user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Understanding Auditory Information Processing in Naturalistic Environments'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Studies of sensory processing in awake mammals are often limited to simple perceptual decisions, such as detecting the differences between two similar stimuli. However, such sensory tasks are usually limited by peripheral information, and do not tap into the special processing capabilities of the cortex. I hypothesize that neuronal responses in auditory cortex represent ethologically-relevant quantities that optimally summarize knowledge about the current scene and that allow behaviourally-relevant predictions of its future development. In order to study the role of such mechanisms in controlling behaviour, it is necessary to develop new technological and methodological tools.I will develop a semi-natural living environment for rats that will make it possible to train multiple animals to perform behavioural tasks while continuously recording the electrical activity of their brains. Neural activity will be recorded continuously using telemetry inside the environment, or periodically outside it with chronic imaging techniques. Brain activity will be manipulated with optogenetic techniques. This methodology will minimize human intervention, increasing the reproducibility of behavioral and electrophysiological data collection while reducing the number of animals used.Various amount of information about the states of the environment will be communicated to the rats with sounds. I will apply a new theory that rigorously quantifies the balance between information and reward. The theory will make it possible to deduce what the rats believe about the environment from their behavior, and to correlate these beliefs with neural activity.Hearing disorders are a major cause of reduction of quality of life, especially in the elderly population. Better understanding of auditory process

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fourth Framework proposal for the project 'BIOMASS FIRED CHP PLANT BASED ON AN ORC CYCLE - PROJECT ORC-STIA-ADMONT""'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The project proposed mainly focuses on the implementation of a biomass-fired CHP plant based on an ORC process (Organic Rankine Cycle) as a first demonstration within the European Community. An ecological and cost-effective operation of the process is only possible, if not only the electricity but also the heat produced by the ORC process can be utilized. The proper integration of the ORC process into the heat supply system and the installation of a flue gas condensation unit result in a maximum increase in the total efficiency of the whole process. After commissioning the plant will supply STIA-Holzindustrie GmbH with process and space heat and the Benedictine Monastery of Admont with space heat from biomass.Furthermore, the ORC process covers almost half of the electricity demand (+/- 45%) of STIA-Holzindustrie GmbH on a renewable basis. Only sawdust and chemically untreated wood residuals arising in-house will be fired at the plant. In this way it will be possible to substitute fossil fuels at the Benedictine Monastery of Admont (heavy heating oil) and at STIA-Holzindustrie GmbH (light heating oil) as well as electricity from fossil fuels. A further aim of the project is the reduction of dust emissions with the flue gas a rotational particle separator, which also represents a new and innovative technology, will be placed behind the biomass-fired combustion unit. It precipitates solid and liquid particles >0.1 µm and reaches almost the same precipitation efficiencies as electrostatic precipitators, with investment costs only 30%-40% higher than those of multi-cyclones.L%The main innovative component of the process is a biomass CHP plant based on an ORC process (electric nominal capacity : 400 kW, thermal nominal capacity : 2.25 MW). A silicon oil is utilized as the or

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Reconciling Work and Welfare in Europe' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The paramount objective of RECWOWE is to create a new, tightly integrated and durable European research network capable of overcoming the fragmentation of existing research on questions of work and welfare. RECWOWE will integrate existing research activities on two levels. By adopting a common focus on the various tensions that characterize the relationships between work and welfare, it will firstly promote knowledge focused on both simultaneously. Secondly, by constructing a network of specialists from different research domains and disciplines, it will create a basis for joint activities. The ultimate aim is the constitution of a ???virtual institute??? federating the research excellence necessary to identify and understand the multiple tensions between work and welfare, as well as strategies for managing or resolving them. RECWOWE will innovate in the field of labour market and social protection research in three related ways. The common focus on tensions will give rise to perspectives and questions for research that are currently lost in the ???void??? between existing research domains and academic disciplines. The activity of the network will promote new institutional and individual collaborations, based on novel combinations of disciplinary and geographical expertise. Combining these new questions and collaborations, RECWOWE will ultimately be a source of innovative new research projects focused on the interface between work and welfare. RECWOWE will, finally, seek to effectively share the new knowledge that is built up through its activities. It will organize specific training actions for students and professionals. It will centralize and publicize existing and new sources of data on work and welfare, and disseminate analyses and findings through a dedicated stru

