user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Inorganic Nanoparticles in Archaean Carbonaceous Matter - a key to early life and palaeoenvironmental reconstructions' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Earth is a dynamic system influenced by the interactions between life and physical environments at all scales of space and time. Though our planet is ~4.6 Gyr old, we don’t know yet when and in which environmental conditions it first became home to life. The early rocks hold the answers to these questions, but in a scattered and fragmentary manner with traces of life often being highly altered.This project could provide a substantial contribution to the understanding of early life on Earth: Inorganic Nanoparticles (IN) in Archaean (A) Carbonaceous Matter (CMa) will be investigated to decipher crucial aspects of early life framed in its environmental context.IN are naturally formed and removed from the environment by various chemical and biological processes. Relationships between microorganisms and adsorption of specific IN, and physico-chemical parameters have been observed in natural environments. Therefore, IN have a great potential as a biosignature and paleoenvironmental proxy when associated to fossil objects. Archaean cherts of Barberton greenstone belt (South Africa) contain the oldest known traces of fossil life in a well-preserved geological context. Micro-/nano-scale investigations of the nature and distribution of CMa and related IN in these primitive cherts by using a combination of high resolution microscopy techniques, will allow to:• evaluate the composition and texture of carbonaceous chert, and identify the nature of the CMa and its IN;• establish a relationship between IN content and specific types of CMa;• explore their roles in the Archaean bio-geochemical processes, and their potential as biosignatures.This project combines the experience of the applicant in biosignatures, her expertise in microscopy, and a network of internationally reputed scient

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'A systems biology approach to dissect cilia function and its disruption in human genetic disease' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

AIM: To identify the molecular mechanisms characterizing cilium function, and the discrete perturbations associated with dysfunction caused by mutations in inherited ciliopathies, applying a systems biology approach. BACKGROUND: Cilia are microtubule-based, centriole-derived projections from the cell surface. They transduce extracellular signals and regulate key processes in which signals of the extracellular environment are translated into a cellular response, such as cell cycle control, Wnt signalling, Shh signalling and planar cell polarity. Disruption of cilium-based processes by mutations can cause very severe disorders. Many of these ciliopathies have overlapping phenotypes. There is evidence, that ciliary proteins are organized in cell/context specific complexes and/or in shared regulatory circuits in cilia of affected tissues. Yet, knowledge of the composition, wiring, dynamics and associated signaling pathways of the corresponding molecular building blocks and associated protein networks remains very limited. APPROACH: We propose here that ciliopathies can be considered systemically as specific perturbations in a versatile dynamically regulated multifunctional molecular machine. Mainly based on the comprehensive description of the ciliary interactome, quantitative functional assays as well as human genetic data derived from ciliopathy patients, we will generate a comprehensive stream of content-rich quantitative data towards systemic analysis of ciliar function. These data will be used to generate and validate discrete models that describe functional modules and regulatory circuits in the ciliome as well as predicting biological context specific features of cilia as well as perturbations leading to ciliopathies. This will enable us to 1) understand the systemic

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'MOlecular Quantum Simulations'.

assistant: **Concept**

The European Training Network (ETN) ""MOQS - Molecular Quantum Simulations"" provides an international, interdisciplinary and intersectoral doctoral training of 15 early-stage researchers. The consortium of 8 academic, 2 non-academic beneficiaries, and 4 partner organisations has the expertise to prepare ESRs in the multiple disciplines required for the emerging field of quantum simulations of molecular structure and dynamics, at the crossroad of chemistry, solid-state and quantum optical physics, computer science, quantum information and quantum control. These are required for a large variety of possible industrial (e.g. catalysis-on-demand and drug design) as well as scientific (e.g., fully ab-initio and complete quantum mechanical description of complex molecular reactions) applications, requiring new scientific insight, new cross- disciplinary training courses and future experts. Thus MOQS’s research and training network will (i) address the need for a boost in quantum technologies through research on quantum simulations of molecular structure and dynamics, with potential mid-term impact on the chemical and pharmaceutical industries (ii) educate and train the future generation of quantum scientists specifically qualified in the application of quantum physics to technological and industrial needs. Its results will be widely communicated towards the scientific and non-scientific audience. MOQS has built-in mechanisms for shaping the future of doctoral training in quantum science.""

