user: Describe how 'Linking neuronal activity to ecology: How the sensory environment of a species shapes the neural representation of the external world in the insect brain' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Animals navigate their surroundings in a large variety of environments, ranging from dim forests at night to bright open fields during the day. How have their brains evolved to achieve precise visually guided behaviors in such different environments? Despite their small eyes and tiny brains, insects perform sophisticated orientation behaviors in almost all ecological niches on Earth. This, and their experimental accessibility, make them ideal models to pursue the aim of the proposed experiments: to reveal the neural principles that allow animal brains to produce precise navigational commands within specific environments, despite limited and often noisy sensory information. We will study the central complex (CX), a highly conserved brain region involved in sensory integration and motor planning across insects. In locusts and monarch butterflies the CX likely serves as an internal compass during migration, and CX-neurons are highly conserved between these two species, despite 360 million years of evolutionary distance. We now hypothesize that the CX underlies general orientation behavior in all insects. We will test this using electrophysiology and comparative neuroanatomy, first verifying the functional ground plan of the CX suggested by its conserved morphology. We will study two species of bees, which are non-migratory, share similar behavioral strategies, but inhabit vastly different environments (nocturnal vs diurnal). We will develop a novel virtual reality arena to present natural skylight cues combined with classic visual stimuli, all mimicking the natural habitats of both species. We will then characterize how each species’ lifestyle has shaped the neural circuitry of the CX for optimal performance in its particular ecological niche. By linking the ecology of a s

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Integrated Approaches for Sustainable European Wine Production'.

assistant: **Objectives**

About 65% of the world’s wine production is managed by European winegrowers. Wine production in Europe is traditionally performed by small and medium sized, family owned companies and co-operatives. Solid and liquid residues are not treated in an appropriate way what has a serious impact on the environment. Wine production is known to produce high amounts of wastewater with sometimes extremely high organic loads (COD 2.500-67.000 mg/L). This leads to shock loads to municipal wastewater treatment plants or to serious impacts on rivers and lakes, in case the vineyard is not connected to a sever system at all. In addition, solid residues are also not handled properly, being in many cases deposited in vineyards as compost or fertilizer, whose degradation leads to odour formation and ground water contamination and infectious diseases. These treatment systems have been proven to be ineffective in complying with the legislative environmental requirements, disposal regulations, and safety restrictions for solid re-use. Moreover, the tremendous potential of the remaining high-value, biologically active substances and valorisation activities are generally unused or unknown. In addition, environmental legislations and quality regulations become stricter and force vineyards to take measures to improve the environmental situation in wine production. The associations are aware of this situation and want to initiate necessary R&D activities to offer technical assistance to their member SMEs. To cope with this challenge the wine producers need technnical support. Therefore SUSTAVINO intends to help the European wine producers, to meet environmental regulations by providing an Environmental Quality Strategy for Sustainable Wine production (EQSW), which will encompass integrated approach

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Bacterial regulation of Apis neurophysiology' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Gut microbes are known to affect the neurophysiology of their hosts and genome sequencing now easily allows metabolic characterization of elusive microbial diversity that cannot be cultured. While investigations on the neurological and behavioural consequences of mammalian gut symbionts have grown exponentially in recent years, little is known about the ‘gut microbiota–brain axis’ in insects of major economic interest. The applicant is a molecular evolutionary ecologist who previously used gene expression data to predict physiological modifications in the honeybee after insemination and published a comparative analysis of bacterial symbionts across ants. He now aims to realize an inter-disciplinary program to map the neurological and behavioural extended phenotypes of gut symbionts in bees. Through experimental approaches of microbiome manipulation, neurotranscriptomics, behavioural-tracking, FISH, and isotope-labelling of bacterial metabolites, the project seeks to understand: (i) the extent to which Apis mellifera gut symbionts affect host brain function by identifying the specific bacteria, their metabolic products, and the brain regions involved in host-symbiont interactions, and (ii) assess whether these processes affect behavioural traits relevant for the social organization of bees. None of these objectives have been addressed before and achieving them has high potential to change the way in which biologists think about bacterial symbioses and animal behaviour. The project includes training-through-research for the applicant in microbiology, behavioural ecology, microscopy and bioinformatics, and considerable knowledge transfer in transcriptomics and conceptual symbiosis theory from the applicant to the host groups. Although challenging in its ambitions, the proj

