user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Synthetic Oligonucleotide Quality Control Software' (SOLQC).

assistant: **Innovation**

DNA synthesis technology has greatly developed over recent years, serving a growing multi-billion synthetic DNA market. Synthetic DNA is used in projects that optimize reagents, chemicals, crops and other organisms, in projects seeking to increase the manufacturing efficiency for the above, as well as in studies of molecular regulation and other cellular processes. The latter is the focus of the MRG-GRammar H2020 FET project.As the market and application range for synthetic DNA expand a need arises to test and quality control raw synthetic nucleic acids as well as products built upon such reagents. We have developed a prototype software tool for assessing quality parameters in synthetic DNA libraries and used it in several projects in the framework of MRG-GRammarWe propose to productize this prototype into a stable version that will be availed to a broader synthetic biology community. Our proposed product, SOLQC, is a software system that enables management, control and feedback in projects based on synthetic DNA and its applications.Requested funding will be used to improve usability and user interface, to expand the implementation of analysis and statistical tools, to produce a stable version available to the scientific community and to commercial entities and, finally, to investigate potential sustainable mechanisms for supporting continued service, including commercial or service models

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Hair follicle stem cells as target of carcinogenic papillomaviruses' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The target cells of the carcinogenic cottontail rabbit papillomavirus (CRPV) are located in regions of the pelage hair follicles that contain most of the keratinocyte colony-forming cells (K-CFCs). This population of cells contains epithelial stem cells and is highly permissive for the expression of the viral oncogenes E6, E7. These results arise important questions: What is the relationship between stem cells and papillomaviruses (PV)? Do stem cells have a specific receptor for papillomaviruses or do they provide a unique transcription machinery for PV gene expression? We propose to study the early steps of CRPV infection. Pelage hair follicles from New Zealand White rabbits will be microdissected and then put in contact with CRPV virions or with labelled CRPV-like particles. These experiments should permit to determine if CRPV infection is targeted specifically to follicular stem cells and they should contribute thus to a better understanding of PV infection.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'A cost-effective process for methanisation of unexploited agricultural waste.' (DualMetha) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Context Biogas production level in the EU has grown considerably in the past ten years to over 16 Mtoe, with optimistic forecasts predicting that by 2030 Europe will produce over 40 Mtoe.   Problem The production of biomethane from organic waste matter faces a series of practical problems which are holding back its growth: - Cannot treat all wastes. Straw waste represents a massive biogas potential, but less than 5% is currently used for Biogas production. - Foreign objects often enter into the system, causing damage and increasing maintenace costs - Have high energy costs  - Require several treatment stages, which increase the CAPEX and OPEX. Solution – the DualMetha Plant We have developed and patented a simplified, biomethane production process that: • cuts down some of the waste pre-treatment stages,  • allows for the methanation of all types of biomass including straw,  • does not break when foreign objects are introduced  • and has low OPEX (50% less in maintenance, wear, repairs, electricity costs). DualMetha represents the opportunity to turn unexploited organic waste into biogas.  The aim of the phase 1 project is to improve our understanding of the EU market for Biogas, identifying regional market variations in terms of purchase decision makers, appropriate business models, pricing structure and identifying which are the most attractive markets for us to use as a beachhead. We estimate that, only considering crop residual waste (straw) that DualMetha plants could supply 80Mtoe. We aim to install 75 plants by 2025.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Reconstructing Earth’s mantle convection' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Knowledge of the state of the Earth mantle and its temporal evolution is fundamental to a variety of disciplines in Earth Sciences, from the internal dynamics to its many expressions in the geological record (postglacial rebound, sea level change, ore deposit, tectonics or geomagnetic reversals). Mantle convection theory is the centerpiece to unravel the present and past state of the mantle. For the past 40 years considerable efforts have been made to improve the quality of numerical models of mantle convection. However, they are still sparsely used to estimate the convective history of the solid Earth, in comparison to ocean or atmospheric models for weather and climate prediction. The main shortcoming is their inability to successfully produce Earth-like seafloor spreading and continental drift self-consistently. Recent convection models have begun to successfully predict these processes (Coltice et al., Science 336, 335-33, 2012). Such breakthrough opens the opportunity to combine high-level data assimilation methodologies and convection models together with advanced tectonic datasets to retrieve Earth's mantle history. The scope of this project is to produce a new generation of tectonic and convection reconstructions, which are key to improve our understanding and knowledge of the evolution of the solid Earth. The development of sustainable high performance numerical models will set new standards for geodynamic data assimilation. The outcome of the AUGURY project will be a new generation of models crucial to a wide variety of disciplines.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Multi-Functional Flexible High Temperature Superconducting Tape'.

