user: Explain how 'Microfluidics-assisted design and construction of light-responsive protocells' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Protocells are synthetic models of cells exhibiting rudimentary life-like properties, such as compartmentalization, sensing or replication, and constitute as such primitive forms of cellularity that could help to understand the origin of life. The remarkable properties of these smart micromachines can also be harnessed to tackle key societal challenges, including environmental clean-up, energy production, or drug delivery. Advances in this field would greatly benefit from the precise activation of protocells in both space and time. However, fine control over protocellular functions has been minimal to date. Conventional types of actuation (e.g. T, pH) do not allow spatiotemporal guidance due to their inherent inertia or the need to add chemicals. Light provides an attractive alternative for the remote manipulation of protocells with an extremely high spatiotemporal resolution. However, there is no precedent of light-actuated protocells in the literature. The aim of this proposal is precisely to design and construct a new class of photo-responsive protocells capable of being manipulated, activated or silenced quickly and locally in response to light. The bottom-up protocell assembly will be performed by microfluidics, whose powerful abilities in terms of modularity, reliability or sensitivity will be exploited to produce structurally well-defined architectures, and study interactions between protocells in a way unattainable with traditional methods. The expertise and skills of the applicant in the field of protocell design and light-responsive materials will be applied to the multidisciplinary and cutting-edge fields of microfluidics and synthetic biology in which the hosting groups at CNRS (under the leadership of Prof. Jean-Christophe Baret and Dr. Laurence Navailles)

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Low cost solar energy conversion to electricity'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Replacing fossil-fuels with solar energy in electric power generation is one of the most important challenges to humanity. From an economic point of view, the important parameter is the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE), or Levelized Energy Cost (LEC), which is the net present value of the unit-cost of electricity over the lifetime of an energy generating asset. The minimally expected LCOE for any solar energy system in 2030 is 0.045 [€/kWh], similar to today's Photovoltaics (PV) LCOE, and at the same level as fossil-fuels. In this proposal, we aim to demonstrate a Proof of Concept [PoC] for a low-cost CPV operating at LCOE of 0.025 [€/kWh] (50% reduction of PVs today). The proposal is a direct continuation of our ERC project on new thermodynamic ideas for solar cells, where we demonstrated that; In contrast to thermal emission, photoluminescence (PL) rate is conserved when the temperature increases, while each photon is blue-shifted (photon-energy increased). We also demonstrated how such Thermally Enhanced-PL (TEPL) generates more energetic photons, by orders of magnitude, than thermal emission at similar temperatures. These findings show that PL is an ideal optical heat pump, and can harvest thermal losses in photovoltaics with a theoretical maximal efficiency of 70%, and a practical device/solution that can reach 48% efficiency. In our preliminary unpublished work, we demonstrate 42% TEPL efficiency compared to an ideal-PV. The challenge in this PoC is to demonstrate photon recycling, photon management, and thermal management, where the maximum of the PL is converted to electricity in an operating PV. We also performed a detailed breakdown of the costs related to TEPL based device. Based on our cost analysis, achieving 32% total conversion efficiency without a co

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'TEMPERATE WELDING'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Develop a complete, highly efficient MIG-MAG welding equipment (600 A, 30 kW) with unity duty cycle factor, entirely designed to fulfill the needs in the metalmechanical sector. Additionally it offers considerable advantages in automated applications. A ground-breaking power supply technology developed by DEGIMA in collaboration with the University of Cantabria will be at the foundation of this new equipment. DEGIMA owns the European Patent of the power supply technology (EP 2 286 949 A1 /2011): Electronic system for optimizing energy transfer for welding equipment.Despite the advances in new inverter systems, current welding equipments require lots of power, overheat the workpieces and generate sparking that produce defects in the weld line. This new technology significantly reduces power use and CO2 emissions, keeps heat input to the workpieces to a minimum, provides full control of the welding parameters and avoids sparking and projections producing a weld line that is completely steady. This results in a faster welding process that yields a longer weld per unit of time and per volt-ampere used. Each one of this new welding equipment could save up to 20.000 kWh per year, which multiplied by the expected accumulated number of units sold by the 4th year yields savings reaching the 145 million kWh.With the help of this technology brought forth by DEGIMA and GALA GAR (partner and welding equipment manufacturing company), Europe can lead the third generation of welding equipment, much highly energy efficient than the previous, which will grant competitive advantages to all sectors involved into intensive welding activities. It is only a matter of time for the majority of welding equipment to be energy efficient. Reducing emissions of greenhouse gases would be awesomeOur f

