user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'The role of gesture speech synchronisation in interaction and cognition' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The main objective of the proposed project is to provide a comprehensive account of gesture-speechsynchronisation in conversational interaction in order to test and extend the scope of existing theories of gesture-speech production. The current theories base their claims on the observation that gesture and speech aretemporally and semantically co-ordinated. This co-ordination is seen as a manifestation of linked cognitiveprocesses underlying speech and gesture production. However, studies conducted within these frameworkssuffer from methodological insufficiencies that call the generalisability of the temporal alignment observationsinto question. Furthermore, despite existing evidence that interactional factors influence gestural behaviour, anddespite the fact that current theories assume that gestures reflect communicative intent, the possible influence ofinteractional factors is not addressed. Given that face-to-face exchanges are the dominant mode ofcommunication, any cognitive theory of gesture-speech production that neglects this dimension is fundamentallyincomplete. The proposed project will expand existing theories in two ways. First, it will provide detailed temporaldata for speech and gesture alignment, covering a range of gesture types, thereby extending thephenomenological scope. Second, the analyses will be based on data elicited from well-controlled interactionaltasks, thereby introducing the interactional dimension of communication. Finally, it will apply a unified andsystematic quantitative analysis to the compiled corpus, introducing a new level of rigor to the field. In sum, theproject will contribute to a unified cognitive processing account of multimodal mechanisms employed in everydayconversation, thereby broadening the scope of the field of psycholin

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Targeting mechanisms of Thrombo-inflammation'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The recent Covid-19 pandemic dramatically illustrated (i) the clinical relevance of thrombo-inflammation (the interplay of coagulation and inflammation) and (ii) our limited understanding of molecular mechanisms of thrombo-inflammation. Thrombo-inflammation is a frequent disease-driving mechanism, impairing out-come of viral or bacterial infection, cardiovascular disease, cancer and other diseases. The lack of mechanistic insights hampered the development of specific therapies. My group recently discovered a new molecular link between coagulation and inflammation that addresses this enormous unmet medical need: the initiator of coagulation, tissue factor (TF, F3, CD142), forms a previously unknown heterodimer with the cytokine receptor IFNAR1 (Interferon-alpha/beta receptor alpha chain) on resting cells. In this heterodimer, TF and IFNAR1 are both inactive. Upon stimulation (e.g. fVII/fVIIa, LPS, polyIC) the heterodimer dissociates, activating TF-mediated coagulation, IFNAR1-mediated inflammation, and cellular metabolism. This provides a novel, yet simple molecular switch simultaneously controlling coagulation, inflammation, and metabolism. This switch is expected to provide a new conceptional framework for thrombo-inflammatory diseases. To enable future translation of this novel mechanism, I aim to address the following open questions (i) how is this molecular switch regulated in an organ and context specific fashion (in vitro work; cell-specific inducible TFIFNAR1 deficient mice)? (ii) what are the consequences of this molecular switch for intracellular signaling, inflammation, mitochondrial metabolism (omics with bioinformatic analyses)? and (iii) what are the molecular structures required for the TF-IFNAR1 interaction (cross-linking, crystallography, phage display,

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Transnationalizing Parliaments? Investigating the Voting Power of Europe's Arab Diasporas' (VoPAD).

assistant: **Innovation**

As some Arab states are moving towards more open political processes, diasporas have become an increasingly important electoral factor. They contribute to political discourse, and possess the capacity to inject ideas, norms and expectations informed by their host societies into the political sphere of their country of origin. In the European context, these phenomena have been elaborately discussed with respect to the Turkish diaspora among others. However, due to its relative novelty and much greater complexity, Europe’s Arab diasporas, and their ability to influence parliamentary outcomes in their states of origin has comparatively been understudied. VoPAD will fill gaps in current research by examining the influence of diasporic voting on Arab parliaments with a specific focus on the diaspora hailing from Algeria, Egypt, Lebanon, Morocco, Syria and Tunisia. This will provide new insight into Europe’s Arab diasporas’ role in the post-Arab Spring parliamentary development – and importantly, shed new light on the potential and limitations for transnational forces from Europe - in theform of external voting - to influence parliaments and parliamentary activity in Arab states.As a case- and country-based, comparative investigation, VoPAD is organised around three, interrelated objectives: (1) Mapping the design, procedures and institutional integration of diasporic voting, and how these influence parliamentary composition, and subsequent outcomes; (2) Identifying the voting preferences of the Europe-based diasporas, and whether residence (or citizenship) in Europe influences voting decisions; and (3) Investigating the competition over diasporas and their political engagement – i.e. how home-countries’ try to solicit support from diaspora communities abroad, and the respons