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Visual and acoustical impact of wind farms on residents' (WINDFARMPERCEPTION), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The purpose of this study is to gain insight into the perception of a wind farm by residents living nearby such a farm. A survey will be held among residents living within an approximately 2 km radius of modern wind farms in the Netherlands.The wind farms will be taken from a list of all Dutch wind farms with modern > 500 kW) wind turbines. All residential addresses in postal code areas satisfying the distance criterion will receive a survey questionnaire. Non-respondents will receive a reminder.The questionnaire will be similar to the one used in a recent Swedish study and have three parts:- standard questions on socio-economic status and health;- questions on the local living environment, including (sensitivity to) potential environmental nuisances;- questions on the perceived impact of wind turbines.For each address the distance to, the angular size of the nearest wind turbine and the maximum sound emission level due to the wind farm will be determined. The analysis of the survey result s will yield information on the impact of a wind farm on local residents, with an emphasis on visual and noise impact and the possible interaction between both.The result will help in understanding to what degree a wind farm affects residents and what characteristics determine the impact. Also, the results will help in determining what mitigation measures may be effective in reducing local impact.

user: Explain how 'Low temperature near-nett powder metallugy route for the manufacture of complex shaped wear resistant parts' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

The proposal addresses the problem of producing high-density, high speed steel (HSS) components by a powder metallurgical process capable of being performed using standard (mesh-belt) furnaces. The aim is to identify alloying elements that will permit the sintering temperature in nitrogen atmospheres to be reduced from the current 1250C (under vacuum) to 1 150C or below. The objectives are:(i) Establish the optimum alloying additions and operating conditions for sintering at 1150C.(ii) Quantify improvements to part densities and mechanical properties.(iii) Demonstrate a continuous, cost effective process that produces near-nett shaped components. The benefits to the SME partners will include access to markets for HSS components currently controlled by US companies, the ability to use existing equipment and the reduction of the need for secondary finishing processes.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Vision Inspired Driver Assistance Systems' (VI-DAS) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Road accidents continue to be a major public safety concern. Human error is the main cause of accidents. Intelligent driver systems that can monitor the driver’s state and behaviour show promise for our collective safety. VI-DAS will progress the design of next-gen 720° connected ADAS (scene analysis, driver status). Advances in sensors, data fusion, machine learning and user feedback provide the capability to better understand driver, vehicle and scene context, facilitating a significant step along the road towards truly semi-autonomous vehicles. On this path there is a need to design vehicle automation that can gracefully hand-over and back to the driver. VI-DAS advances in computer vision and machine learning will introduce non-invasive, vision-based sensing capabilities to vehicles and enable contextual driver behaviour modelling. The technologies will be based on inexpensive and ubiquitous sensors, primarily cameras. Predictions on outcomes in a scene will be created to determine the best reaction to feed to a personalised HMI component that proposes optimal behaviour for safety, efficiency and comfort. VI-DAS will employ a cloud platform to improve ADAS sensor and algorithm design and to store and analyse data at a large scale, thus enabling the exploitation of vehicle connectivity and cooperative systems. VI-DAS will address human error analysis by the study of real accidents in order to understand patterns and consequences as an input to the technologies. VI-DAS will also address legal, liability and emerging ethical aspects because with such technology comes new risks, and justifiable public concern. The insurance industry will be key in the adoption of next generation ADAS and Autonomous Vehicles and a stakeholder in reaching L3. VI-DAS is positioned ideally a

user: Explain how 'A combined approach to smart imaging agents- using heterometallic lanthanide complexes as diagnostics' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

This proposal aims to develop new contrast agents, derived from heterobinuclear lanthanide complexes, for use in imaging. These will combine the interesting properties of gadolinium complexes used in magnetic resonance imaging with those of luminescent lanthanide ions used in time-resolved micrscopy and assay applications.  Our aims are fourfold, namely: To develop synthetic strategies which allow us to prepare heterometallic complexes suitable for multimodal imaging, using multi-component reactions or approaches involving diazo coupling to access these complexes; To develop methods by which nucleotide or PNA recognition domains are used to facilitate rapid transport of imaging components and programmed self-assembly of the multimodal imaging edifice at the target site; To develop switchable multi-modal agents, whose properties are altered by chemical or electrochemical change; and To prepare and study a range of multimodal imaging agents that can be targeted to cell surface receptors, and which have sufficiently high relaxivity to provide meaningful MRI contrast at low concentrations.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Design, fabrication and optimization of a novel integrated UV-microwave assisted catalytic reactor for the continuous flow treatment of wastewater' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

