user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'The development of a chairside diagnostic biomarker assay to assess metabolic activity with inflammatory diseases'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The project is concerned with the development of a chairside immunoassay for the detection and quantitation of biomarkers indicating inflammatory and jawbone destruction in dentistry. Specific bone matrix proteins have been identified in gingival crevicula r fluid (serum based fluid collected about teeth) in clinical conditions where active resorption of tooth supporting bone is highly probable and thus proposed as ideal biomarkers to determine the health status of deep unseen dental tissues. The assay consi dered in the project is the first prototype of a new line of diagnostic products to be developed jointly by the participants. The assay to be developed is noninvasive and aims at measuring the marker in crevicular fluid collected at tooth base on paper str ips. The immunoassay will use coloured nanoparticles for its development so that it can be read by the dental surgeon at the patient's side. The test is expected to offer more relevant information on the pathological process than currently available diagno stic procedures, allowing for quicker therapeutic handling. The test will be developed jointly by the Dental School at the University of Wales College of Medicine which identified and purified the marker, and Englebienne and Associates, a Belgian SME spe cialised in developing rapid diagnostic tests. For the project purpose, a post-doctoral student from the academic partner (who has an understanding of teeth supporting tissues and biomarkers in health and disease) will be hosted by the SME for training dur ing active product development. They will then assist in clinical validation co-ordinated by the academic partner. In the longer term, the collaboration established is intended to secure the shared development and commercialisation by the participants of a com

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Spatially resolved atom fluorescence imaging'.

assistant: **Concept**

This proposal concerns the implementation of a single atom detector based on the detection of fluorescence photons scattered by atoms when crossing a thin sheet of light during time of flight. Using an EMCCD camera to record the fluorescence signal such system will be used to resolve the position of single atoms for sufficiently low dense clouds. The experimental environment will be the atom chip, a technology which allows the trapping of cold atoms near a surface. After a full characterization of the proposed detection scheme two main investigations will be carried out. First we will study the behaviour of the second order correlation function of freely expanding Bose gases near quantum degeneracy. Taking advantage of the various trap geometries that can be achieved using the atom chip, different regime will be studied. Then, using RF induced double potential, we will create phase cat states and investigate their properties in the context of matter wave interferometry. These two investigations take advantage of the newly designed light sheet fluorescence imaging. The Schmiedmayer research group is an ideal environment in which to carry out this research due to its worldwide-renowned reputation in ultracold gases on atom chips and its new state-of-the-art laboratories at the Atominstitut der Österreichischen Universitäten. This project is also a good opportunity for the fellow to further develop his scientific knowledge in the cold atoms domain.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Solidification of Earth's Primitive Mantle'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Earth’s mantle was extensively molten in its first 100 million years. Its solidification left a strong compositional and structural imprint on the mantle, still observable today in the geochemical and geophysical record. Isotopic variations in basalts and ancient crust reveal the existence of one or more mantle reservoirs that formed early in Earth’s history, and never fully remixed. Seismic tomography reveals large, chemically distinct, thermochemical structures in the lowermost mantle, anchored to the source of these anomalous basalts. These observations leave no doubt that the mantle still bears differentiated regions that preserve signatures of its solidification. However, their formation mechanisms and compositional evolution are still unknown. Unravelling those opens a new window in understanding the early stages of Earth and planetary evolution.  The overarching question of this proposal: how did the primitive molten Earth solidify to form a tectonically and geomagnetically active planet? My goal is to address this question by investigating mantle crystallisation in the laboratory, by combining experimental petrology, thermodynamical modelling, and geodynamical simulations in a self-consistent fashion.  I propose to assemble a multidisciplinary team to: (1) experimentally study the crystallisation sequence of relevant silicate melts in the laboratory under P-T conditions extending to those at of the depth of the core-mantle boundary, using a newly developed protocol in the laser-heated diamond anvil cell; (2) use these results to constrain a thermodynamical model of phase relations and compositions, and trace-element partitioning between solids and melts; (3) use DFT calculations to calculate the density and relative buoyancy of these solids and melts; (4) feed t

