user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Solar louvre building integrated collector (SOLAR LOUVRE)' to be submitted under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The proposed research aims to investigate a novel integrated louver solar collector system intended for use in buildings, to provide solar shading, control over internal daylight levels and thermal energy. Solar thermal energy could be used to drive a wide range of building services systems e.g., space heating, water heating, solar-driven electricity generation and refrigeration. The collectors would utilise heat pipe technology, which in addition to offering high collector efficiency, will also provide flexibility to collect heat over a range of temperatures to suit the desired building services application. Louvers currently find wide uptake where they provide protection for glazed spaces within buildings during the cooling season. Applications include vertical glazed facades, atria roofs, conservatories etc. Solar louver collectors offer a cost-effective and aesthetically acceptable means for integrating renewable into buildings.

user: Explain how 'Process simulation of circulating fluidized beds with combustion/gasification of biomass' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Objectives of the project Circulating fluidized bed (CFB) is the latest generation of the reactors and is supposed to be the most promising technology for furnace capacity above 10 MW. The project addresses physical and chemical processes in CFB boiler/gasifier furnaces. The partners are from different fields of coal conversion, fluidization and bioenergy. The collaboration promotes a fast development of biomass thermoconversion technologies. There exist a number of serious technical challenges facing the increasing market for production of heat and especially power from biomass combustion/gasification. Alkali-ash deposition and emission, tar emission, fairly high NOx emission for future strict legislation, low quality (LHV and impurities) of product gas and high cost construction/operation/maintenance of biofuel plants due to size limitation are the most severe issues with respect to boilers/gasifiers. In order to solve these problems, a model-building consortium is formed to simulate the steady state behaviour of the furnaces of atmospheric CFB boilers/gasifiers. This consortium includes boiler manufacturer, Kvaerner, an European transnational corporation. The prospective simulation model is directed at medium scale biofuel plants larger than 10 MW. It is supposed to suit small scale units and to be easily extended to use in pressurized cases in the future. Both agriculture and forest biomass, such as pinup eucalyptus, salix, cork tree, maize, straw etc. are considered, which are typical biomasses in European countries. The common important issues described above will be treated. The simulation model is evaluated against tests on a 12MW commercial CFB Boiler at Chalmers and a 0. 1MW biomass pilot-scale CFB gasified and on larger full-scale unit of 40 or 50 MW of the i

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Magnetic fields and the outflows during the formation and evolution of stars' (OUTFLOWMAGN), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The outflows of young and old stars play a crucial role in the cycle of matter in galaxies.  Stars and planetary systems are formed through complex physical processes during the collapse of gas clouds with outflows a required ingredient. At the end of a stars life, stellar outflows are the main source of heavy elements that are essential for the formation of stars, planets and life. Magnetic fields are one of the key factors governing the in particular the often observed collimated outflow. They might also be a key ingredient in driving stellar mass loss and are potentially essential for stabilizing accretion disks of, in particular, massive proto-stars. Only polarization observations at different spatial scales are able to measure the strength and structure of magnetic fields during the launching of outflows from young and old stars. Because stars in these evolutionary phases are highly obscured by dusty envelopes, their magnetic fields are best probed through observations of molecules and dust at submillimeter and radio wavelengths. In addition to its role, the origin of the magnetic field in these stellar phases is also still unknown and to determine it multi-wavelength observations are essential. The proposed research group will use state of the art submillimeter and radio instruments, integrated with self-consistent radiative transfer and magneto-hydrodynamic models, to examine the role and origin of magnetic fields during star formation and in the outflows from evolved stars. The group will search for planets around evolved stars to answer the elusive question on the origin of their magnetic field and determine the connection between the galactic magnetic field and that responsible for the formation of jets and potentially disks around young proto-stars.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Time Resolved THz Calorimetry explores Molecular Recognition Processes' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Time-resolved THz-Calorimetry Explores Molecular Recognition ProcessesDefinition: “THz-calorimetry is the science of measuring low frequency density of states kinetics for the purpose of deriving the entropy changes associated with biological processes in real time.”Goal: Our scientific vision is to introduce time-resolved “THz-Calorimetry” to access the entropy changes of the protein and the solvent accompanying enzymatic reactions or more general molecular recognition processes, i.e. under non-equilibrium conditions with envisioned time resolutions of nanoseconds. Advances in THz technology will make it possible to develop strong, ultrafast THz sources in the frequency range up to 10W that allow the detection of frequency-resolved transient low frequency spectra of biological samples with μsec or even nsec time resolution. We will correlate the transient THz spectra with changes in the entropy and enthalpy, both experimentally and theoretically. Ultrafast THz-calorimetry is an innovative tool to access to the specific transient entropy changes of molecular recognition processes under non-equilibrium conditions.Objectives of the proposal:1.Monitor transient low frequency spectra (0-300cm-1) during molecular recognition processes.  2.Develop cutting edge experimental methods which allow the separation of protein and solvent modes under ambient conditions. Determine Delta S(protein(t)), Delta S(ligand(t)), Delta S(solvent(t)), thus specify the role of changes in the solvent entropy (hydrophobic effect) for biomolecular recognition. 3.Apply ultrafast THz-calorimetry: Explore the entropy changes of the enzyme, the ligand and the solvent for a family of MMP enzymes and substrates and correlate these results with biological function. Deduce underlying molecular mechanisms.4.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Methodology for European regional innovation policy assessment' (MERIPA), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The MERIPA project proposal takes an integrated approach to regional development by bringing together actors from different sectors (research institutions, public authorities, the business community) from across European regions. It seeks to boost innovati ve thinking and to assess the existing regional approaches for innovation in order to propose a common European innovation methodology based on the project studies in 5 different European regions. The overall objective of the RIPA project is to develop a c omprehensive and coherent methodology for assessing different regional policies on research and innovation, which can contribute to improving the regional understanding of effective innovation policy measures in a European context. In connection with this, a set of benchmarking indicators will be defined and a benchmarking tool developed in order to allow the trans-regional comparison of the impact of different strategies and policies on innovation performance. The aim is to improve the policy-making proces s by involving a critical mass of politicians, researchers, industry representatives and other promoters of regional innovation to ensure commitment and permanent integration of the project results into regional policy-making procedures. The project bases its regional commitment on a strong public-private partnership principle in pursuing successful innovation strategies. A key issue of the project objectives, and an expected force of the project, is to obtain new knowledge about the dependency of actors in regional settings. Analysing behavioural aspects can have a large impact on the successful outcome of innovation policies. The aspect of networking and actor-focused analysis is a challenge as it is often based on informal contacts and relation, and often it c

