user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Standardisation of Ultraviolet Spectroradiometry in Preparation of a European Network' (SUSPEN) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The aim of the project is to achieve and maintain high quality standards in the spectral solar ultraviolet measurements performed in Europe, in preparation of the establishment of a European network of UV instruments. To ensure homogeneity and comparability between spectral UV measurements conducted by a continuously increasing variety and number of instruments, it is important to create close links among them and co-ordinate their operation. This can be achieved by establishing regional standards, which will be used to maintain the compatibility amongst the other instruments operating in the same region. The objective is to achieve, at the end of the project, a uniform group with the best possible geographical coverage and a large diversity of reliable instruments.The main task of the project is to organise an intercomparison campaign, through which the performance of the  twenty participating instruments will be tested and evaluated. About half of the instruments that will take part  in the campaign belong to the contractors of SUSPEN, while the rest will be invited participants, either from  Europe or from other countries. The selection criteria will ensure large diversity of instruments, wide  geographical coverage and their potential to act in the future as regional standards in national or international  UV monitoring networks.  The campaign will comprise two phases: During the first phase, a blind intercomparison will be performed by  all instruments for at least two full days. During the instrument's set-up each participant will use its own means  to calibrate and operate its spectroradiometer, without exchanging data with other participants. The aim of this  first phase is to evaluate the performance of the instruments, as they would operate independently at th

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Hormone-microbiome interactions as a key-player in female health' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

Incidence rates of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases are increasing dramatically and a clear sex bias exists in disease presentation and progression. While the underlying reasons are largely unknown, hormones are hypothesized to play a central role in these discrepancies and the microbiome is linked to disease pathology. However, a key understudied player is the interplay between hormones and the microbiome in human health.Crucially, hormone-microbiome interactions in the human body are poorly understood. Microbes produce hormone-like signals and play a role in hormone metabolism and regulation, while hormones influence bacterial growth. It is currently unknown how the menstrual cycle impacts the microbiome and how disruptions of this natural cycle impact female health. I have identified unique fluctuations in microbial diversity in healthy women that are absent in men and altered in women on hormonal contraceptives. There is a lack of medical research focusing on female physiology, particularly investigating endocrinological changes and disruptions. Understanding the consequences of endocrine-related disruptions and how hormone-microbiome interactions contribute to them is a fundamental step towards precision medicine that will benefit both women and men.Therefore, I will systematically investigate hormone-microbiome interactions in (1) healthy women on and off hormonal contraceptives, (2) women at menopause and (3) infertile women receiving fertility treatment. I will integrate clinical data with state-of-the-art multi-omics profiles using computational approaches and I will combine these with mechanistic validation using bacterial strains isolated from the female subjects. At the end of my project, we will know how exogenous and endogenous hormones interact with t

user: Describe how 'Coupled multi-scale modelling of mechanical degradation and transport phenomena in damaging multi-phase geomaterials for environmental applications' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The objective of the project is to develop and apply multi-scale modelling techniques for multi-physical processes in multi-phase geomaterials for the identification of evolving macroscopic properties due to their mechanical degradation (rocks, geomaterials). Multi-scale modelling of mechanical damage is the field of expertise of the applicant. The proposed work will focus on fluid transport through porous materials with evolving damage and damage-induced permeability evolution.Geomechanics problems require the use of computational tools to guide engineers in developing solutions, resulting in models that have produced more realistic solutions. However, various issues hinder their use, including the experimental identification of the complex material parameters needed to utilize them. Geomaterials are subjected to various stimuli corresponding to different, yet coupled, physical phenomena, such as mechanical degradation, fluid transport, thermal or chemical effects. This requires identifying behavioural parameters and laws for all these processes as well as their interactions.The expertise in coupled phenomena available at McGill University (Prof. Selvadurai) will be used in conjunction with multi-scale computational modelling tools to examine damage evolution relevant to large scale problems in environmental geomechanics and structural materials. By combining different physical phenomena using tools capable of modelling complex geomechanical problems with environmental impacts, the project will be multidisciplinary.The long term developments targeted by the project are firmly founded on advances in computational modelling, with long term applications to environmental geosciences issues relevant, for instance, to deep geological storage of nuclear waste, CO2 sequestrati