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Lithosphere THINning During Subduction Initiation' (THIN) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The initial foundering of lithosphere into the upper mantle, known as subduction initiation, is one of the key, most intriguing, and least understood processes of the solid Earth’s cycle. Despite being a relatively ephemeral phenomenon only lasting a few million years, subduction initiation is paramount to understand the driving forces of plate tectonics. The study of subduction initiation processes has mainly focused on supra-subduction zone ophiolites, which are emerged relics of oceanic lithosphere originally formed above a nascent subduction zone. Geological evidence from these ophiolites strongly suggest that subduction initiation causes extreme thinning of the rocks located above the incipient subduction zone; yet, the origin and main features of this process cannot be investigated directly in modern active systems. The main objective of this project is to investigate the tectonic processes triggered by a nascent subduction zone to fully untangle the complex and still poorly understood process of subduction initiation. The proposed research will analyse for the first time the deformation in the mantle section of one of the best preserved and most complete ophiolites of the world (the Semail ophiolite of Oman) to ultimately unveil the mechanism(s) aiding lithosphere thinning during subduction initiation. THIN will use a combination of paleomagnetic, magnetic fabric, structural geological, and geochronological techniques to reconstruct the tectonic rotations in the mantle section of the Oman ophiolite and ultimately produce a four-dimensional (three dimensions over time) model of deformation that will shed key lights on one of the most fundamental geological processes for our planet.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Sodium-Zinc molten salt batteries for low-cost stationary storage' (SOLSTICE) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

SOLSTICE answers the quest for stationary energy storage with two Na-Zn molten salt batteries, which operate at elevated temperature. The first concept benefits from the existing and successful ZEBRA® technology. Replacing their Ni-electrode by cheap and abundant Zn will only minimally affect other system parts thereby ensuring fast commercialisation. The second approach, an all-liquid cell, will apply the same chemistry, but does not require a ceramic electrolyte thus reducing cost further. Both battery concepts shall be brought to TRL5, and validated by four demonstrators, operating in a realistic environment at the end of the 4-year project. The demonstrators will be equipped with a self-learning battery management system and will be accompanied by upscaling, system integration and public acceptance studies. Na-Zn technology is exceptionally performant as it promises similar efficiency and depth of discharge as Li-ion cells, but extreme current densities. Featuring molten electrodes, Na-Zn cells actually work better when being cycled, as operation keeps them warm; several cycles per day and a lifetime exceeding 10,000 cycles can be legitimately expected. Na-Zn storage is perfectly sustainable: the raw materials, table salt and Zn, are abundant in the EU, cheap and not harmful. The environmental impact of Zn-mining and battery production is expected to be minimal. Finally, recycling is greatly simplified due to the large, molten electrodes. The most valuable element, Zn, can simply be recovered as pure metal and reused after dismantling the cells. Based on the existing knowledge on ZEBRA® battery production, the storage price of Na-Zn batteries is expected to approach 1 cent/kWh/cycle by 2030 - including balance-of-plant and recycling cost. Summing up, the Na-Zn techn

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Youth Language and Cultural Practices in Postcolonial Cameroon' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Focusing on the case of urban youth styles in Duala, Cameroon, this research project will analyze the role of language and cultural practices in the construction of youth social identities in postcolonial Africa, at the crossroads of gender and race power relations. It will also analyze the forms and meanings of subaltern cosmopolitanisms at work in these multilingual and multicultural practices. My research will take three different angles. First, I will describe how gender identities are constructed through the use of Camfranglais, a hybrid youth language, while taking into account the multilingual and multi-semiotic dimensions of youth language practices. Second, I will analyze the construction of subaltern cosmopolitanisms through these youth linguistic, bodily, cultural practices, and their social meanings in the context of postcoloniality and globalization. I will show how, through processes of 'whitening', these young people can negotiate in interaction among a variety of racialized and gendered subjective positionings. Third, I will analyze the discursive processes of creating boundaries between ideological constructs such as 'languages', 'registers' or 'styles' in young people's reflexive discourses about language practices. I will also shed the light on the tensions between these discourses and youth semiotic practices observed in situ. Thus, I will propose a more in-depth understanding of the ambivalencies of racialized and gendered youth subjectivities as produced by postcolonial power relationships in a globalized economy. Methodologically, this project is highly innovative in that it combines Sociolinguistics, Language Contact, Linguistic and Semiotic Anthropology,Visual Anthropology, Anthropology of Youth, Anthropology of Globalization, Postcolonial Studi

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Role of ColQ, a specific collagen in the functionnal organisation of the neuromuscular junction' (2007-2013).

assistant: **Innovation**

My research project is based on one principal axis: how extracellular matrix proteins participate to the functional organisation of the synapse. The goal of my research project is to study ColQ induced regulation of acetylcholine receptor (AChR) expression process. Recently, during a collaborative project between Jean Cartaud and Claire Legay groups, we have shown that the C-terminal part of ColQ interacts with MuSK (muscle-specific tyrosine kinase receptor) ectodomain. This association is not only responsible for anchoring AChE in the synaptic basal lamina but could also play an important role in regulating AChR expression. Other works have shown that ColQ interacts with another partner, the perlecan, an extracellular matrix heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) interacting with the Dystroglycan (DG). Based on these evidence, we hypothesized that ColQ could regulate the number of AChR via MuSK and/or perlecan/dystroglycan pathways. These signalling pathways would then be used as pivot adapting the number of AChE molecules to the number of AChR. Preliminary results from the laboratory confirm this hypothesis and suggest that ColQ regulates AChR and synaptic proteins expression and also suggest that ColQ may act via the two signalling pathways MuSK and perlecan/dystroglycan. Using various complementary approaches of biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology both in vitro and in vivo in mice, I will identify the signalling pathways induced by ColQ, in particular those involving ColQ/perlecan/dystroglycan and ColQ/MuSK.    This study will allow me to better understand the mechanisms by which ColQ controls the postsynaptic domain differentiation at the NMJ.