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'External Control of Liquid Nanofilms for Switchable Friction and Adhesion' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The overall vision of the project is to demonstrate methods for switching friction and adhesion – such as “switch off friction” or “switch on adhesion” – reversibly and with remote control. My hypothesis is that fluids confined to nanofilms between solid objects can be designed to dramatically alter their surface properties under the influence of applied fields, and so can be used to switch friction, lubrication or adhesion in a controlled and reversible way. The emphasis of the project is on creating well-defined model experiments, with high resolution in both film thickness and interaction forces, in order to reach a fundamental understanding of the new concepts and mechanisms involved. The novelty lies in both the newly-proposed mechanisms of switching friction and adhesion interactions, and the new instrumentation constructed to detect and analyse the forces. The new methodologies necessary for these pioneering experiments involve two new versions of a Surface Force Balance (SFB) providing molecular-resolution (0.1nm) control and measurement of interfacial liquid films, controlled application of electric and magnetic fields, and ultra-sensitive measurement of friction and adhesion. Notably, one of these new instruments will have macroscopic graphene electrodes for confinement of liquid nanofilms (0 – 100nm) between atomically smooth electrodes. The wide range of ‘switchable’ liquids studied will include polyelectrolytes, magnetic fluids, ionic liquids and self-assembled systems. Ultimately, this project will change the way we think about surface interactions into something we can ‘switch and control’.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Cloning of the estrogen receptor in the gilthead seabreams and expression of estrogen receptors in the brain and pituitary over the sexual cycle' (1994-1998) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Gilthead seabream, Sparus aurata, is a characteristic fish of south-atlantic and mediterranean coast of Europe and represents one of the most important species for Aquaculture in this region. As in other fish, successfull farming of sparids requires full understanding of endocrine influences on reproduction and sex reversion process, in order to either produce larvae all-year-round or to prevent undesired gonadal growth or male to female ratio. Gonadal steroid hormones, and estrogens particularly, seems to be implicated in sex differentiation and sex reversion, probably acting at the brain-pituitary levels. The proposed project is directed to obtain the molecular tools for investigating the expression of estradiol receptors in the brain and the pituitary of gilthead seabream and to determine the neuroendocrine circuits involving estradiol receptors and implicated in gonadotropin release. The results obtained will lead to a better understanding of the influence of estradiol on the process of maturation and sex reversion. Moreover, the results will provide basis to identify problems in other species and to develop methods allowing better control of spawning and sex reversion under farming conditions.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Spent batteries as a catalyst for sustainable fuels', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

To ensure the green transition, fossil fuels must be substituted, especially in the heavy transport sector. Meanwhile, power-to-gas technology is necessary to enable intermittent renewable energy storage using carbon dioxide (CO2) as feedstock to produce synthetic methane or e-gas. Despite the fact that thermal CO2 methanation is mature enough to be commercialized, designing catalysts that meet industrial requirements is still very challenging. This project mainly aims to develop catalysts from the material recovered from spent batteries. Current treatment methods for recycling cause a downgrade of the critical raw materials and additional CO2 emissions. We will study an innovative way of using the cathodic black mass obtained from the direct recycling of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) as a catalyst for CO2 methanation. Thus, this project will not only support the production of renewable fuels, but also valorize the material reuse of waste batteries. Using the synergy between the already mixed metallic materials, we can achieve an ambitious 80-90% CO2 conversion. As there are different battery chemistries (LCO, NCA, and NMC), we will study their suitability for the methanation process. After that, we will optimize the operation conditions for maximal CO2 conversion and methane selectivity using the Bayesian Optimization Structure Search methodology to enhance efficiency. We will also show the environmental footprint of the recycling process of spent LIBs by directly using cathodic black mass as a catalyst instead of using the hydrotreatment recycling process (using Life cycle assessment (LCA)). The supervisor's expertise in circularity for batteries design and LCA, combined with the researcher’s experience with the CO2 hydrogenation processes and catalyst synthesis, will

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'The Application of Private International Law in an Internet Environment' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Fifth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

As growth in electronic commerce brings new global market opportunities, new dimensions are added to legal aspects affecting both operators and consumers leading to uncertainties. In particular when making use of an inherently global network such as the Internet, the instant geographic extension of the market without the limitations of national boundaries means every single operator is de facto confronted with a multitude of differing national sets of rules and regulations to which it is bound to comply.At the Community level the European Commission is already addressing most of these questions in the single market context through a series of directives and proposals which seek to ensure the free circulation of Information Society Services within the Union. At international level the inherently global nature of electronic commerce means that it is becoming increasingly urgent to examine the implications of International Private Law and Jurisdiction in trans-border electronic commerce in a global context.The purpose of this study is:to identify the current relevant body of International Private Law and International Private Procedural Law at both international level and national level;to examine the applicability of the relevant body of law identified in step 1 to online transactions andto present certain simulations/scenarios/hypotheticals based on concrete examples.The project will also examine the economic impact of the current legal framework which applies to international electronic commerce in order to identify how the quality of the legal solutions (de lege lata - de lege ferenda) could affect the expected growth in business-to-business and business-to-consumer trans-border electronic commerce.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Animal feed certification instrument and procedure to guarantee the quality of meat and dairy products through automatic, simple and rapid DNA barcode method based on tubulin-based polymorphism (TBP)' (TBP).

