user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Vectors of Change in Oceans and Seas Marine Life, Impact on Economic Sectors' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Marine life makes a substantial contribution to the economy and society of Europe. VECTORS will elucidate the drivers, pressures and vectors that cause change in marine life, the mechanisms by which they do so, the impacts that they have on ecosystem structures and functioning, and on the economics of associated marine sectors and society. VECTORS will particularly focus on causes and consequences of invasive alien species, outbreak forming species, and changes in fish distribution and productivity. New and existing knowledge and insight will be synthesised and integrated to project changes in marine life, ecosystems and economies under future scenarios for adaptation and mitigation in the light of new technologies, fishing strategies and policy needs. VECTORS will evaluate current forms and mechanisms of marine governance in relation to the vectors of change.  Based on its findings, VECTORS will provide solutions and tools for relevant stakeholders and policymakers, to be available for use during the lifetime of the project.The project will address a complex array of interests comprising areas of concern for marine life, biodiversity, sectoral interests, regional seas, and academic disciplines as well as the interests of stakeholders. VECTORS will ensure that the links and interactions between all these areas of interest are explored, explained, modelled and communicated effectively to the relevant stakeholders.  The VECTORS consortium is extremely experienced and genuinely multidisciplinary.  It includes a mixture of natural scientists with knowledge of socio-economic aspects, and social scientists (environmental economists, policy and governance analysts and environmental law specialists) with interests in natural system functioning. VECTORS is therefore fully equipp

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Secure Function Evaluation – from Theory to Tools' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Modern cryptography is known for the introduction of public key cryptography, which has been widely applied in practice. However, the theory of cryptography provided additional powerful (and less intuitive) tools. One of its most attractive contributions is secure computation, also known as secure function evaluation - SFE, which allows multiple participants to implement a joint computation that, in real life, may only be implemented using a trusted party. The participants, each with its own private input, communicate without the help of any trusted party, and can compute any function without revealing any information about the inputs except for the value of the function. A classic example of such a computation is the “millionaires’ problem”, in which two millionaires want to find out who is richer, without revealing their actual worth. Thus far, secure computation techniques have rarely been applied in practice, and are typically considered to have mostly theoretical significance. In this research proposal we intend to build tools that translate these theoretical results into practical applications. Our goal is that secure computation solutions, which today are usually stated as mathematical theorems, will be available as tools usable by non-experts, similar to state-of-the-art tools for technologies such as public key encryption, linear programming, or data compression. The research will proceed in two directions: First, we will develop generic tools (essentially compilers) which translate functions defined using a high-level language to distributed programs that implement secure evaluation of the defined functions. We also expect that this effort will unearth many questions of theoretical interest, which we will investigate. Our other direction of research is the des

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'High-throughput identification of novel phage-encoded bacterial defense mechanisms against protozoan predation' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Bacteria are the backbone of natural communities. A single gram of soil may contain up to 10 billion cells. Two types of bacterial predators are also abundant: protozoa, single-celled eukaryotes that phagocytize bacteria, and bacteriophages (phages), viruses that only infect bacteria. Each day, up to 20% of the global bacterial population is killed by these two predators. This puts pressure on bacteria to adapt defense strategies, but also on each predator to out-compete the other. However, the interplay between bacteria, phages, and protozoa is rarely studied.Certain phages can integrate into bacterial genomes, becoming prophages, and encode beneficial traits for host fitness, like protection from other phages. My hypothesis is that prophages encode defense mechanisms that may interfere with protozoan predation and protect the bacterial host, thereby indirectly benefiting the prophage.  To investigate this, I will develop a high-throughput quantitative fluorescence predation assay, using the amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum as the model protozoan. Changes in abundance of fluorescently tagged bacteria with and without defense functions will report the strength of predation defense in a large bacterial isolate panel harbouring thousands of prophages. The assay will be scaled up with robotics platforms. Gain of function screens will be used to link defense phenotype with individual genes. After prioritizing the defense hits for novel biology, the major stages of predation that are inhibited can be observed by real time tracking of interactions between fluorescently tagged cells. Biochemical and genetic follow-ups will pinpoint the exact mechanisms of defense. Proteomic, transcriptomic, and lipidomic methods will assess changes in bacterial and protozoan physiology. Overall

user: Draft an impact statement for 'ACcurate Reconstruction In PET: Fully 3D PET reconstruction with compressed scatter system matrix', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

