user: Explain how 'Highly Disruptive and Compact Antenna Systems for Small Satellites with Application to Surveillance, Environmental and Crop-Growth Analysis, Enabling European Union Dominance in the Space Industry' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Compact satellites are transforming space-based surveillance systems. Typical configurations include a network of small satellites that can offer increased coverage and enhanced data collection rates when compared to conventional large scale systems. Microsatellites can also drastically reduce launching costs and mission development time, thus making remote sensing technologies more cost effective. Applications include vehicle tracking, weather monitoring, maritime surveillance, crop growth analysis, and climate change observation. However, with satellite miniaturization, new design aspects arise. All satellite components have to be cleverly packaged within a small payload and materials must accommodate the harsh operating environments of space. The objective of the proposed research program is to research, design and test some new and compact antennas with integrated feed systems for such microsatellites. High levels of technical engagement are expected with satellite companies within the European Union such as the European Space Agency, Clyde Space, and PocketQube Shop. The intent of the proposed research project is to also benefit from ongoing research within the Microwave and Antenna Research Group at Heriot-Watt University. This group has a track record of developing new and innovative antenna designs, feeding systems, and filters for space technologies while also working alongside industry experts, technologists, and government scientists. Previous and current industrial partners include Airbus Defence and Space, Bell Labs Alcatel-Lucent, BSC Filters, COM DEV, Samsung, Huawei Technologies, Selex, and Thales Alenia Space. Some recent projects include planar antennas for onboard satellite antenna technologies and power amplifier design as well as compact antennas fo

user: Describe how 'GN4-1 Research and Education Networking - GÉANT' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

The overall objective is to provide a stable environment for the implementation of GÉANT as the European Communications Commons for the European Research Area, which will provide the best possible digital infrastructure to ensure that Europe remains in the forefront of research. GÉANT’s extensive and long-standing contacts with large data disciplines such as biology, radioastronomy and high-energy physics help shape the evolution of the networking facilities required. This is complemented by partner contacts with research domains that are new users of high-performance networks and services, such as: digital preservation, real-time art and humanities.The vision is to position the GÉANT partnership optimally to achieve the strategic objectives of the FPA while ensuring the continuity and improvement of the services successfully offered under the GN3plus FP7 project. The extensive experience of the GÉANT partnership in providing high-quality and innovative services has been applied to the preparation phase of this proposal. The following GN4-1 work package objectives deserve to be highlighted:•Maintain and enhance the production service and achieve cost reductions without negative effects on network service levels.•Coordinate with the other European e-infrastructure efforts both individually and in the framework of the increased coordination effort.•Prepare a new round of Open Call projects to start immediately after the end of the GN4-1 project.•Expand the footprint and the depth of services offered to roaming users with enhanced trust and identity services through Federation as a Service and with group and attribute management added to eduGAIN. •Develop online real-time services to improve the ease and function of videconferencing, open learning support and general multi

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Scheme to provide training and assistance for research players for the assessment of the fate and removal of pharmaceuticals and estrogenic compounds (pecs) released into the environment' to be submitted under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Wide variety of pharmaceuticals and estrogenic compounds (PECs) has been disposed into the environment either point or non-point sources. The proposed project TRITON is related to existing EU funded RTD project, which studies the multi-barrier approach to control the indirect and direct discharge of PECs into the water bodies. The proposed project TRITON is meant to implement the results obtained by existing EU funded RTD project by providing training for the research players in this research consortia including authorities and end-users. The training is carried out by arranging workshops and seminars as well as by Internet based distant learning methods. The areas of training cover the analysis of the occurrence and fate of PECs, environmental risk reduction technologies (water and waste water treatment and artificial ground water recharge), and environmental risk assessment and management.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Popular Nationalism and Attitudes toward Immigrants (PNATI): A Multistage Investigation of Popular Nationalism and its Effects on Attitudes toward Labor Immigrants and Asylum Seekers in Israel'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The general framework of the proposed research challenges the traditional approaches to popular attitudes toward labor immigrants and asylum seekers. Previous scholarship has highlighted either economic competition between immigrants and the host society or perceptions of symbolic threats posed by immigrants. The proposed research, in contrast, will be the first to investigate how attitudes toward foreigners are linked to the way several dimensions of nationalism configure the national self-understanding of individuals. These dimensions include the ways individuals define the criteria for membership in their nation, their beliefs about the core values of the nation, their identification with specific national institutions, and the role they believe their nation-state should play in relationship to other nation-states. To test this theoretically groundbreaking framework, the proposed research has three specific objectives: (1) to develop an empirically robust typology of national self-understanding of resident citizens of Israel, (2) to examine the relationship of national self-understanding with core demographic characteristics of individuals, and (3) to investigate how national self-understanding affects individuals' attitudes toward labor immigrants and asylum seekers. In addition to theoretical innovation, this proposal also introduces a novel multistage research design that opens with in-depth interviews, continues with survey data collection, and ends with follow-up interviews with survey takers. Using this multistage design, the proposed research will be the first of its kind to develop a purely inductive typology of popular nationalism in a European country, and to test how the national self-understanding of individuals affects their attitudes toward immigrants a

