user: Describe how 'Enabling Virtual Access to Latin-american Southern Observatories' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The increasing cost of experimental facilities in many research fields is powering a concentration of such facilities in a few selected places, sometimes driven also by environmental conditions.The clear, steady skies without light pollution necessary to Astronomical Observatories are generally not easily found. In the Southern hemisphere the best observing facility for optical and infrared astronomy is widely acknowledged to be ESO.At the same time the ever increasing data volumes as detectors get bigger and more complex, raises a number of problems for the builders, the operators and the users as well.The remoteness of the facilities makes the travelling from European home institutions difficult and expensive.Information Technologies can offer a solution to these problems, provided the necessary infrastructure and tools are put in place.The strategic objective of this proposal is to make possible a strict integration in the ever-growing instrumental grid emerging worldwide of the world-class facilities created in Chile by the European Astronomical Community. These represent an investment of many hundred million Euros that will be exploited in the next decades.The present project proposes to create a physical infrastructure (and the tools to exploit it) to efficiently connect these facilities to Europe. The infrastructure will be complementary to the international infrastructures created in the last years with the EC support (RedCLARA, ALICE, GEANT) and will be another step in the creation in Latin America of an advanced instrumentation GRID. This will allow the European Research a competitive edge having faster access to the collected data and use the facilities in an ever more efficient way.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Cellular and molecular interactions between nematophagous fungi, roots and plant-parasitic nematodes' (1998-2002) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The host department and the applicant have cooperated during the last two years. Apart from the scientific collaboration, the applicant has taught post-graduate courses and has been member of the University examination board for PhD students of the Department. With this proposal we intend to strengthen our scientific cooperation for a longer and continuous period. The applicant has a long experience of working with interactions between nematophagous fungi, as well as plant-parasitic fungi, nematodes and plants on both cellular and ecological levels. He has focused an important part of his research work on recognition phenomena, e.g. attraction and adhesion, between nematophagous fungi and their hosts. The group in Alicante works with fungal parasites of eggs of plant parasitic nematodes. The team is currently investigating factors related with the pathogenicity of these antagonists, such as differentiation of appressoria and rhizosphere colonization. The differentiation of hyphal tips into appressoria is a prerequisite for successful fungal infection. The appressoria involve adhesive properties, and formation and release, of lytic enzymes, which have been studied by the applicant during several years.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Durable, Environmentally Friendly and High-quality Leather Alternative' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Materiko is an Italian company specialising in the manufacture of revolutionary artificial high quality textiles. Due to the flexibility, and high-quality afforded by genuine leather, compared to conventional textiles, it has been used for centuries as material in several industries. However, leather is prone to scratching, water damage and UV damage which can limit its uses, particularly in external applications. Furthermore, the way in which leather is produced presents a huge environmental problem. The tanning process for genuine leather uses on average 360 L of water per m2 and over 50 L of that needs to be processing by wastewater treatment plants for chromium waste considered to be hugely toxic by the EU. To alleviate these environmental problems as well as consumer movement towards non-animal origin products a range of artificial leathers have been developed such as PVC and polyurethane (PU) based faux leathers and natural plant based options. PVC and PU based artificial leather have their own environmental problems including similarly high water usage, use of toxic chemicals and poor recyclability. Both plastic based and plant based leather alternatives have durability and quality issues when replicating genuine leather. The need for a high-quality, more durable, weather-proof leather like material which eliminates animal cruelty, water usage and toxic wastage associated with the genuine leather industry is clear and one for which Materiko have developed an innovative solution. Our EcoLeather is a novel material manufactured using an innovative semi-automatic manufacturing technique which produces a water and chemical free leather alternative which improves upon the physical properties of genuine, such as durability, scratch and weather resistance.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Neural mechanisms of self-tickle cancellation in humans'.

assistant: **Innovation**

In perception, neural responses are never identical, even to the same sensory stimuli. This variability is particularly evident in the somatosensory domain: why does the same tactile input feel ticklish when applied by others but not by ourselves? The phenomenon of self-tickle cancellation has intrigued philosophers, biologists, and psychologists for centuries. Motor control theories propose that self-generated movements elicit top-down predictions in the cerebellum that suppress bottom-up tactile input in the somatosensory cortex. However, how these top-down and bottom-up signals interact in the somatosensory cortex – and particularly across its different layers – to cancel self-tickle is unclear.NeuroSelfTickle aims to unravel these complexities with advanced electroencephalography, psychophysical modelling and laminar magnetoencephalography. The project seeks to identify neural markers of tickle sensation, map layer-specific cortical activity in top-down and bottom-up signal integration, and apply these insights to understand the neurocognitive mechanisms of self-tickle cancellation.This interdisciplinary approach combines well-established motor control theories with cutting-edge neuroimaging techniques and state-of-the-art haptic robotics, allowing for highly controlled yet naturalistic self-touch stimulation. The findings are expected to provide fundamental insights into how self-generated predictions influence neural computations and enhance our understanding of brain disorders where self-tickle cancellation fails, such as schizophrenia and autism.NeuroSelfTickle will create a synergy between the applicant's expertise in somatosensory neural oscillations and excitability fluctuations, and the host lab's pioneering research on tickle perception and self-tickle canc