assistant: **Concept**

The EU integrated approach to food safety needs effective control systems to assure safety and quality standards all along the food chain, including animal feed. This is not always straightforward, since several actors are involved in the chain, in some cases not from EU. Following regulation EC 767/2009, which has defined new “rules on the placing on the market and use of animal feed, including requirements for labelling, packaging and presentation”, a reliable and simple technical solution to measure the exact composition of compound feed for food animal is required by farmers to assure the quality of the final product (meat, milk or PDO cheese) and to certify compound feed sold, even in the form of bulk and within the same area. Presently existing analytical methods are sophisticated and not accessible to SME and small regional producers.The FEED-CODE project aims to develop a reliable, simple and cheap methodology and instrument for the fingerprinting of each individual plant species used in compound feed, through the tubulin-based polymorphism (TBP) method, which, in contrast to other PCR-based methods, does not require detailed knowledge of DNA sequences, but identifies the specie through a simple DNA barcode. This allows to quantify the presence of each individual components in complex mixtures, even in case of very small amounts (detection limit <1% weight).The tangible outcomes of FEED-CODE will be: 1. Specific probes for the identification of 30 plant species of European Catalogue of feed materials; 2. Easy to use and automatic FEED-CODE instrument for reliable and precise detection of plant species in compound mixes; 3. New standard procedure for labeling animal feed, in compliance with EC regulation and with the needs for quality and anti-fraud certification

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Reinforcement of the laboratory for environmental protection at the faculty of science of the University of Novi Sad as a centre of excellence for environmental chemistry and risk Assessment'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Radical political changes in October 2000, the election of a new Government in the beginning of 2001, and regaining full membership in the main international organizations and institutions, all mean a new beginning for Serbia. Now is the time to prepare a long-term sustainable development strategy for Serbia which will enable dynamic economic growth from which the entire population can benefit.Due to Serbia's poor economic situation in general, and the previous isolation of the country, there has been no recent investments at the University of Novi Sad (UNS) to keep laboratories up-to-date, and our researchers had virtually no chance of participating in research and development work going on within EU RTD institutions.Under this proposal, the Laboratory for Environmental Protection, an already very promising research lab at the UNS focused on environmental protection, will be reinforced through the upgrade and renewal of analytical equipment, and through the training of staff, in particular young researchers, by academic exchange visits and workshops, with the aim of creating a Centre of Excellence for Environmental Chemistry and Risk Assessment (CECRA).The program planned through this project forms a coherent set of coordination, dissemination, and development actions directly aimed at improving our RTD capacities, increasing networking with EU research institutions, and filling the gap in experience in how to manage such complex and long-term research projects such as those required to risk assess, monitor and control the variety and level of pollution in the rivers and channels of Vojvodina (North Serbia).It is hoped that once CECRA is established as a modern and capable laboratory able to and participating significantly within the European Research Area, young scien

user: Draft an impact statement for 'The causes and consequences of firms’ focus on artificial intelligence', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The European Union (EU) attaches critical importance to AI. With its new strategy, called the “European approach to AI”, the EU aims to boost investment to foster the uptake of AI by EU firms. While the potential of AI is widely acknowledged, it is not evident that the focus on AI will translate into the targeted economic benefits. To date, we lack empirical evidence about the firm-level consequences of firms’ increasing focus on AI. The reason for this lack of knowledge is a paucity of firm-level data.In this project, I contribute to our understanding of the causes and consequences of firms’ increasing focus on AI by using a large firm-level dataset. First, I use automated textual analysis to create a unique measure that captures firms’ focus on AI. The measure is based on publicly available documents and allows separating between different AI capabilities. Second, I investigate what causes firms to focus on AI. The answer to this question will be of critical importance to policymakers. It helps them to use the most effective mechanisms to increase AI uptake. Third, I investigate the effect of firms’ AI focus on (a) efficiency, (b) innovation, and (c) employment. Understanding the consequences of firms’ increasing focus on AI is crucial for policymakers. The findings of this project guide them in making efficient investments and designing policies that benefit the workforce.