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Understanding the role of macrophages in the structural degeneration of bioprosthetic heart valve leaflets' (MACROVALVE) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Heart valve disease is predicted to be the next cardiac epidemic. Valve prostheses used to treat this disease are comprised of biological tissue. However, these bioprosthetic leaflets degrade, limiting their long-term efficacy. Macrophages have been found within explanted leaflets and are key determinants of biocompatible outcome. However, their role in bioprosthetic leaflet remodelling is poorly understood. Males and females for unknown reasons are also predisposed to calcific and fibrotic leaflet degeneration, respectively. MACROVALVEs goal is to elucidate the contribution of macrophages to the fibro-calcific remodelling of bioprosthetic leaflets. First, the applicant will apply histological, multi-omics and network analyses to constitute an integrated multi-omics map of human bioprosthetic leaflet degeneration. The differential pathogenesis between male and female disease will be determined. The results will also be compared against data for native aortic valve disease at different stages: early-disease, fibrotic and calcified. Electron microscopy will be used to identify extracellular vesicles. Secondly, the discrete response of sex-separated macrophages in the presence of hormonal milieu and physiological stimulation will be investigated. Ultimately, the innovative application of these techniques to unravel the innate immune response to bioprosthetic replacements will pave the way for novel therapeutics to prolong leaflet lifespan. The project is in line with the Horizon 2020 focus area Health, Demographic Change and Wellbeing. The candidate will spend the first two years of this fellowship training in multi-omics and network analyses at Brigham and Womens Hospital in the United States. She will transfer these skills to Ireland during the return phase and increase

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Structural and functional characterization of the ICOS/ICOSL immune complex' (SI).