In the fight against cancer, Positron Emission  Tomography (PET) can provide 3D images of metabolic processes (i.e. of cells in action) in the body and contributes to diagnosis and treatment. Two-dimensional PET scanners (2D PET) have been replaced by three-dimensional PET machines combined with a CT (3D PET/CT). This led to complementary anatomical information (from the CT) and increased sensitivity (less noise in the images). However, the increased sensitivity comes along with an increased detection of scattered radiations that impair accurate quantitative measurements necessary for diagnosis and follow-up. PET images are usually reconstructed iteratively from the signal detected by the scanner using a system matrix that models the imaging process. In clinical 3D PET/CT, this huge system matrix (order of Terabytes) is highly simplified to make the problem tractable. Based on previous proof-of-principle studies in 2D PET by the applicant, the ACRIPET project proposes to develop a novel and accurate 3D reconstruction method based on an accurate (unlike approximate) system matrix obtained through Monte Carlo modelling of all patient and detector related effects interfering with the imaging process. The method uses compression schemes to reduce Monte Carlo noise and allow storage of the system matrix. These compression schemes will be extended to 3D PET and parallelized on multi node computer architecture to make accurate 3D PET reconstruction clinically feasible. By using the most modern computer resources to fully exploit the potential of 3D PET/CT scanners, PET image accuracy should be significantly increased, contributing to earlier detection and more precise characterization of the disease and of its evolution.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Design and synthesis of self-healing polymer systems'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The aim of this research is to develop self-healing polymer systems that will be expected to mimic many of the features of a biological system. In nature, damage to an organism elicits a healing response. We are applying the same concept to synthetic material design, creating a self-healing polymer system.The self-healing system proposed here is based on incorporating microencapsulated mixtures of mono- and di-functional norbornene monomers (healing agent) and Grubbs ruthenium initiators (catalyst) within the epoxy resin (polymer matrix). When a crack is formed in the polymer matrix the embedded microcapsules are ruptured releasing healing agent into the crack plane.Polymerisation of the healing agent is then triggered by contact with the embedded catalyst, bonding the crack faces and self-healing process is accomplished. Urea-formaldehyde microcapsules containing healing agents will be prepared in situ polymerisation in an oil-in-water emulsion. The polymerisation reactions will be based on ring opening metathesis polymerisation (ROMP) process involving rapid polymerisation of mixtures of mono- and di-functional norbornene monomers in the presence of Grubbs ruthenium initiators at room temperature to form crosslinked and very tough polymers.The self-healing process will be studied by Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy (ESEM) and Infrared spectroscopy (IR). The healing efficiency will be investigated using fracture toughness tests. The concept of self-healing process will have far-reaching consequences for improving product safety and reliability. One of the major applications of the self-healing process is anticipated to be in medicine.Once implanted in the body, prosthetics and other medical devices are difficult to monitor and access for re pair.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Specification of Arterial Venous Identity in Embryonic Stem Cells'.

assistant: **Innovation**

During embryonic development, formation of a functional cardiovascular system is critical for survival. When genes essential for cardiovascular development are ablated, embryos die by mid-gestation. Interestingly, this includes ablation of genes for arterial-venous (AV) differentiation indicating that arteries and veins are specified very early in development and that this specification is essential for proper cardiovascular function. AV identity was originally believed to be a trait acquired through local environmental cues. Recent evidence, however, has put this belief into question since arterial markers are expressed by endothelial cells before the onset of erythroblast circulation.Though the initial AV identity of endothelial cells may be genetically pre-determined, this identity remains plastic during development such that it can be reversed by altering local flow dynamics. Thus, specification of arterial-venous fate involves a complex interaction between signalling molecules and blood flow dynamics. In order to understand the role of these various inputs, we suggest combining the use of embryonic stem (ES) cell culture with micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) to allow us to expose small populations of ES cells to control environmental and chemical cues. Using the MEMS technology, flow and pressure can be controlled in channels equivalent to the size of embryonic vasculature, between 50-100µm.This technology has previously been used to understand the reaction of individual endothelial cells to environmental cues, however has never been applied to ES cells in order to understand the role of mechanical forces in endothelial cell differentiation. This research will thereby investigate which signals, both mechanical and genetic, are necessary for proper AV differe

user: Describe how 'Next Generation Earth Modelling Systems' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

NextGEMS will develop and apply a new generation of global coupled Storm-Resolving Earth System Models (SR-ESMs) to the study of anthropogenic climate change. SR-ESMs are distinguished by their fine, 3 km, grid in the atmosphere and ocean.  This allows a more physical representation of atmospheric and oceanic circulation systems, including their coupling to Earth-system processes such as the carbon, nutrients, water and atmospheric particulate (aerosol) cycles.  NextGEMS will develop two prototypes SR-ESMs into production systems and produce multi-decadal (30 y) projections of future climate change. Improved resolution is expected to reduce biases and enhance the realism of these simulations.  Ensembles of simulations will address scientific puzzles such as the impact of convective organization on climate sensitivity, the magnitude of aerosol forcing, and the changes in extremes associated with tropical air-sea interaction (including the African Monsoon and Atlantic Hurricanes) and land-surface interaction in the mid-latitudes (dry-spells and links between hydrology and carbon). By developing models that are structurally different than existing ones, NextGEMS will reshape perceptions of uncertainty and provide a basis for reassessing the risk global warming poses for society and ecology.  By focusing on just two models, NextGEMS builds a European community of scientists and users around a technologically more ambitious modelling enterprise.  This concentration is needed if Europe is to maintain its position at the forefront of Earth-system modelling. By representing the scales of motion and driving forces of high impact weather globally, NextGEMS links more directly to applications, thereby shortening the value chain.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Energy- and Size-efficient Ultra-fast Plasmonic Circuits for Neuromorphic Computing Architectures'.