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Thermomechanical response of Cu-based shape memory alloys suitable for micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) applications: interplay between grain size and sample size effects' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Shape memory alloys (SMA) exhibit unique and useful effects, such as a capacity to cycle a component between two different macroscopic shapes by cycling the temperature. In the recent years MEMS components made of shape memory alloys have attracted considerable interest in the research field as they offer a high output work density and exhibit specific desirable thermomechanical effects. As a consequence, many research studies have been focused on the development of shape memory thin films which could be integrated into the planar technology of microsystems. However, there are few works in the literature where the effects of the grain size (d)/sample size (D) ratio are studied, and those that do exist are insufficient to draw general conclusions.Among the many SMA families that have been reported in the literature, the Cu-based SMAs are attractive because they can exhibit excellent shape memory properties at a substantially lower materials cost relative to the market-dominant Ni-Ti-based alloys. In this project it is proposed to synthesize Cu-based shape memory alloys at the scales relevant to MEMS  applications.The first stage of the project comprises the design and production of SMA thin films using electrodeposition methods, with grain sizes ranging from few nanometers to tens of microns, in order to evaluate grain size effects on the thermomechanical behaviour of Cu-based SMA. Furthermore, this step will also permit to optimize the electrodeposition parameters to further carry out the electrodeposition on the pre-patterned surfaces. The second stage aims to produce SMA in the micro- and nano-meter scale dimensions (for example pillars) by means of electron beam lithography and subsequent electrodeposition. The main goal of this part is to study the contribution of t

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Eco friendly marine antifouling paint' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The objective of the proposed project as a whole (phase 1-3) is to plan, develop, secure and bring to market an innovative non-toxic and eco-friendly self-polishing boat hull paint. In the proposed project Ekomarine Paint AB will introduce the patented non-toxic anti-fouling marine hull paint to the European and the global commercial shipping market and to the global leisure boat industry. The reason why Ekomarine Paint can do this, and no one else, is that the innovation is based on a patented technology and over 11 years of research (before year 2007 research had been performed in Ekomarine AB since 2003). Exactly what we wish to achieve through the project is to develop an optimized application for commercial vessels (which is a new market for the company) and a much improved application for leisure boats (partly existing customers). This will be achieved through a well-planned project plan where Ekomarine Paint will demonstrate in full scale and in real environment, in conjunction with potential customers, the functionality, economic and environmental benefits as well as working environment improvements in various geographical and meteorological settings. In terms of technology readiness level (TRL) we will move from TRL 6 towards TRL 9 during the project life-cycle.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'The Geopolitics of Cloud Computing: How State-Firm Interactions Shape the Geography of Computation to Produce Digital Sovereignty and Dependence' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Today’s digital superpowers, the United States and China, exploit other countries’ reliance on their digital infrastructures for foreign policy and national security advantage. Governments in Europe, Asia, and elsewhere try to navigate this great power competition to retain “digital sovereignty”. A pivotal moment in these technology geopolitics is the ongoing “shift to cloud”. Instead of data being stored and processed on users’ own devices and on servers situated at organizations’ own premises, storage and processing are increasingly moving into “hyperscale” cloud data centres dotted around the world. This concentration generates significant economies of scale, decreases capital costs for firms and public sector organizations, and improves energy efficiency. However, it also creates new systemic risks, and since most of these data centres belong to U.S. and Chinese technology giants, will dramatically deepen other states’ technological dependence on them—unless smaller states succeed in shaping the shift to their advantage. In the GEOCLOUD project we will for the first time map this changing geography of computation and examine how different states are attempting to shape it with policies. Focusing on the digital superpowers’ key battlegrounds of Northern Europe and East/Southeast Asia, we will develop ways of measuring on a country level how exposed public sector and financial sector digital services are to cloud providers and how this exposure is evolving over time. We will use statistical analyses and interviews with policy makers and cloud executives to assess how effective government policies have been at shaping this exposure and at influencing the ownership and locations of hyperscale data centres. We will moreover theorize how government policies are interactin