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Structure and dynamics of water and ions in smectite' (SMECTI-SCALE) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Smectite is a clay mineral that occurs in multiple surface environments, both terrestrial and marine, frequently as one of their main mineral components. It has the unique property of admitting inorganic and organic species as well as water in its interlayer space. Smectite expandability and large surface area make it a main control of the physical and chemical behaviour of the environments where it is found.The present study aims at investigating the structure of smectite from molecular scale to the micro meter scale by coupling different techniques (experimental and numerical) in order to describe precisely the geometry of the system and to define the localisation and the organisation of water molecules and ions. In parallel, a dynamical study will be done to determine the diffusion rate of ions and water molecules in the system. This coupled study will be used to determine the main parameters controlling the diffusion of ions and water in smectite and will provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of ions and pollutants migration in soil.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Oxidation via low-energy electron transfer. Development of green oxidation methodology via a biomimetic approach'.

assistant: **Concept**

Oxidation reactions are of fundamental importance in Nature and are key transformation in organic synthesis. There is currently a need from society to replace waste-producing expensive oxidants by environmentally benign oxidants in industrial oxidation reactions. The aim with the proposed research is to develop novel green oxidation methodology that also involves hydrogen transfer reactions. In the oxidation reactions the goal is to use molecular oxygen (air) or hydrogen peroxide as the oxidants. In the present project new catalytic oxidations via low-energy electron transfer will be developed. The catalytic reactions obtained can be used for racemization of alcohols and amines and for oxygen- and hydrogen peroxide-driven oxidations of various substrates. Examples of some reactions that will be studied are oxidative palladium-catalyzed C-C bond formation and metal-catalyzed C-H oxidation including dehydrogenation reactions with iron and ruthenium. Coupled catalytic systems where electron transfer mediators (ETMs) facilitate electron transfer from the reduced catalyst to molecular oxygen (hydrogen peroxide) will be studied. Highly efficient reoxidation systems will be designed by covalently linking two electron transfer mediators (ETMs). The intramolecular electron transfer in these hybrid ETM catalysts will significantly increase the rate of oxidation reactions. The research will lead to development of more efficient reoxidation systems based on molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, as well as more versatile racemization catalysts for alcohols and amines.

user: Explain how 'Biocompatible polymer fibre temperature monitoring of therapeutic hypothermia in spinal cord injuries' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

BioPHIX aims to advance spinal cord injury (SCI) treatment, making the development of precise, biocompatible, and reliable temperature monitoring solutions a significant step forward in optimizing therapeutic hypothermia protocols. BioPHIX will design a novel polymer fibre temperature sensor capable for immediate implantation within the patient for prolonged observation of the patients physiological responses, during therapeutic hypothermia in SCIs, both during and post operation. This device will address one of the most vital shortcomings of the current temperature sensors; the ability to remain for an extended duration within the patient by minimizing the effect of a foreign body reaction response (FBR). The biocompatible polymer sensing device will achieve just that, while, at the same time augmenting the performance of the current state-of-the-art by combining the benefits of unique polymer materials with femtosecond lasers to facilitate the unique sensing structure.

user: Describe how 'Molecular Bioenergetics of Cyanobacteria' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Cyanobacteria are major constituents of fresh-water and marine ecosystems. Study of these organisms relates to environmental concern on the one hand, and to usefulness as elegant model organisms for exploring the structure and function of bioenergetic protein complexes, regulation of gene expression and stress responses on the other hand. Cyanobacteria are major producers not only of fixed carbon, but also of biologically available nitrogen in the ocean. In addition, some species produce toxins that affect water quality. Thus, understanding the complex series of events involved in light perception, light energy utilisation, gene regulation in response to environmental stimuli as well as identification of the factors which determine the production, blooming and stress sensitivity of cyanobacteria is a very important scientific, ecological and economical issue.The objective of our conference project is to provide a European platform for dissemination of the newest results, to exchange ideas and develop multidisciplinary collaborative research projects, and training young scientists in molecular bioenergetics of cyanobacteria. Based on the outstanding progress in the field, the first meeting will concentrate on new developments in light perception, signal transduction and light energy utilisation in cyanobacteria. The main focus of the second meeting will be the functional genomic, metabolomic, proteomic and structural aspects of bioenergetic proteins.Due to the importance of cyanobacteria as model systems as well as their role in natural ecosystems their study is in the crossroad of interest of research groups with very different scientific and methodological background. Therefore, the proposed meetings will serve as melting pots for developing new ideas and identifying n