user: Explain how 'Regulation of gene therapy: a European network of users' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Development of recombinant DNA technology has induced in the public fears and speculation regarding potential risks. In fact, implementation of gene therapy involves technological approaches which might not be devoid of potential side effects (as with many conventional therapeutic means addressing severe conditions).Regulation of Gene Therapy is intended to assess for potential risks in order to restrict those; but also to delineate a margin where safety is being secured. This should contribute to better understanding and improved public acceptance. Safety and regulatory aspects of gene therapy can be envisaged along three lines: 1st/ experimental and pre-clinical research; 2nd/ Manufacturing of gene-therapy products; 3rd/ Clinical trials and development.Developments of Gene Therapy approaches requires to consider already existing regulation. This conditions further need for additional regulation. In any case, this evolving field will require adaptation to evolving knowledge. What would more specifically belong to gene therapy is the level of complexity resulting from intrication of the various critical levels of concerns; since gene therapy conjugates basic science, such as gene regulation and gene-delivery systems, with manufacture of biotech products and finally, potential evolution inside the body of a patient following therapeutic intervention.In order to harmonize positions within EEC, three Directives were adopted by the Council releasing regulation applying to the use of Genetically Modified Organisms. Difficulties have been encountered. In some countries implementation under the form of National Laws is still pending while revision of the European Directives is currently in process. Consensus seems difficult to reach: in fact, the directives are flexible enough

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Breaking frontiers for the use of plant-derived feeds in fish farming through nutritional programming of fish larvae' (FishPROG), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Sustainable expansion of European fish farming is dependent on feeds relying less on fishmeal. European researches and industry initiatives over the last decade have resulted in a significantly decrease in the share of fishmeal in fish feeds, but current replacement rates seem to be close to the physiological capacity of the different species. This project will use one of the most important cultured fish in Europe (Sparus aurata) as animal model, to look for a novel strategy for increasing the use of plant meals in aquafeeds, addressing a key question in today nutrition research: can early diet influences long-term outcome? Hence, the main objective is to assess if early manipulations in fish larva can encourage a better use of plant proteins in later life.  This issue (nutritional programming, in its wider sense) has been poorly studied in animals other than humans and mammalian models. The project will focus at four different levels: epigenetic programming, compensatory responses, microbiota changes, and growth outcome produced by early exposure to plant proteins and pro/prebiotics. The multidisciplinary nature of the project is strong, involving a combination of well developed biochemistry, molecular biology, microbiology and aquaculture. This proposal includes both the transfer of knowledge to the host institution and the training of the candidate in new advanced techniques. Results have the potential capacity to increase the competitiveness of the Mediterranean aquaculture and provide room for further studies at the fundamental and applied levels in S. aurata, and other European cultured fishes. This project is in line with the EU strategy for the sustainable development of aquaculture.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Developing expertise in pharmaceutical materials and biomaterials'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The University College Cork (UCC) hinterland is the location for the largest cluster of European pharmaceutical manufacturing, employing over 20,000 people and contributing exports of ¿34 billion annually. This position of European commercial strength is subject to intense outside competition, with governments offering favourable taxation regimes to companies establishing pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities in their countries.To maintain competitiveness, this cluster of European pharmaceutical manufacturing is broadening its operations to include process development RandD, formulation, product finishing and biotechnology-based operations. Achieving this diversification requires an extension of the skills and competencies of the workforce to include the physical characterisation and processing of pharmaceutical materials and bio-materials. In recognition of this strategically vital research and training need, UCC has established focused research programmes in- pharmaceutical crystal engineering,- functional pharmaceutical materials, and- bio-molecular formulation and bio-pharmaceutics.Under the present Transfer of Knowledge proposal, three experienced researchers would be recruited for two years each, one to each programme, to transfer essential skills and competencies on the physical characterisation and processing of pharmaceutical materials and bio-materials. In addition, two experienced researchers from UCC would be seconded for four months to the Weizmann Institute, Israel; and one would be seconded for six months to the University of Utrecht, the Netherlands.During the return phase, these researchers would transfer knowledge on crystal nucleation and biomolecule-crystal interactions (from the Weizmann Institute) and on formulation of biomolecules (from the Univ