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Black hole spin and mass function in gaseous proto-clusters' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Gravitational-wave (GW) Astronomy opened a new window to the Universe from its infant state to the present. The key physical systems which allow probing the Universe through these vast time and length scales are Black Holes (BH). Low metallicity clouds, composed primarily of atomic hydrogen, before and during the epoch of reionization, are a natural environment for BHs to be born and form Binary Black Holes (BBH) which can merge via GW emission. Stellar BHs, being the remnants of the death of very massive stars, are generated early when a huge gas reservoir is available for accretion. Mass segregation leads the BHs close to the center of the system and a dense BH-subcluster, supported by gravitational fluctuations, is formed. The low metallicity of the gas suppresses cooling, while turbulence of the gas and the BHs’ motion further favor quasi-spherical accretion, surpassing the Eddington limit. For sufficiently compact configurations, the BHs shall grow in mass before the gas is depleted by stellar evolution and formation feedback processes. This rapid mass growth through turbulent hot accretion shall leave a distinct spin signature on the BHs. The BBH that accrete gas quasi-spherically may harden if there is not significant angular momentum loss from the system. Furthermore, these are also ideal conditions for high-redshift Intermediate Mass Black Holes (IMBH) to form. We shall calculate the spin distribution of stellar BHs accreting gas in proto-clusters, calculate the BH mass function following such accretion events, investigate the evolution of separation in accreting BBH in low-metallicity hot turbulent gas, develop theoretical models for the evolution of a BH-subcluster inside proto-clusters and investigate the formation of IMBH. Finally, we shall develop methods

user: Describe how 'Innovation and Networking for Fatigue and Reliability Analysis of Structures - Training for Assessment of Risk' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

INFRASTAR aims to develop knowledge, expertise and skill for optimal and  reliable management of structures. The generic methodology will be applied to bridges and wind turbines in relation to fatigue offering the opportunity to deal with complementary notions (such as old and new asset management, unique and similar structures, wind and traffic actions) while addressing 3  major challenges: 1/advanced modelling of concrete fatigue behaviour,  2/new non destructive testing methods for early aged damage detection and 3/probabilistic approach of structure reliability under fatigue. Benefit of cross-experience and inter-disciplinary synergies will create new knowledge. INFRASTAR proposes innovative solutions for civil infrastructure asset management so that young scientists will acquire a high employment profile in close dialogue between industry and academic partners.Modern engineering methods, including probabilistic approaches, risk and reliability assessment tools, will take into account the effective structural behaviour of existing bridges and wind turbines by exploiting monitored data. Existing methods and current state-of -the art is based on excessive conservatism which produces high costs and hinders sustainability.INFRASTAR will improve knowledge for optimising the design of new structures, for more realistic verification of structural safety and more accurate prediction of future lifetime of the existing structures. That is a challenge for a sustainable development because it reduces building material and energy consumption as well as CO2 production.Within the global framework of optimal infrastructure asset management, INFRASTAR will result in a multi-disciplinary body of knowledge covering generic problems from the design stage process of the new civil infras

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Hard work, plastic flow: a data-centric approach to dislocation-based plasticity' (DISCO-DATA).

assistant: **Concept**

Metals as structural materials are at the core of our society. Almost everything we physically interact with includes some form of metal manufactured to specific properties and formed into a desired shape. Consequently, the understanding and design of the balance between ductility and strength of metals are one of the primary disciplines of materials science. On a fundamental level, this is the description of crystalline line defects called dislocations. At the atomic scale, the current understanding of dislocations is often on the level of individual dislocation properties. At the component scale, collective behavior is commonly formulated in continuum variables with the drawback of limited applicability over a wide range of possible scenarios. Our current understanding still shows a gap in how individual dislocation properties translate into their collective behavior. To address this long-standing question, I propose a data-centric approach. First, a comprehensive dataset of dislocation ensemble trajectories for various loading and initial conditions is created using discrete dislocation dynamics as well as molecular dynamics simulations and iteratively extended. The trajectories are subsequently analyzed with tools borrowed from graph theory and time-series analysis to capture the network character of dislocation structures. Subsequently, a novel class of plasticity models is developed: instead of human-derived state variables, I will `let the data speak for itself’ to bridge the gap between individual and collective dislocation behavior. The project solves two timely challenges in materials science: One is the described gap, and the other is a demonstration of effective research data management of complex materials data providing solutions to data generation, storag

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'A co-operative mHEALTH environment targeting adherence and management of patients suffering from Heart Failure'.

assistant: **Objectives**

HEARTEN will design, develop and validate an ICT co-operative environment that will enable the HF patients to achieve sustainable behavior change regarding their adherence and compliance, and the ecosystem actors to be engaged and improve the patients’ HF management. HEARTEN targets all actors related to the management of patients suffering from HF, including healthcare professionals, caregivers (formal/informal), healthcare providers nutritionists, fitness experts and health insurance experts, towards developing a multi-stakeholder patient centered mHealth ecosystem. The target population of HEARTEN are patients with chronic and acute HF, either post-ischemic or with dilated cardiomyopathy, requiring occasionally re-admittance into hospitals. The idea is to develop biosensors that detect and quantify novel breath and saliva HF biomarkers, being identified through analytical techniques. These biomarkers reflect the health status of the patient and identify whether the patient adheres to the administered drugs. The breath biosensor will be integrated into the smartphone while the saliva biosensor will be integrated into the patient’s cup. Additional sensors for monitoring the ECG, the blood pressure and the physical activity constitute the sensor kit of the patient. The input data are complemented with nutrition information from the patient’s smartphone, weight monitoring through wireless weight scales as well as the patient’s profile and information directly added by the caregivers and the healthcare professionals. The multiparametric data are transmitted to the HEARTEN cloud architecture, where a knowledge management system analyses them and delivers critical information at hand. HF patients are empowered in self-management, by using their smartphones and tracking thei