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Economics of climate change adaptation in Europe' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The aim of the ECONADAPT project is to provide user-orientated methodologies and evidence relating to economic appraisal criteria to inform the choice of adaptation actions using analysis that incorporates cross-scale governance under conditions of uncertainty. A critical theme of the proposal is therefore to support the application of adaptation economics in the period following the publication of the EU’s 2013 Adaptation Strategy, focusing on key decision areas that need enhanced economic information, and on the key users of such information. Key decision areas include: management of extreme weather events modified by climate change that have high impact costs in the short term; appraisal of projects where the costs of climate risks are borne over long time periods; appraisal of flows of large-scale EU funds where the case for climate resilience needs to be made; macro-economic effects of climate change risks and adaptation strategies at Member State and EU levels, and; appraisal of overseas development assistance aimed at reducing the damage costs of climate risks in less developed countries. The project will work intensively with stakeholders from e.g. relevant DGs, Member States, Regional or local policy makers, and seek to learn from, and inform, experience. The methods and approaches will be co-developed with the diverse user groups engaged in using economic data within adaptation decision making. A two-tier approach is proposed to provide detailed guidance and empirical data: first, to other economists or private sector organisations with adaptation needs, and second, to other users who may want to use ‘light-touch’ methods, with the empirical data to help in scoping decision making outcomes. A strong link will be made with the European Climate Adaptation Platfo

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Vision and Roadmap for European Raw Materials'.

assistant: **Objectives**

VERAM aims to provide an umbrella and coordination function for the raw materials related research and innovation activities across the relevant ETPs and their national technology platforms (while maintaining the flexibility and individual visions of each ETP network) as well as related other stakeholders across the raw materials value chain in order to increase synergies and facilitate uptake of research results and innovation across the sectors and their value chains.The project will encourage capacity building as well as transfer of knowledge and innovation capability. It will coordinate the network of people involved in the different Horizon 2020 and other projects and initiatives and will provide a platform for identifying gaps and complementarities and bridge these. We will also advise the European Commission and national governments of future research needs and tools to stimulate innovation and assist in overcoming the fragmentation in the implementation of the EIP on RM SIP. We will look for mutually beneficial information exchange, encourage cross-fertilization between actions undertaken by different raw material industries and will speed-up exploitation of breakthrough innovations. The final result of the activities will be a common long term 2050 vision and roadmap for the relevant raw materials, including metals, industrial minerals and aggregates and wood.The following main deliverables are foreseen as major project results:•Deliver a mapping of on-going initiatives in the field of raw materials at the EU and Member States level as well as regional and local levels, both from the R&I and policy side. The mapping will also consider other international initiatives. •Propose a 2050 roadmap/research agenda for raw materials in coordination and cooperation with

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'New Active Recyclable Packaging with Natural Antioxidising for the extension of the fresh food shelf live' (FRESHFILM) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

FRESHFILM will create a highly-functional film food packaging, that will strongly serve two main end-user communities: Food Processing Industry & Plastic Packaging Industry (meat processing vs. fresh food processing). These are mature sectors which create annual revenues in Europe in €147 billion and €12 billion respectively and require continues innovation to differentiate in a strong-competition market and to attend a consumer demand with increasing level of quality exigency.  FreshFilm will solve the main concerns regarding flexible packaging market: product time life, plastic weight and multilayer recycling by extending fresh-food life time, reducing the weight of packaging and enabling recovery, recycling or reusing of the materials in the packaging.  The New Approach of the Directive on Packaging and Packaging Waste (EU/94/62) has set new targets for the European flexible supplier chain. Directive 94/62 requires reducing the weight of packaging and enabling recovery, recycling or reusing of the materials in the packaging.  This project will develop an innovative recycling food packaging material for meat mainly and also for vegetables, salads and pasta, with oxygen scavenger properties to enable a slowing of the oxidization process within the food being stored by creating an oxygen poor atmosphere and effectively acting as an anti-oxidant.  The natural oxygen scavenging compounds, which act as antioxidants, will be blended as extracts from natural herbs such as garlic, onion, cinnamon, cloves, thyme, and sage.   Contrasting current barrier layers that prevent ingress of oxygen to manage down the oxygen content of the pack interior, the developed film will be entirely recycled at end-of- life. The science and technology required to do this will be challenging, yet