assistant: **Concept**

Numerous interesting applications of High Temperature Superconductors (HTSC) such as motors, levitated trains, power transmission lines, magnetic and electromagnetic screening, power storage facilities, MRI, nuclear fusion reactors are generally recognized on the condition that these new materials will have to be processed in long lengths of practical conductors. This consortium has a clear industrial objective: The development of a cost effective multi functional flexible HTSC tape (MUST) exhibiting an overall critical current density Jc > 106 A/cm2 at 77K and B=OT, using high power sputter deposition of 0,5 lmm thick YBa2Cu307 films on metallic and polymer substrates. The end product is specifically designed to withstand stresses related to handling and operative use while maintaining the desired characteristics in the superconducting state. The commercial possibilities of this end product will be demonstrated by using the flexible superconducting tape for the fabrication of components suitable for new MRI applications, fault current limiters and to wind a high field HTSC magnet (B>2T). The American and Japanese competition is strong and has mainly centered its government supported activities on Ion Beam Assisted Deposition using Laser Ablation. A European effort has approached the problem from the side of MOCVD and the more classical Powder in Tube techniques. In spite of all this expertise, we feel the need to address the issue of flexibility, high current capability and up scaling from a new angle. By combining the unique talents of 6 European Industries (large ones as well as SME's) with 4 academic research institutions we claim to establish the following innovations crucial to the new technology:  textured metal foils,  large scale magnetron sputter deposition be

user: Describe how 'SME's Training and Hands-on in Optical Design and Simulation' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Optical Design and Simulation have a tremendous potential to facilitate disruptive research and product innovation. Since optical systems are key components in a broad range of modern devices, optical design plays an essential role in the technology of the XXI-st century. To support European small and medium enterprises in gaining and keeping a leading position in optics and photonics, we propose the support action called ?SME?s Training and Hands-on Practice in Optical Design and Simulation? (SMETHODS). The European consortium offering SMETHODS consists of 7 partners that are the most prominent academic institutions in optics in their countries. Through fully integrated collaborative training sessions, the consortium will provide professional assistance as well as hands-on training in a variety of design tasks on imaging optics, non-imaging optics, wave optics and diffraction optics. For each of these four training domains, 5-day training sessions will be given by several instructors from the consortium partners and by external speakers from industry. Nowadays there exists a strong demand for this kind of support action. Large companies have the resources to organize the necessary training courses internally, but SME?s lack such abilities. In the absence of systematic trainings such as SMETHODS, SME engineers often have to improve their professional abilities with less efficient autodidactic means. This training, which is unique in Europe, will fill the gap between academic courses given at universities and training activities provided by software producers that are focused on specific design software. In the first phase, SMETHODS will provide support activities to SMEs, researchers and companies during 30 months of EC financial support. During this period SMETHODS wil

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'HOW DO SEASONAL CYCLES SHAPE LIFE CYCLES? A UNIFYING FRAMEWORK TO UNDERSTAND VARIATIONS ACROSS THE GLOBE AND PREDICT SHIFTS IN A CHANGING WORLD'.

assistant: **Concept**

Seasonal fluctuations occur throughout the planet. Ecosystems and humans alike exhibit and depend crucially on species' phenology, the timing of seasonal biological activity. Climate change has been distorting the length of the warm ‘growing’ season (i.e. summer) around the world. The resulting 'phenological shifts' comprise the most dramatic and well-documented symptom of climate change. However, phenological research has focused on idiosyncratic case studies of shifts with proximate explanations. A unifying framework that ties together the disparate body of evidence with ecological and evolutionary principles has been lacking, making it difficult to understand the source of variations and forecast continued phenological shifts. CyclesOfLife will establish such a framework and make timely use of big data to test the framework at an ambitious, global scale. I will build the theoretical backbone based on a novel approach I developed recently, which leverages quantitative tools from life-history theory and evolutionary demography to calculate natural selection dynamics of phenological traits in cyclically fluctuating environments. Armed with the theoretical framework, I will utilize the gradient of growing season lengths that exists across the planet's latitudes as a 'natural experiment' to test the relationship between season length and phenology. I will analyze demographic and phenological big data now available openly online to inform, test, and refine this theoretical relationship. Lastly, with deepened understanding of how growing season length around the world shapes phenology, I will make predictions of how phenology might continue to change in the future under different climate change scenarios. Beyond meeting the research objectives, the fellowship will enable my

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Managing forage fisheries and marine predators to maximise conservation gains' (MANMAX) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Global fisheries catch ~100 million tonnes annually and this is set to increase. This harvest is driving extinctions and altering marine ecosystems. Fisheries targeting forage fish (small, schooling fish) have the capacity to alter prey availability for marine predators, but whether this is the case or not is hotly debated. Progress in understanding this issue has been hampered by a lack of experiments and studies across marine predator age--classes. Without these elements we cannot understand fully the ecological impacts of forage fisheries, so cannot sustainably manage these vital stocks. By collecting fisheries, fish, and seabird data across key age- classes, and combining and combining novel experimental manipulations (time-area fisheries closures and dispersal experiments) with state--of--the--art statistical modelling, this project will establish the true impact of forage fish extraction on predator populations. Crucially, fisheries effects will be expressed as biologically--meaningful impacts on the components of demography, allowing for intuitive comparisons of the relative merit of MPAs vs stock--based catch limits designed to conserve threatened marine predators. The results will be fed directly into policy in South Africa, will inform the sustainable management of the fisheries that catch one third of all global landings and have important implications for efforts to support healthy marine ecosystems, a central tenet of the Common Fisheries Policy. The current skill set of the experienced researcher, along with newly acquired skills gained under world-class supervisors at the host organisations, will make this timely research possible. The project will facilitate new collaborations, cement a long-term relationship between the host institutions and allow the e