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'A suite of software applications hosted in the cloud for medical ultrasound diagnostics' (2014-2020).

assistant: **Innovation**

Medical Ultrasound today is considered as a mainstream technology in the medical sector. It is largely associated with prenatal care to access the health of a baby in its mother’s womb but that is only a small percentage of its overall usage. Apart from Obstetrics, Medical Ultrasound is used in Cardiology, Neurology, Ophthalmology and many more clinical fields.Traditionally, ultrasound scanners where totally combined units including the ultrasound hardware, software and userinterface in one unit. Quipu is changing this model by separating the software from the hardware.Quipu introduces the concept of an app-store for ultrasound scanners. Through our system hospitals can make use of lowerto mid-range scanners to get the diagnostic functionality of high end scanners. During the last 3 years we have developed aSuite of ultrasound diagnostic applications focused in the Cardiology segment of ultrasound diagnostics. Currently thesoftware is installed on a laptop or computer and the ultrasound scanner is connected directly to the computer or laptop.The user simply launches our suite of applications, selects the diagnostic application required, starts the scan and thesoftware will automatically provide the metrics of the analysis and store the scans and results for later use. We havesuccessfully sold our software to clients in Europe, USA and Africa.During this last year we have been working on improving integration and interoperability across a wide range of ultrasoundscanners through a cloud based infrastructure. We have developed a TRL 6 prototype of Quipu Cloud based on a set ofcloud services and special hardware that works with a wide range of ultrasound scanners. Quipu Cloud improves integrationand makes it easier to share resources and data with peers. Through this PH1 w

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Fabrication of Large Loading Capacity, Stimuli-Responsive and Release-Controlled Drug Delivery Nanodevices""', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The target of the present project is to fabricate large loading capacity, stimuli-responsive drug delivery nanodevices (DDNDs) with potential application in anticancer therapy. The proposed theme is central to People Programme for Career Development framed under FP7 within a research area which is truly at the cutting-edge and which is strongly interdisciplinary (materials, chemistry and nanoengineering). The proposed work falls directly under “The European Strategy for Nanotechnology and the Nanotechnology plan”. In particular, there are two themes under this Action Plan addressed by this proposal, e.g.  Health and NMP (Nanosciences, nanotechnologies, materials and new production technologies). The proposal involves both materials preparation and drug loading/releasing processes. The DDNDs will be made in three steps. Firstly, magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) are prepared. Then a decomposable FeOOH shell will be coated on the NPs. Finally, the above core-shell structures will again be coated by a layer of mesoporous silica forming core-double shell structure. The DDNDs with increased hollow volume will be obtained by the decomposition of the FeOOH inner shell. Thereafter, the drug loading and releasing will be done in two separated steps where the release can be triggered by a stimulus input, e.g. sharp pH change. All structures/devices obtained from these steps will be thoroughly characterised. The evaluation on the delivery efficiency and improvement on the fabrication process parameters will be made according to the characterisation results. In particular, the ‘zero-release’ before the stimuli input, the load maximization per DDND and the sustainability of the release once triggered will be the main aims to be achieved in the project. As fulfilled, all pre-set tra

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Sculpting memories during sleep' (SPIN).

assistant: **Innovation**

Our ability to remember past events and experiences lies at the core of cognition and behaviour. But how do fleeting moments get converted into durable memory traces? Recent work has highlighted the pivotal role of post-learning sleep for successful memory consolidation, the process of stabilising new memories over time. However, little is known about the neurophysiological mechanisms through which the sleeping brain consolidates new memories. Not only has this left a gap in our understanding of memory formation as a whole, but also the means to modulate memories during sleep have remained underexplored. SPIN will test the exciting hypothesis that particular electrophysiological signatures of sleep, namely sleep spindles, are the mechanistic vehicle driving memory consolidation. Specifically, I hypothesise that in coordination with hippocampal reactivation events, sleep spindles are deployed to cortical learning sites where they induce lasting structural changes. Using intracranial recordings from the human hippocampus (measuring single neuron firing and associated ‘ripple’ oscillations) and from an array of cortical areas, we will first establish whether spindles are temporally aligned with hippocampal reactivation events. Next, we will use high-density scalp EEG and functional as well as structural MRI in healthy participants to test whether spindle deployment to cortical learning sites predicts structural changes in these regions. To assert causality, we will examine the effects of invasive spindle perturbation in patients on memory consolidation. Finally, we will experimentally enhance local spindles to harness their potential as a tool for boosting human memory. In sum, SPIN will use an unprecedented array of human brain recording and stimulation techniques to prov