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Time resolved X-ray probing of Matter under Extreme conditions' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The unique properties of a new type of X-ray source produced by a compact laser-plasma accelerator will be used to probe the ultra-fast dynamics of the electronic structure of matter under extreme conditions.The TeX-MEx project will study: 1) hot dense matter, such as that found at the centre of the Sun; 2) warm dense matter such as that found at the centre of Jupiter and 3) photo-ionized plasmas far from equilibrium such as is found in the exotic environment of an accretion disk surrounding a black hole. These extreme conditions will be created in the laboratory using 1) direct laser heating, 2) proton heating and laser driven shock heating and 3) intense X-ray pumping using the betatron source itself and the extraordinary X-ray fluxes available with a free electron laser.Using the unique combination of a few-femtosecond duration and broad spectral coverage that the X-rays produced by a laser wakefield accelerator possess, the TeX-MEx project will explore new physics in each of these regimes.  For example we will be able to directly measure the rates of ionization of hot dense matter for the first time; we will observe the onset of ion motion in warm dense matter and how this affects the electron energy levels; we will make the first observations of non-collisional photo-ionized plasmas. These will allow us to accurately test and develop models used to describe matter under extreme conditions in the laboratory and in astrophysics. This integrated program of innovative experiments and new approaches to modeling will open up a new field of femtosecond time-resolved absorption spectroscopy of matter under extreme conditions and will drastically improve our understanding of how matter behaves throughout our Universe. It will, for the first time, bring to our laboratories o

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Understanding and Predicting Impacts of Climate Extremes under Global Change' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

CLIMES advances the understanding of multisectoral impacts of climate extremes in an era of global change, and trains a cohort of climate impacts experts to enhance European resilience to future climate impacts and further Europe's capacity for research and innovation in this field. CLIMES specifically focuses on improved climate impact data compilation, innovative risk assessment and the development of climate impact forecasting. The research and training in CLIMES respond to urgent socio-economic needs. The cost of climate-related disasters is steadily increasing, as many climate extremes become more frequent and severe due to anthropogenic climate change. The European Commission recognises changes in climate extremes and their impacts as transnational problems and key challenges facing the Union. These challenges are also an opportunity: there is huge untapped potential for climate services in Europe, notably in relation to climate impacts. This potential can be realised through the training of a new generation of experts on the topic.CLIMES achieves excellence in research through an interdisciplinary approach bridging academia, the private, public and third sectors, fostering cross-pollination between research fields as diverse as climate science, urban sociology, electrical engineering, data science and epidemiology. This effort is timely, and leverages newly-developed climate datasets and Artificial Intelligence tools to open unexplored avenues in the study of impacts of climate extremes. Excellence in training leverages the breadth and depth of the CLIMES consortium, enabling CLIMES doctoral candidates to become climate impacts experts. The doctoral candidates will combine a thorough scientific understanding of impacts of climate extremes with a practical knowled

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Biocontrol of important soil dwelling pests by improving the efficacy of insect pathogenic fungi' (BIPESCO).

assistant: **Concept**

This project sets out to develop and to study environmentally friendly biological control agents which should replace or reduce the input of chemical pesticides in European agriculture, forestry and horticulture. This is in accord with the reformed common agriculture policy guidelines and is the objective of area 4 of the FAIR programme. This goal will be achieved through the use of new formulated fungal biopreparations. The fungal pesticides have to be evaluated for their environmental benefits and efficacy to demonstrate that these promising products will be an alternative to chemical insecticides. Larvae of scarab beetles and weevils feed on the roots of a wide range of economically important plants such as soft and top fruit (e.g. Vines, apples, raspberries, blackcurrants, strawberries), ornamentals (e.g. Cyclarnen, nursery stock), pasture, arable crops (e.g. Cereals, potatoes), and forest trees (e.g. Firs, Christmas trees). The estimated damage in the whole of Europe is several billion ecus. Current control measures are dependent on toxic chemical pesticides some of which are ineffective in the soil while others have or will soon be banned (e.g. Methylbromide). Fungal pathogens are endemic in pest populations and efforts are being made to develop these for pest control. There is, however, a need to develop economical methods for the production of large quantities of stable, virulent microbial pesticides, and appropriate targeting strategies to (1) maximise the impact of these agents for pest control in different soil habitats and %(2) minimise the impact on the environment. The aims ofthis project will be to (1) control scarabs and weevils with virulent, ecologically competent strains of insect-pathogenic fungi (2) improve production and formulation technologies, (

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'DNA dynamics in the unusual cell cycle of the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

This proposal promises to transform our understanding of the basic biology of the malaria parasite Plasmodium, and of how that biology affects virulence. Remarkably little is known about the Plasmodium cell cycle, despite a wealth of knowledge on the subject in model cells. This project will reveal, with unprecedented resolution, how DNA replication is organised in Plasmodium and how changing conditions in the human host and exposure to antimalarial drugs affect it. Plasmodium is an early-diverging protozoan with a complex lifecycle & unusual cell-biological features. It replicates in its human host by ‘schizogony’: a single parasite generates many nuclei via independent, asynchronous rounds of genome replication prior to cytokinesis. This occurs over ~24hrs inside infected erythrocytes. However, the genome can also be copied extremely rapidly during the sexual cycle in the malaria-transmitting mosquito. Here 8 male gametes are produced from a single gametocyte in less than 10mins, necessitating extraordinarily rapid DNA synthesis. This project will first elucidate the spatio-temporal dynamics of DNA replication in these contrasting cell cycles. To do this, I have developed a method for labelling nascent DNA replication, which was not previously possible in Plasmodium. It will permit: a) a detailed characterisation, at the whole-cell level, of the asynchronous genome replication that occurs in schizogony; b) a study of replication origin spacing & DNA synthesis speed at single-molecule resolution on DNA fibres, comparing these parameters in schizogony & gametogenesis; c) mapping sequences with replication origin activity in the Plasmodium genome; d) investigation of cell-cycle checkpoints & replicative responses to the changing environment in the human host and to antim