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'High-resolution simulation of magnetic fields in galaxy clusters' under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The interaction between magnetic fields and hot intra-cluster medium is a key open question concerning galaxy clusters in cosmology. Magnetic fields are thought to operate in the cooling flow paradox (the theoretically expected cooling rate of the intra-cluster medium is orders of magnitudes larger than the one observed) , in cold fronts ( the sharp observed X-ray features suggest suppression of thermal conductivity) and in the missing mass problem (the mass estimated from X-ray data using hydrostatic equilibrium is often lower than that inferred from the dynamics of member galaxies or from gravitational lensing) . The goal of this project is to extend previous numerical work - which gave the first consistent picture of how magnetic fields evolve in galaxy clusters - towards more realistic simulations, using higher resolution and including radiative cooling processes . The ability to describe regimes where magnetic fields dominate cluster dynamics is needed, as observations indicate strong magnetic fields within clusters ' cooling flow regions. This project would lead to the first 3D MHD simulations of galaxy clusters with radiative cooling, and is expected to have substantial impact on the scientific discussion about discrepancies between theoretical predictions and observations of cooling flows in galaxy clusters. The simulations would also shed new light on other open questions related to magnetic fields in galaxy clusters.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Realizing the promise of gravitational wave astronomy'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The era of gravitational wave astronomy has begun and has the potential to redefine our knowledge of the Universe. LIGO and Virgo are the most precise instruments ever built, but this is only the beginning for this field. The detectors are becoming ever more sensitive, and the next generation of detectors are already being planned. Coupled with these trailblazing experimental efforts, the promise of gravitational wave astronomy can only be fully realized if our models can keep up with the accuracy demands of the imminent high-precision era.LIGO and Virgo hunt for gravitational waves from orbiting black holes and neutron stars; these compact objects lose energy through gravitational waves, spiral in towards each other and eventually merge. To analyze the data from the detections, it is crucial to have an accurate model of the expected gravitational waves. The merger process is highly dynamical and numerical simulations involving the Einstein equations are the only means to predict the gravitational waves from the merger. However, these simulations are too expensive for direct data analysis applications, each taking a month on a supercomputer. Therefore, fast but approximate waveform models that are calibrated against these simulations have been developed over the years, but these models do not currently capture all of the physics present in the simulations.Surrogate models take a data-driven approach to modeling, and are trained directly against numerical simulations without the need for additional assumptions. As a result, these models can even rival the simulations themselves in accuracy. In this project, I will develop novel surrogate models that capture the full physics of compact binary systems. Therefore, this project will ensure that our gravitational wave models

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Study of the molecular events induced by specific functional foods with a double targeting to effectively reduce cholesterol levels' (CHOLESTENOT) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

This proposal is focused on the development of a meat-based functional food (pâté, sausage, snacks etc.) able to effectively reduce cholesterol levels in serum by acting simultaneously at two different levels: (I) reducing endogenous cholesterol synthesis by inhibiting the hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (the key enzyme in the cholesterol metabolism) and (II) impairing exogenous cholesterol absorption during digestion by its displacement from the dietary mixed micelles and binding of bile acids during the intestinal digestion to avoid their reabsorption. Edible mushrooms will be submitted to accelerate solvent extraction (ASE) and supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) to obtain (T1) polysaccharides (b-glucans), (T2) statin-like or other metabolites and (T3) ergosterol-derivatives concentrates. These concentrates and their mixtures (T1+T2+T3 in a meat-based food matrix) will be screened for their properties to act as (I) and (II). All samples will be submitted to in vitro digestion and absorption tests (using Caco2 cell models) to study their bioavailability and molecular mechanism of action. Responsible compounds will be identified and quantified by analytical standardized tools (HPLC-, GC-MS etc)