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Space weather and Europe and education tool with the Sun' (SWEETS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Space weather (sw) is primarily an astronomical phenomenon due to the solar activity and cosmic rays but it's study is by nature interdisciplinary and encompasses various fields of physics, engineering and human activities.  SW showed already significant effects like failures in satellite navigation (GPS), in telecommunication, or spacecraft losses, electricity cut off, pipeline corrosion, radiation risks on aircraft passengers and electronics. It will increase the impacts on every day life - like for instance on applications of Galileo satellite navigation.  SW effects on terrestrial weather like global warming are studied, on long-term climate change and on biological systems has been conjectured. SWEETS will also demonstrate the beauty and significance of t he Sun, solar activities, cosmic rays and space weather to Europe. The solar aspect of this phenomenon becomes known more and more to the public. However the other ones remain largely ignored despite of its great potential of interest for several scientific, commercial and security sectors all over Europe. Europe achieved significant capacities in the field of space weather as well as solar science and this should be presented in the public. SWEETS project aims to promoting and raising public awareness by means of 13 very attractive and high quality deliverables (sw mobile truck tour, CD-Rom, exhibitions, rocket & balloon campaign and others) during science weeks and festivals in 27 countries all over Europe. SWEETS consortium consists of 17 members. ES A, EU/ESF COST actions 724 & 296 and the International Heliophysical Year 2007 also support and cooperate with SWEETS activities. SWEETS is a continuation of a tradition of European collaboration on the 50th anniversary of International Geophysical Year (1957-2007)

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Show me your colour: the neuroendocrine and molecular underpinnings of phenotypic variation in colour and aggression in cichlid fish'.

assistant: **Objectives**

One of the most intriguing questions in evolutionary biology is why some groups of animals contain many species while others contain only a few. One important factor influencing biodiversity is selection on a male secondary sexual trait arising from aggressive competition between males to gain access to females or resources. Colour polymorphic species are excellent to study effects of competition on the evolution of phenotypic diversity. Typically one morph is behaviourally dominant over the other. This covariance in phenotypic traits has implications for sexual and natural selection and patterns of gene flow. Next to addressing such ultimate questions, it is highly important to study the proximate mechanisms underlying phenotypic covariance. The species flock of Lake Victoria cichlid fish is a major model system for adaptive radiation and speciation research. In addition, the polymorphic cichlid species Astatotilapia burtoni has become a major model system used to understand the molecular basis of complex vertebrate behaviours. In the proposed project I will combine the strength of these two systems. I will utilize the outgoing phase to learn genomic and neuroendocrine tools and will identify candidate genes and gene clusters underlying the polymorphism in colour and behaviour in A. burtoni. I will then test the hypothesis that hormones modulating coloration have pleiotropic effects on behaviour and physiology. During the return phase I will employ my newly acquired expertise to identify genes underlying phenotypic diversity in several species of Lake Victoria cichlids. The results of these experiments will provide a proximate framework linking the vast knowledge obtained through years of studying a traditional model organism (A. burtoni) with the unique opportunity pr

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'EcoD – Bringing new life to cod waste turning it into protein powder for human consumption'.

assistant: **Objectives**

With a global population growth from 7.3 billion to 9.7 billion by 2050, the protein demand is expected to double from the current 202 million tons/year. Protein sources are either animal- or plant-based and their production is depleting the environmental given their high water and land utilization as well as the large Green House Gas Emissions during production. Therefore, there is an urgent need for shifting the production of protein onto a more sustainable path. Iceland Protein (IS) is facing this challenge by developing EcoD, the first rich-protein powder for human consumption sourced from soft cod roes, a rest raw material (2% of cod volume) highly rich in essential and non-essential amino acids mainly discarded as food waste with only 8% utilized to produce low-value products not for human consumption. With EcoD we exploit fish waste, making it profitable and with a lesser impact on the environment adding value and turning it into a high-quality product for human consumption. Currently, most protein powders are sourced from cow’s milk protein such as whey and casein, eggs, or soy and peas. These products are banned for people with dietary restrictions (allergy and intolerance to dairy products, allergy to eggs or soy). EcoD is eligible this segment of people while providing the FAO/WHO recommended daily intake of essential amino acids and, in most cases, higher amino acid content than commercial alternatives. Furthermore, EcoD is especially beneficial for physically active individuals and elders thanks to its high glycine and arginine favoring muscle strengthening.Our product will be marketed via our well-established distributors and wholesalers (B2B) to bring EcoD until our targeted end-users. With this project (€1.5M additional investment) we seek to finalize th
