user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Georgian Artificial Intelligence Networking and Twinning Initiative'.

assistant: **Objectives**

GAIN will take a strategic step towards integrating Georgia, one of the Widening countries, into the system of European efforts aimed at ensuring the Europe’s leadership in one of the most transformative technologies of today and tomorrow – Artificial Intelligence (AI). It will be achieved by research profile adjusting and linking the central Georgian ICT research institute - Muskhelishvili Institute of Computational Mathematics (MICM), to the European AI research and innovation community. Two absolutely leading European research organizations (DFKI and INRIA) supported by the high-tech company EXOLAUNCH will support MICM in this endeavour. The Strategic Research and Innovation Programme (SRIP) designed by the partnership will provide the environment for the Georgian colleagues to get involved in the research projects of the European partners addressing a clearly delineated set of AI topics. Jointly, the partners will advance in capacity building and networking within the area of AI Methods and Tools for Human Activities Recognition and Evaluation, which also will contribute to strengthening core competences in such fundamental technologies as e.g. Machine (Deep) Learning. The results of the cooperation presented through the series of scientific publications and events will inform the European AI community about the potential of MICM and trigger new partnerships building, addressing e.g. Horizon Europe. The project will contribute to career development of a cohort of young researchers at MICM through joint supervision and targeted capacity building measures. Innovation and Research Administration and Management capacities of MICM will also be strengthen to allow the Institute to be better connected to the local, regional and European innovation activities.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Controlling Oxygen Selectivity at the Atomic Scale' (COSAS).

assistant: **Concept**

Developing new materials with optimized catalytic properties is a crucial challenge towards sustainable energy production. In order to achieve this long-standing goal, fundamental understanding of the processes taking place at the electrode-electrolyte interface is vital. Progress here requires a comprehensive atomic-scale picture of the fundamental chemical and catalytic properties of surfaces, in connection to their macroscopic catalytic performance. This knowledge remains hindered due to the complexity of real catalytic systems and the lack of experimental techniques that can provide information of the catalytic process from single-molecule interaction to operando conditions.The project COSAS focuses on the electrochemical water oxidation to hydrogen peroxide and seawater electrolysis. It proposes an atomistic study of the electrode-electrolyte surface to unveil the key parameters for selective activation of alternative reaction paths for water oxidation. The experimental approach of the project represents a novel quasi-in situ electrochemical characterization (near ambient pressure x-ray photoemission spectroscopy), combined with atomic-scale access to the electronic structure (scanning tunnelling microscopy and spectroscopy) on the very same sample. The project will study thin films of transition metal oxides as model systems for exploring structure-function relationships, while presenting catalytic relevance for oxygen related reactions. The unique methodology of the project promises novel atomistic insight in the mechanism behind complex reactions with multiple intermediates, unveiling key parameters that can guide the design of active and selective electrocatalysts for cost-effective water electrolysis.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Enhancing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) pollution retention by superabsorbent polymer (SAP) amended to a grass swale prototype of green infrastructure' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), referred to as “forever chemicals”, are contaminants of escalating global concern. Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs), known for their high-water retention, offer a potential new approach for enhancing PFAS removal within green stormwater infrastructure (GSI), like grass swales, particularly in the face of climate change-driven weather events in urban environments. This project will focus on evaluating the retention potential of a group of highly mobile, short-chain PFAS, using a biological-based SAP integrated into a grass swale framework (prototype). To accomplish this, these specific working objectives (WOs) will be employed: WO1: evaluation of the retention and release processes of SAP for short-chain PFAS, using batch retention experiments (simple framework); WO2: assessing the efficacy of SAP in removing short-chain PFAS when incorporated into lab-scaled, grass-planted microcosms (simple framework of a grass swale system); WO3: assessing the efficacy of SAP in removing short-chain PFAS, when incorporated into flow-through, grass-planted mesocosms (‘real-world’ framework of a grass swale system). WO2 and WO3 experiments will employ percolation and drought simulations to evaluate SAP retention performance for PFAS during these conditions. The overall methodology will follow a 3-stage stepwise approach that starts with simple designs (batch experiments–WO1, microcosms–WO2) then increase in complexity to nearly real-world scenario (horizontal flow-through mesocosms–WO3). SAP integrated into swale substrates could serve as a temporary “removal” barrier for PFAS during storm runoff, thereby limiting their distribution throughout urban water systems and the water cycle. During drought periods, PFAS trapped in the water-saturated ge