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'SHARED GREEN DEAL: Social sciences & Humanities for Achieving a Responsible, Equitable and Desirable GREEN DEAL' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The Social sciences & Humanities for Achieving a Responsible, Equitable and Desirable GREEN DEAL (SHARED GREEN DEAL) project brings together 22 leading organisations from across the EU including 8 universities, 3 research institutions, 8 network organisations and 3 SMEs.  Our network partners cover core elements of the European Green Deal cross cutting priorities such as civil society, democracy, gender, energy, environment, circular economy and innovation. Our objectives directly address the call challenge with an aim to share actions, understandings, evidence, insights, responsibilities and benefits across stakeholders including policymakers and civil society. Issues of inclusivity and diversity are at the heart of the project to particularly account for disadvantaged and vulnerable social groups. SHARED GREEN DEAL will meet its objectives through a set of 11 workpackages. It is structured around lessons from a set of 6 social experiments around 6 priority Green Deal topics. Each social experiment will be delivered across 4 member states. Importantly we take a transdisciplinary approach, covering 19 social science and humanities disciplines, with multi-stakeholder, practice-based and policy-science expertise, including gender studies as a key component throughout. The output includes the development of tools (e.g. an online Green Deal policy tracker), as well as translating project findings into stakeholder-specific policy briefs and roundtable events. The partners are committed to continuing to host the transnational network set up post-project to ensure longevity and impact beyond the life of the project. SHARED GREEN DEAL is expected to deliver changes in societal practices and in the behaviour of individuals, communities, and public and private organisations. Thro

user: Explain how 'Handbook for Approval of Hydrogen Refuelling Stations' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

HyApproval is a STREP to develop a Handbook (HB) facilitating the approval of hydrogen refuelling sta-tions (HRS). The project will be performed over 24 months by a balanced partnership including 25 partners from industry, SMEs and institutes which ensure the critical mass and required know how for obtaining the identified project goals. Most partners have extensive expertise from HRS projects. Key partners from China/ Japan / USA provide an additional liaison to international regulations, codes & stand ards activities. The project goals are to finalise the HRS technical guideline started under EIHP2 and to contribute to the international standard under development at ISO TC197 and in first line to provide a HB which assists com-panies and organisations i n the implementation and operation of HRS. The HB will be based on best prac-tices reflecting the existing technical know-how and regulatory environment, but also includes the flexibility to allow new technologies and design to be introduced at a later sta ge. In order to meet these goals, best practises will be developed from project experience (CUTE, ECTOS, EIHP1&2, HySafe, CEP, ZERO REGIO) and partner activities. In 5 EU countries (F/D/I/E/NL) and in China, Japan and the USA the HyApproval process wil l include a HB review by country authorities to pursue broad agreement" and to define "approval routes". After finalising the HB process the developed requirements and procedures to get "Approval in Principle" shall be suffi-ciently advanced to seek appro val in any European country without major modifications. Not only infra-structure companies, HRS operators/owners and local authorities but also the EC will profit from the HB that is deemed to contribute to the safe implementation of a hydrogen infrastruc ture.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Optical valley Hall effect in gapped graphene for infrared and terahertz light photodetection' (VHPC).

assistant: **Concept**

Modern information processing is based on the degrees of freedom (DOF) of electrons, which are known as charge and spin. Manipulating DOF of electrons is the core function of information-processing unit such as transistor and photodetector. Finding and manipulating new DOF for electrons may open up possibility for next-generation information processing, such as quantum computing. Recently, a new DOF of electrons—valley pseudospin—was found in two dimensional (2D) hexagonal lattices, whose band structures manifest a pair of valleys at the corner of the hexagonal Brillouin zone (labeled as K and -K valley), giving rise to a valley DOF that is in close analogy to electron spin. As 2D hexagonal crystal, graphene, with ultrahigh carrier mobility and ultrafast optoelectronic signal processing ability, has great potential as carrier of valley DOF and intriguing prospect for both fundamental research and practical application of valleytronics. Therefore manipulating valley pseudospin of electrons in graphene would greatly advance the study of valleytronics. This proposal presents the first experimental study of Berry optoelectronics in gapped graphene, in particular extremely strong Valley Hall effects and Valley Hall dynamics. The implementation includes three sections. The first is to break inversion symmetry of graphene crystal by fabricating graphene/boron nitride heterostructure and dual-gate bilayer graphene device. This symmetry breaking allows the Bloch electrons in K and -K valleys to experience valley-contrasted orbital magnetic moments and Berry curvatures, which result in valley-dependent optical selection rule and valley Hall effect. This supplies us paradigm for infrared and terahertz photodetection for section two. In section three, we explore the dynamics of con

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'Enhanced interoperability of biological databases by standardisation of biochemical terminology and introduction of a shared ontology (BIOBABEL)'.

assistant: **Concept**

The Bio Babel project will combine the different strengths of European groups working on various aspects of standardisation of biochemical terminology in databases to develop and implement controlled vocabulary and a common ontology to describe biological attributes in biological databases. This will allow users to do complex queries across databases in a much simpler way by enhancing database interoperability, The Bio Babel partners will introduce the standardised demonology in all the databases they produce and maintain. Accessing these then highly interoperable sequence databases, genomic databases, protein motif databases, enzyme databases and nomenclature databases will allow researchers to infer knowledge about the structure and function of genes and proteins and to relate these to the existing corpus of scientific knowledge.