UVMICROCAT uses an innovative catalytic mesh assisted by a combination of UV and microwave technology for fast and effective treatment of large volumes of wastewater for water re-use.The project proposes an environmentally-friendly, totally innovative method for the treatment of toxic and recalcitrant contaminants in wastewater by enhancing the rate of a novel heterogeneous catalytic treatment process using microwave energy and ultraviolet radiation. The modified PAN catalysts developed at DMU has eliminated the need for iron removal post treatment and has broadened the pH range of application, whilst enabling continuous flow processes favoured by industry. In recent years, several reports have demonstrated the use of microwave and ultraviolet radiation to promote the oxidative degradation of bio-refractory wastes due to their advantages of speeding up the reaction, high-efficiency with no pollution to the environment. Nevertheless the use of microwaves in catalysis and in the water and wastewater industry remains at laboratory scale and therefore requires further in depth research. The major challenges in the water/wastewater industries are centered on the poor penetration depth of microwaves. In the project, we propose to design a UV and microwave assisted reactor which overcomes this scale-up problem. The design of the scalable microwave reactor will not only add new knowledge to the sector but open up new areas of industrial application for microwaves.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Boosting the uptake of circular business model, product and process innovation', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Up2Circ will demonstrate a replicable pathway to motivate and effectively support SMEs to innovate and transform towards sustainable growth and adresses the need of EU innovation support ecosystems to better join forces and make best use of synergies in order to enable a quick and comprehensive transition of Europe's SMEs towards a circular economy on a large scale. With the Up2Circ-Accelerator the project accompanies SMEs from exploration of opportunities to concrete implementation projects concerning the uptake of circular business model, product and process innovation, focussing on achievable innovation measures with clear mid-term benefits for the SMEs. Up2Circ is dismantling barriers with a customized, client-centric advisory approach and gives access to specific expertise and skills that SMEs need to develop a concrete action plan on how to transition. Learning modules of Up2Circ-Academy will connect sustainable innovation, the uptake of advanced technologies and social innovation aspects under the holistic concept of a circular economy and will be compiled based on existing results and in close cooperation with EU networks and initiatives such as ATI, EDIH, ECCP, EIT and OITB. Up2Circ methodology and materials will be made available to SME innovation advisors and trainings will be offered targeting e.g. EEN sustainability advisors to upscale project results. Further, to increase efficiency of EU innovation support ecosystems, four leveraging effects will be demonstrated and exploited: Make use of existing results, reach out more efficiently to SMEs, make use of complementary strengths, establish closer connections.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'The dynamics of the mammalian epigenome during transcription factor-induced cell fate conversion' (3Dconvert).

assistant: **Innovation**

Cell fate conversion processes bear considerable therapeutic potential yet are poorly understood, and have thus remained slow, inefficient and difficult to translate into medical applications. The low conversion frequency in current systems, such as classic reprogramming to ‘induced’ pluripotent stem (iPS) cells, has precluded a molecular study of the critical early conversion events. We propose an interdisciplinary, exhaustive and unbiased approach to unravel the molecular events that accompany cell fate conversion processes, in particular during the early phase, using two uniquely efficient and controllable experimental systems. Special emphasis will be put on documenting the dynamics of three-dimensional genome topology, as this potential epigenetic conversion barrier has not yet been systemically characterized during cell fate conversions. We will apply genome-wide chromosome conformation capture and other genomic technologies on B cells undergoing nearly 100% efficient transdifferentiation into macrophages or reprogramming into iPS cells. In-depth computational analyses and dataset integration will reveal the dynamic relationships between transcription factor binding, key epigenetic regulatory mechanisms including genome topology, and the gene expression changes that ultimately lead to the implementation of a new cellular phenotype. Acquiring such insights will signify a breakthrough in our understanding of the epigenetic features that underpin cell identity and plasticity. Besides significantly advancing the state-of-the-art, the proposed action will maximize the applicant’s capacity of reaching professional maturity and scientific independence.