user: Describe how 'CyaSafe: Bridging Gaps in Cyanobacteria Supplement Safety' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Food security and nutrition challenges, driven by population growth and climate change, underscore the need for sustainable solutions, leading to increased consumption of cyanobacteria-based supplements like Spirulina sp. and Nostoc sp. While these cyanobacteria are nutritionally rich, they may also produce potentially harmful secondary metabolites, including cyanotoxins. The presence and bioavailability of these compounds depend on factors such as cell wall integrity and metabolic transformation in the digestive tract. Current safety evaluations are insufficient, lacking comprehensive data on bioavailability and toxicological impacts. The CyaSafe project aims to bridge critical knowledge gaps in the safety and efficacy of cyanobacteria. The specific aims are as follows: first, through in vitro studies simulating human digestion, CyaSafe will assess how cyanobacterial metabolites are absorbed and transformed. Second, comprehensive toxicological testing will be performed to evaluate cytotoxicity and genotoxicity, establishing new safety benchmarks. Third, the project will utilize research findings to propose updated technical recommendations, improving regulatory frameworks for these supplements. In addition to its research objectives, CyaSafe will emphasize knowledge transfer and public awareness to foster a better understanding of the risks and benefits of cyanobacteria-based products.The project will be conducted at the Interdisciplinary Centre of Marine and Environmental Research of University of Porto, a leader in Marine and Environmental Research. A planned secondment with expertise in Toxicology and Food Safety, will facilitate the interdisciplinary collaboration and knowledge exchange.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Sequence and structural requirements for Y RNA cleavage' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Small non-coding RNAs play important roles in gene expression regulation. Initially the attention was focused on the 21-24-nucleotide small RNAs such as microRNAs but later on deeper sequencing experiments using next generation sequencing revealed a slightly longer class of small RNAs that are 30-34 nucleotides long. These longer small RNAs are often generated from  known non-coding RNAs such as tRNA or snoRNA. The biogenesis of these longer small RNAs seems to be diverse and is not well understood. The host laboratory have characterised the biogenesis of such longer small RNAs generated from Y RNAs in mammalian cells and found that it is different from microRNA biogenesis but also from the way tRNA derived small RNAs are produced. Results from a high-throughput mutagenesis approach suggest that the secondary structure of the Y RNA, rather than its sequence, determines where the cleavage happens that liberates the small RNAs from the 3' end of Y RNAs. This project aims validating these results and also to apply a high-throughput mutagensis screen on the 5' region of the Y RNA to study the production of small RNAs from that end of the molecule. Combining the results for Y RNA derived longer small RNA generation from both 5' and 3' end of these molecules will enable the experienced researcher to establish how this class of small RNAs are produced by designing specific novel mutants and test them in mammalian cells. Another aim of the project is to give training to the experienced researcher in mammalian cell biology and bioinformatics to add his existing molecular biology and microbiology skills.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Hall dominated turbulence in protoplanetary discs' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The goal of this project is to obtain a global and precise description of turbulence in protoplanetary discs.Protoplanetary discs are made of gas and dust orbiting around a young star. Among other things, we think discs are the birth place of planets. From the lifetime of these objects, we know that protoplanetary discs are accreting, i.e. matter is slowly ``falling'' on the central star. However, in order to explain the accretion of matter, astrophysicists have to assume that discs are turbulent. The way turbulence is sustained in these objects is still strongly debated. However, the magnetorotational instability is one of the most promising candidates to explain the anomalous transport observed in discs. The plasma in protoplanetary discs is known to be weakly ionised. Detailed calculations have shown that in such plasmas, a nonideal MHD effect known as the Hall effect should be dominant.The HallDiscs project will tackle the complex problem of MHD turbulence in a realistic model of accretion disc dominated by the Hall effect. It will in particular evaluate the importance of the Hall effect in the nonlinear regime of the MRI, where developed turbulence is found. This is of particular importance as this nonideal MHD effect can create new instabilities which could dramatically modify our vision of protoplanetary discs turbulence. This proposal relies on the use of a very efficient and highly accurate spectral MHD code to perform Hall-MHD numerical simulations. The HallDiscs project will provide unprecedented constrains on the properties of MHD turbulence in discs, the conditions associated with jet launching from discs and the initial stages of planet formation. Furthermore, this project offers a unique opportunity to bring back to IPAG the expertise in numerical MHD I h

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'MODIFICATION OF TITANIUM(IV) OXIDE WITH METAL COMPOUNDS FOR PHOTOCATALYSIS UNDER VISIBLE LIGHT IRRADIATION'.

assistant: **Concept**

Although environmental remediation by TiO2 photocatalysis has become increasingly interest among scientists in recent years, wide range application is still limited by its absorption below 400 nm. UV photons are much more expensive compared to visible ones, as the latter compose a large fraction of solar energy (UV light compose only 3% of the solar energy), and relatively cheap artificial light sources can be applied. In order to achieve a break through in photocatalytic applications of TiO2 and other stable semiconductor materials (mostly oxides), the photocatalytic properties must be improved, either by red shifting of the light absorption and/or enhancing quantum yield by inhibition of recombination of photogenerated charge carriers (e-/h+). TiO2 remains the most popular oxide semiconductor in photocatalysis R&D because of combination of unique features such as stability, low cost and high efficiency. It is believed that in addition to exploration of other oxides (e.g. WO3) and their mixtures, doping and surface modification of TiO2 is highly promising for increasing the efficiency and reducing the cost of photooxidation. Noble metals seem to be excellent modifiers, because they accelerate the transfer of photoexcited electrons of titania to substrates, and due to their photoabsorption inducing photocatalytic reaction under visible-light irradiation either by metal complexes fixed on titania or by photoexcitation of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of nanoparticles of noble metal. The present proposal concerns preparation and testing of new nanoparticle photocatalysts composed of metal oxides, as well as binary and ternary metal oxides/metal (metal complex) systems. The principle is the reduction of appropriate metal ions and ion mixtures with controlled s