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Simulation-Integrated Design and Development of 3D-Printed Shape Memory Polymer-Based Dynamic Electromagnetic Interference Shields' (Sim3D-DynaShield) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding is the mitigation of unwanted electromagnetic (EM) radiation, which hinders the smooth operation of electronic systems. Over time, EMI shielding research has advanced from static to smart shielding, where the shields dynamically respond to external stimuli (pressure, temperature, etc), providing real-time protection. However, existing research on smart/dynamic EMI shielding materials faces challenges in precision, sustainability, and integration, limiting their real-world applications. Current solutions often rely on porous petroleum-based materials such as polyurethane polymers, which lack microstructure control and require constant exposure to stimuli to maintain the ON/OFF state. Further, the high resource requirements and lack of pre-fabrication optimization in current research demand innovation. This proposal aims to address these challenges by leveraging simulation-integrated 3D printing techniques to design and develop various microlattice mesh structures based on sustainable polycaprolactone shape memory polymer integrated with conducting and magnetic nanoparticles for enhanced smart shielding ability. This pioneering and innovative approach of combining mechanical, thermal and EM simulation with 3D printing allows visualization, designing and meticulous analysis before fabrication, enabling real-time assessment of material responses under various stimuli and the creation of complex geometries with precision. In this proposal, a smart shield integrated prototype system for real world applications will be developed, addressing the crucial research gap associated with realizing device-integrable smart shields in a resource-efficient and sustainable manner.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Identification of potential prion proteins in plants' (GWJ-NUI-MAY).

assistant: **Concept**

This proposal seeks to identify potential prion proteins within the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana.The term prion was first used to describe the infectious agent causing scrapie, a transmissiblespongiform encephalopathy (TSE) disease, in sheep. Since the n TSE's have been identified in cattle (BSE) and an association between BSE and a variant of a human TSE, Cruetzfeld-Jakob disease (CJD),have been established. The identification of prion-like proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae has opened up a new era in t he study of prion proteins.As well as redefining the term prion to encompass an array of proteins that can behave in an infectious manner, the discovery of prions in yeast allows detailed genetic analysis to be carried out on factors affecting prion stability and propagation using well-established yeast genetic techniques. Furthermore, studies of yeast prions suggest that the prion phenomena may well be widespread throughout nature and that prions have the ability to carry out normal cellular functions. Prionisation domains have been identified and have been shown to be transferable. Using bio-informatics techniques a number of plant proteins that contain putative prion domains have identified. The experimental approach to be taken in this proposal is to transfer these potential plant prion domains and fuse them with green fluorescent protein (GFP) and also use them to replace the prion domain of the known yeast prion protein Sup35. Prions in yeast form aggregates.We will therefore monitor the aggregation state of GF P in the constructs and observe if they behave like known yeast prions. We will also carry out detailed yeast genetics to investigate whether the plant prion domains can substitute for the natural prion domain of the Sup35 protein. In addition, we wil

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'MOnitoring the yard in CONtainer TermInals - TrIals' in the context of a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

MOCONT-II is a complete set of field trials performing on the basis of the results of a previous IST project named MOCONT (IST-1999-10057). MOCONT is a system that automatically tracks the containers inside a terminal from the reception to the delivery at the gate. Its main capabilities are the automatic identification of the container code and its location on the terminal yard, communicating that information to the Terminal Operating System. Starting from the first MOCONT prototype, MOCONT-II equips a fleet of 8 reach stackers with MOCONT technology and performs six months of tests in a container terminal in order to verify and evaluate the system. Therefore, the main objective of MOCONT-II is to verify the manifold impacts that MOCONT system has on the operation of a terminal container. Expected results are the analysis of impacts in terms of the average container handling time, terminal productivity, return of investment, working conditions, level of service and cost reduction.Objectives:The objective of MOCONT-II is to verify the impacts MOCONT has on the operation of a container terminal. The specific target is to investigate the potential of MOCONT leading to a marketable industrial product. From an economic and financial point of view, the aim is to estimate the return of investment a terminal operator may have using MOCONT, together with the business opportunities for the supplier. Economic and financial analysis will be the key to show the benefits of the technology application. MOCONT-II will realise 8 replications of the MOCONT functional prototype in order to equip a fleet of reach stackers. The fleet will operate for a period lasting 6 months and relevant data will be collected for off-line evaluation. The analysis will allow a thorough evaluation, ranging

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Products of coated textiles' (PROCOTEX) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

In our world today we require the ability deal fairly with global challenges. This can be achieved by opening up of research systems and a free movement of researchers and technologies to accelerate collaboration and to build up strong partnerships. These requirements are also the aim of the 2 years lasting PROCOTEX project. By building up and strengthening an international research network in smart textiles, innovative products based on the consortium´s common technology platform will be developed. Above that PROCOTEX targets on the valorization of these products. Within the consortium, which is made up by 3 partners coming from Belgium, Greece and South Africa, different surface modification technologies as well as expertise in electrospinning are available. These technologies will be spread among the partners by defining 3 different teams of researchers. Each team consists of 4 researchers, 2 being from South Africa, 2 being from the European countries. The available technologies build the basis for the development of 3 prototype products, on each one a team will focus: (1) textile fibre with transistor properties as on-off switch for textile sensors (2) sensor for nitric oxide (NO) detection (3) air filter for dedicated filtration of NOx. In order to be successful the work plan foresees a coherent set of actions within the different workpackages which is mutually transferred by research trainings, courses and workshops. Knowledge and research skills available within the consortium are complimentary and ensure the contribution of each partner to the joint development of the products.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'TECHNICAL IMPROVEMENT OF THE WATER TREATMENT UNIT IN CLOSED FISH FARMS' (MARI-TECH) under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