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Biomaterials Design through Machine Learning for Sex- and Disease-Specific Bone Regeneration' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Osteoporosis, a widespread disease that causes bone fragility, currently afflicts over 32 million Europeans, with rapidly increasingprevalence expected due to population aging. The costs of therapies for osteoporotic fragility fractures total more than 50 billion peryear in the EU. Postmenopausal females are at especially increased risk for osteoporosis, and the regenerative capacity of healthybone also differs between the biological sexes.Although biomaterials have been developed to aid bone regeneration after injury, the influence of biological sex and osteoporoticdisease have not been taken into account for such biomaterials design. Excitingly, the advent of machine learning (ML) offers thepotential to unravel the effects of sex and osteoporotic disease on biomaterials bone regenerative capacity, and to apply theseinsights to design biomaterials optimized to these characteristics.Therefore, the SeDiBone project will  for the first time  exploit ML to elucidate the influence of sex and osteoporotic disease onbone regeneration, and to translate these insights towards design of an entirely new class of biomaterials with sex and osteoporoticspecificity. By enabling automated localization of tissue defect sites and detailed tissue, cell, and interface identification, SeDiBone will deliver an Analysis Tool that efficiently and reproducibly quantifies bone regeneration outcomes in male or female and healthy or osteoporotic preclinical animal models (Aim 1). These in-depth insights will then serve as inputs for a Design Tool to determine the biomaterials designs correlating to optimal regenerative success based on sex and osteoporosis, with validation through ex vivo demonstration (Aim 2). SeDiBone will thus crucially synergize and advance efforts to design a new generation

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Patterns and management of ethnic relations in the Western Balkans and the Baltic States'.

assistant: **Concept**

‘Patterns and management of ethnic relations in the Western Balkans and the Baltic States’This study will compare the management of ethnic relations in two Western Balkan states (Serbia and Croatia) with the management of ethnic relations in two Baltic republics (Latvia and Estonia). It will concentrate on: (a) the legal and institutional infrastructures on minority rights; (b) the impact of domestic and external actors on the management of ethnic relations. This research is placed inside the framework of the EU’s enlargement. Latvia and Estonia have been EU member-states since 2004. Croatia joined the EU in 2013 whereas accession negotiations with Serbia commenced in October 2011. By conducting research on two different post-Communist settings (two post-Yugoslav and two post-Soviet states) this comparative project will provide new insights in conflict resolution and the management of ethnic relations in the new and the aspiring EU member-states.Research questions:(a) How do the Western Balkan and Baltic models for managing ethnic relations compare to each other and to European standards?(b) How does the intersection between domestic and external actors impact on the management of ethnic relations in the Western Balkans and the Baltic States?

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'CARR·e: Lightweight and versatile electric vehicle applied to urban logistics' (Carr-e) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Spirit Design has designed Carr.e, an innovative urban vehicle that exploit the technical components of e-bikes and applies them to a 4wheeler cargo so to exploit a 125,25M€ (by 2020) business opportunity. We are an internationally leading strategic design company born in 1993 in Vienna.European cities are expected to reach 75% of the total population by 2020, besides Urban Freight Transport (UFT) represents 8% to 15% of the total.  Urgent is the need of countermeasures to avoid road congestions, lower environmental pollution, from greenhouse gases (25% due to transport) to noise. Besides, e-commerce heavily relies on UFT and B2C sales are growing at a rate of 14% per year, urban logistics need to find solutions that are cost-effective, productive, efficient and environmentally sustainable. Consequently, we propose Carr·e, which exploits electric power-assisted cycles features to create a 4-wheeler, innovative pedelec (pedal electric cycle) designed for UFT that needs no driving license and no homologation. Carr.e includes a modular architecture to provide flexible driver protection in a highly space-saving way. Carr.e is designed so that batteries can be easily changed and not recharged. Carr.e is supported by the interest of main UFT stakeholders: POST AG, ÖAMTC and REWE and will be manufactured by the KSR Group. Carr·e will accumulate by 2020 a turnover of 125,25M€ and 32 new employees, ROI of 4,71%. Carr·e contributes to the EC goal for UFT of ""CO2-free city logistics in urban centres by 2030"".Carr·e has been designed to address UFT issues:•Reduction of urban environmental pollution.•Increase of the cargo companies' delivery efficiency.•An extension of B2B market applications for public administrations, SME business and corporations, tourism agencies or large-size