assistant: **Concept**

T and B lymphocytes are effectors of adaptive immunity. Their dysregulation have dramatic health consequences, and can lead to autoimmunity and blood cancers. Recently, immune receptors involved in dictating the fate of B and T cells have expanded drastically. Once of these critical receptor/ligand immune pair is the inducible co-stimulator (ICOS) and its ligand ICOSL, which emerged as a novel T/B-cell co-signaling pathway. The multiple roles reported for this immune complex position ICOS/ICOSL at the center of attention for immunotherapy. Accordingly, several therapeutic antibodies targeting this immune complex are under clinical investigation. However, structure-function studies of ICOS/ICOSL interaction are critically lacking. This proposal aims to use integrative structural biology to provide molecular details into the function and targeting of the ICOS/ICOSL immune complex. These structural blueprints will contribute to the design of next-generation therapies against autoimmune diseases and cancer. This knowledge, will also serve as the basis to develop agonist antibodies that could act as adjuvants of B cell maturation for vaccine purposes. Therefore, this study will aim to apply fundamental mechanistic approaches to answer biomedical research questions and the outcome will result in advances to both molecular medicine and biology of disease.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Photo-patternable electrolytes for solid-state organic electrochemical neurons' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Future advanced brain-computer interfaces, wearable and implantable bioelectronic devices, prosthetics, and intelligent soft robotics will require the ability to process signals in a highly personalized and localized manner, which will involve fully integrated electronic circuits within the nervous system and other living tissues. To achieve this goal, it is imperative to develop energy-efficient intelligent electronics that have minimal device/circuit complexity and ion-based transducing and operating mechanisms akin to those observed in biology. The use of Silicon-based devices and circuits presents several limitations. Organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) represent a rapidly advancing technology that plays a pivotal role in the development of next-generation bioelectronic devices. However, a notable limitation of OECTs is their typical operation in aqueous electrolytes, which can lead to undesired crosstalk between different devices on the same substrate, impeding their seamless integration into large-area arrays. Therefore, it is hard to develop neural networks based on the current OECTs. Solid electrolytes offer a promising solution to these challenges. In this proposal, I design a photo-patternable solid electrolyte to develop solid-state OECTs. The aim is to directly pattern the electrolyte using sequential ultraviolet light-triggered solubility modulation. We plan to use UV-sensitive PEGDA to directly pattern the hydrogel without requiring photoresist or lift-off processes. The PEGDA network will be covalently crosslinked after UV exposure to form a hydrogel network. The strong intermolecular interaction between the two networks will allow the UV-exposed regions to resist subsequent water development, while the UV-unexposed regions will remain water-solub

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Multi-use affordable standardised floating Space@Sea' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The Space@Sea project aims to develop multi-use platforms with the objective to develop safe and cost efficient deck space at sea. Due to the increasing population and scarce usable space on land, there is an increasing need for sustainable food and renewable energy from the ocean. In the future these will be supplied more and more by fish- and seaweed farms and ocean energy(floating) wind turbines. There are also geographical locations where additional housing or logistic hubs are needed. All these developments need a flexible and scalable concept that can support a multitude of activities at sea.Space@Sea consists of a group of companies, research institutes and universities that will develop a modular concept for multi-use platforms. Standardised floaters that can be produced at low cost will form the basis. The approach will reduce the cost through standardisation in a similar way that containers reduced the cost of transport in the past.Each floater can support a different function, such as: housing, renewable energy hub, aquafarming (seaweed, algae and fish farms) and logistics equipment. By combining the applications in different ways, Space@Sea will form islands according to the specifications for the location and function at hand. Three specific islands will be validated and demonstrated as part of Space@Sea: An energy hub in the North Sea, aquaculture in the Mediterranean and a floating logistics hub in the Black Sea.To develop a safe and economically viable floating island, a floater need to be developed that can meet the requirements of the various applications and environmental conditions. At the same time these requirements will be brought together into a standardized design. Technology developments are required for the floater, the shared mooring system,

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Innovative biotechnology using mycorrhizal fungi to restore and remediate damaged soils'.

assistant: **Objectives**

MYRES provides the soil remediation industry with a biotechnology that has been largely tested in laboratory. Our company INOQ is ready to apply its expertise on mycorrhizal fungi to provide an innovative bioremediation technology to treat contaminated and degraded soils in Europe (and worldwide in subsequent phases). Mycorrhiza is the symbiotic association between fungi and roots of vascular plants. It increases the plant’s ability to resist diseases and is able to detoxify pollutants. We will identify and select the most accurate mycorrhizal fungi species to restore soil properties, as well as treat organic and inorganic contaminants. MYRES offers a complement and/or alternative to current remediation Ex situ and In situ techniques. Its characteristics includes: 100% natural, non-GMO, compatible with other techniques (accelerates phytoremediation), applicable for both residential and agricultural purposes, cost-effective method.  To date there are no commercial applications of mycorrhizal fungi on soil remediation in Europe. Therefore, we identify our competitive advantage given our technical and commercial experience with similar applications. Our know-how and infrastructure include a culture collection and stock of more than 50 strains, hosting plant species, laboratories, nursing areas and green houses. Our technology is ranged between TRL 6 and TRL 7.  Our aim is to be leader provider of Mycorrhiza based bioremediation technology. Our target leads are segmented in 3 groups: Soil remediation firms; Contractor firms managing remediation or land reclamation projects; and Firms with remediation activities as part of their operations (i.e. construction and Mining). European Union’s estimations include 490,000 contaminated sites with an average remediation cost of €180.