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Cosmic Bells: Unveiling the composition of neutron stars with tidal oscillations' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Neutron stars (NSs) are among the densest objects in our Universe, yet what constitutes their interior remains unanswered. Recent studies suggest the existence of quark matter inside the heaviest NSs, while there is growing speculation about the presence of dark matter inside them. In addition to state-of-the-art electromagnetic experiments like NICER, we are now, for the first time, able to observe the evolution of binary NSs using gravitational waves (GWs) as well. With the advancement of GW observatories like LIGO, and the upcoming third-generation detectors on the horizon, there is now a unique opportunity to explore NS composition through their dynamical imprint on GW signals from compact object (CO) binary mergers. Yet, most theoretical efforts are still focused on static properties of NSs, which are unable to provide detailed information on their composition. The CosmicBells project seeks to address this gap by answering the critical question: what can we learn about exotic matter inside NSs by observing the impact of tidal oscillations on the GW signals of CO binaries? As a Marie Curie Fellow I will achieve this goal by providing theoretical predictions on the properties of gravitational-mode (g-mode) oscillations in exotic matter admixed NSs using state-of-the-art field theoretical methods. I will also develop a few-body model to simulate the evolution of dynamically formed CO systems, focusing on the effect of g-mode tides. Working alongside Prof. Johan Samsing at the Niels Bohr Institute, I will be provided with the ideal research environment to carry out this project. The proposed research will present a novel method to study the impact of g-mode tides in CO systems, which might serve as beacons to pinpoint the existence of exotic matter in NSs.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Cost-effective and reliable hydrogen sensors for facilitating the safe use of hydrogen', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

This project is related to the effective deployment and availability of reliable hydrogen sensors, primarily but not exclusively for use in applications using hydrogen as an alternative fuel.The objective is to support and unite stakeholders including sensor manufactures/developers, sensor end-users, certification bodies and independent sensor evaluators having the aim to avoid any hazardous events which could hinder the implementation of hydrogen as an alternative fuel by ensuring the availability and optimum use of low-cost and reliable hydrogen sensors. In doing so a European knowledge hub covering hydrogen sensing technologies, state of the art commercial products, near term applications and correct use of hydrogen sensors will be created.An output from this virtual knowledge hub will be state-of-the-art guidelines on how to select and properly use the best hydrogen sensor for a particular application. In addition the consortium will identify barriers (including those of a market, technical, manufacture-related and regulatory nature) which may hinder the commercialisation and wide spread of hydrogen sensors. Suggestions to overcome these barriers will be formulated in addition to recommendations for integration into ongoing or new RCS activities to be implemented at national and global levels. With the knowledge of these barriers it is expected that sensor manufacturers will be better equipped to design, manufacture and commercialise improved sensors at a lower cost, which are tailored to suit end-user requirements.  As a result end-users will benefit from a broader range of effective products to choose from for specific applications.A novel aspect of this project will be co-ordination and joint activities with a US consortium lead by the US Department of Energy (Na

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Mechano-sensitive gene expression in embryogenesis and tumourigenesis' (MECHANO), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The coordinated regulation of developmental gene expression and morphogenetic movements during embryogenesis relies on feedback between these two systems. Activation and maintenance of the expression of genes critical for embryogenesis can be dependent on mechanical induction triggered by morphogenetic movements within the embryo. This has been demonstrated by the host laboratory for the twist-dependent invagination of the anterior foregut in Drosophila, in response to compression caused by germ band extension.The twist pathway is activated by the mechano-sensitive translocation of Armadillo to the nucleus, which in turn initiates gene expression patterns triggering further morphogenetic movements, in part via inhibition of the adhesion protein E-cadherin. Homologous pathways act at the endothelial-mesenchymal transition of mammalian tumours, with nuclear translocation of B-catenin (mammalian Armadillo homologue), down-regulation of E-cadherin, and upregulation of twist. This pathway therefore represents a critical control point for regulation of tumour metastasis. I propose to extend the investigation of mechano-sensitive twist expression to mouse and human cancers, to determine whether mechanical strain caused by tumour growth is a contributor to metastasis.Initial studies will make use of a series of mouse mutants, which develop a controlled spectrum of stages of gastrointestinal cancer, and parallel studies will be carried out in clinical breast tumour tissues. Should a positive correlation be determined between endogenous or exogenous mechanical pressure and tumour metastasis, these studies could have serious implications for the safety and efficacy of screening mammography.