In Europe the future expansion of aquaculture is widely believed to be through land based recycling systems with minimal environmental impact. The global goal of this project was to bring together into one dynamic European network, fish farmers, technology providers, RTD institutes, and companies, with the main focus on water treatment. The network should be able to offer systems tailored to customers' needs all over Europe, in association with equipment manufacturers. Contacts were made between end-users, technical providers and these bodies agreed on the necessity to utilise different pilot production scale farms as a tool to verify recent technical improvements they have made in water treatment. These technical solutions from different fields will be adapted to make an integrated recycling system for the rearing of marine species. Even if Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) is the farmed species at both end-user sites, the project is species- and region independent.The overall aim of this project was to improve and validate in full scale the use of innovative technologies for treating sea water, thus validating the concept of a closed circuit system to marine aquaculture. It focused on technical, environmental and economical aspects in land based aquaculture. The project aimed to meet the following targets:1) Reducing investment costs:- Use of more cost-effective new technologies- Precise design and proper sizing for equipment2) Increasing productivity and controlling inputs in the system- Minimal use of natural resources (energy, new sea water)- Maximum fish production per unit food used.- Optimal fish performances by improved hydrodynamics in rearing tanks3) Reducing risk factors and developing innovative management methods:- Strict control of pathogens- Computerised m

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'High quality Material and intrinsic Properties of InN and indium rich Nitride Alloys - (The RAINBOW ITN)' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Indium nitride is a new narrow gap semiconductor (<0.7 eV), which alloys with GaN (3.5 eV) and AlN (6.2 eV) will allow the spectral range from telecom to hard UV wavelengths to be covered. This narrow band gap makes InN an exciting material from which to develop highest efficiency solar cells. Moreover, due to an electron mobility of around 4000 cm2/Vs and very high saturation velocities, InN is an ideal material for the development of high electron mobility devices capable of operating in the Terahertz range. To ensure the production of reliable commercial devices, rigorous fundamental research is required to understand the layer growth mechanisms and optimize material properties.  In RAINBOW, academic and industrial consortium, the theoretical work will encompass modelling of the atomic structure and properties of the material from empirical potentials to ab initio techniques. Experiments will provide correlated structural, electronic, optical and chemical information from the nano to the macroscopic scale. In a closely concerted effort, we will determine the best conditions for the growth of highest quality InN and In rich (In,Ga,Al)N alloys by the main growth techniques (MOVPE, PAMBE,HVPE ). Under the supervision of world leading experts, numerous young researchers will directly benefit from this interdisciplinary and multisectorial research and training effort. The young researchers involved in this programme will also learn to manage research and industrial projects.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Mechanisms of hygiene-mediated immune dysregulation and impact on the susceptibility to allergic and autoimmune diseases' (HYGIENEANDIMMUNITY).

assistant: **Innovation**

Immune-mediated disorders such as allergy and autoimmunity are major public health problems. In the past 40 years the incidence of these diseases has risen dramatically in developed countries. Epidemiological studies have revealed a clear correlation between disease susceptibility and improvements in hygiene. For example, children with older siblings show a reduced prevalence of asthma, multiple sclerosis (MS), and Type 1 diabetes (T1D), and infants (<1year) that attend daycare centers show reduced incidence of atopic dermatitis and asthma. Whilst there is a clear genetic component to each of these diseases, development is a result of a complex interplay between genes, environment, and the immune system. Therefore, in genetically stable populations changes in the environment, which impact on immune development and regulation, must account for the observed increase in disease susceptibility. The “Hygiene Hypothesis” originally proposed that the increased incidence of allergic disease was due to decreased microbial exposure early in life, particularly during early childhood as the immune system develops. However, the immune mechanisms underlying the hygiene hypothesis remain elusive and our understanding of how hygiene, pathogen exposure, and environmental bacterial diversity might lower the susceptibility to allergy and autoimmunity is extremely limited. This research project will make use of state-of-the-art germ-free and gnotobiotic (controlled microbial status) animal models to elucidate the precise immunological mechanisms that are affected by decreased microbial exposure. Understanding the way in which environmental microbes influence immune development and regulation will lay the groundwork for treatment regimes aimed at reducing the rise in allergic and autoimmune
