants wanted to keep using TownHall24 and 85% wanted the piloted services to continue operating. The successful implementation of TownHall24 will create flourishing local markets in which more people can participate, while simultaneously reducing car using. TownHall24 will greatly improve access to services in local communities in a sustainable way, while al

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Sharply o-minimal Structures: towards a theory of arithmetically tame geometry', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

O-minimality is a model-theoretic formalism of tame geometry. Sets that are definable in o-minimal structures enjoy strong finiteness properties, such as the existence of finite stratifications and triangulations. While drawing inspiration from the classical areas of semialgebraic and subanalytic geometry, o-minimality encompasses a strictly larger range of structures - most notably structures defined using the logarithmic and exponential functions. In the past 15 years o-minimality has enjoyed a golden age, as deep connections relating these larger structures to arithmetic geometry and Hodge theory have been unfolding. However, over this period it has become clear that some finer aspects of tameness, especially as it relates to arithmetic, are not accessible in the full generality of o-minimal theory. Some prominent conjectures have been formulated only for specific structures, with a folklore expectation that they should hold in all structures naturally arising in algebraic and arithmetic geometry.In this project we propose to refine the foundation of o-minimal geometry by introducing a notion of ""sharply o-minimal structures'', with the goal of capturing the finer arithmetic properties of the definable sets arising in algebraic and arithmetic geometry. We argue that this should be achieved by postulating sharper estimates for the asymptotic interaction between definable and algebraic sets. The construction of such ""sharp"" structures has until recently seemed technically unattainable, but three recent technical developments, including the first example of a sharply o-minimal structure beyond the semialgebraic case, renders the project timely and potentially feasible. We show how many recent advances in the area point to sharp o-minimality as a possible grand unifyi

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'An investigation of the middle atmosphere response to impulsive ozone perturbations' (ARIA) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

We propose to investigate the impact of impulsive ozone perturbations on the middle atmosphere. Impulsive perturbation experiments of increasing complexity will be performed on a stratosphere-mesosphere model and the radiative and dynamical response systematically investigated under a range of conditions. Satellite observations of transient ozone changes retrieved with a new 2-dimensional algorithm will be compared to reanalysis data and model results. The comparison will help identifying sources of atmospheric variability and estimating the characteristics of extreme responses, aiding current global circulation models and our understanding of observed climate change. The project aims at developing a common strategy for analysing and interpreting model results, reanalysis data and short term satellite observations, identifying meaningful diagnostics to be used in dynamically controlled regions of the atmosphere where large non-linear responses can arise. An interdisciplinary approach is needed and it is possible coupling the expertise of the candidate on model perturbation experiments and transient phenomena developed during the previous EU Research Training Network, with the state-of-the-art MIPAS/ENVISAT retrieval capabilities and chemistry knowledge of the host institute. The continuation and extension of close collaborations developed with other members of the previous network will guarantee a continuous interaction with experts of middle atmospheric modelling, stratosphere-troposphere coupling, ion-chemistry modelling and transient luminous events.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Size Matters: investigating the link between affective and perceptual body representations using multisensory illusions and brain imaging' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The perceptual flexibility of the human body representation has been well documented, demonstrating that changes to our body can be quickly adapted to by the brain. However, how this affects our emotional feeling towards our body is yet to be explored. Negative feelings towards our body can have catastrophic consequences for our mental and physical health being associated with disordered eating behaviour such as anorexia and bulimia nervosa. The proposed research aims to investigate affective consequences of perceptual bodily illusions, creating illusions of thinner and fatter body shapes, whilst measuring changes in body satisfaction. Such changes will also be examined in relation to visual perspective of the body. Recent evidence has suggested that viewing the body from a first person perspective (how we normally view ourselves) and a third person perspective (how we normally view other people) involve independent neural networks. In a series of behavioural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) experiments, we aim to reveal a direct causal link between the perceptual body image, expected to be constructed by active multisensory areas in the posterior parietal and premotor cortices, and the affective body image, hypothesised to be supported by activation in insular cortex and the anterior cingulate cortex. Crucially, this interplay between the perceived body and the emotionally felt body is predicted to depend on the visual perspective, so that changes in perceived body size cause much greater modulation of body satisfaction when the body is viewed from the first person compared to the third person perspective. Understanding how perception of the body relates to the emotional experience of the body, and how this is modulated by visual perspective, can have f