assistant: **Concept**

PlasmoniAC invests in neuromorphic computing towards sustaining processing power and energy efficiency scaling, adopting the best-in-class material and technology platforms for optimizing computational power, size and energy at every of its constituent functions. It employs the proven high-bandwidth and low-loss credentials of photonic interconnects together with the nm-size memory function of memristor nanoelectronics, bridging them by introducing plasmonics as the ideal technology for offering photonic-level bandwidths and electronic-level footprint computations within ultra-low energy consumption envelopes. Following a holistic hardware/software co-design approach, PlasmoniAC targets the following objectives: i) to elevate plasmonics into a computationally-credible platform with Nx100Gb/s bandwidth, um2-scale size and >1014 MAC/s/W computational energy efficiency, using CMOS compatible BTO and SiOC materials for electro- and thermo-optic computational functions,  ii) to blend them via a powerful 3D co-integration platform with SixNy-based photonic interconnects and with non-volatile memristor-based weight control, iii) to fabricate two different sets of 100Gb/s 16- and 8-fan-in linear plasmonic neurons, iv) to deploy a whole new class of  plasmo-electronic and nanophotonic activation modules, v) to demonstrate a full-set of sin2(x), ReLU, sigmoid and tanh plasmonic neurons for feed-forward and recurrent neurons, v) to embrace them into a properly adapted Deep Learning training model suite, ultimately delivering a neuromorphic plasmonic software design library, and vi) to apply them on IT security-oriented applications for threat and malware detection. Succeeding in its targets will release a powerful artificial plasmonic neuron suite with up to 3 orders of magnitude

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Environmental cycling of selected persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the Baltic region.', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Objectives: The goal of the POPCYCLING-BALTIC" project is to develop and use a multicompartmental, non steady-state model to study the fate and behaviour of POPs in the Baltic environment. Other objectives of the project are to: - review information on present and historical emissions and fluxes of POPs to air, soil and water in the Baltic region and assess the emission input from surrounding regions, - complete and update existing data base of POP levels in the countries around the Baltic Sea and use these data for verification of model results, and - prepare a set of recommendations with respect to the exposure and risk assessment for POPs in the Baltic Sea region.During the last decade several studies have been carried out aiming at the improvement of our knowledge on the behaviour of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) in the environment. Evidence has been found that many of these compounds create serious problems due to their toxicity, persistence, and bioaccumulation in various environmental compartments. The Baltic Sea region is of particular interest due to the high degree of environmental and human risk related to the POP exposure. Thus, it is envisaged to: - examine physical, chemical, and biological processes resulting in the migration of POPs through the individual environmental compartments, - describe meteorological, chemical, physical, and biological parameters affecting the mobility of POPs in the environment, - assess the relative importance and absolute magnitude of various chemical inputs to the Baltic Sea, - describe and possibly explain observed spatial patterns and temporal trends in the fluxes, concentrations, and relative compositions of various POPs within the Baltic Sea environment, - evaluate the relative importance of degradation, sediment b

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Globalization of domestic work: the case of Moldovan migrant women in Turkey' (MOLMIGRANT).

assistant: **Innovation**

The general framework of this project is gender dimension of migration. It is designed to investigate the new trends of globalization of domestic work in the Turkish context by focusing on Moldovan women migrants. The aims of the project are to understand and analyse the impact of the recent migration movements on Turkey through the Moldovan case.Turkey as a traditionally migrant sending country has become a migration receiving country in the recent years and started to receive migrants -mostly irregular migrants- from the Eastern Europe. One of the important aspects of this new movement is related to gender. Women have comprised a significant proportion of migrants.This project will focus on women migrants from Moldova. In the last decade, women migrants from Moldova joined the migration movements mainly due to the extensive informal labour market structure in the Turkish economy, geographical proximity and liberal visa regulations.Ethnicity also plays its role in choosing Turkey as a destination country; most of the Moldovan women migrants are Gagauz Turks who are Christian Turks and speak Turkish. They are recruited mainly in domestic services. In this context, Moldovan female migrants present an example of the globalization of domestic work.Therefore, in this research, the case of Moldovan domestic workers in Turkey will be analyzed and the gender dimension and dynamics of migration movements directed to Turkey from the ex-socialist countries will be discussed through the findings of an extensive proposed field work.The proposed contribution of this project is a comprehensive analysis of the commonalities and peculiarities of the Moldovan case in Turkey in the wider context of globalization of domestic works.
