user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Is International Refugee Law Effective?' (RefLex).

assistant: **Innovation**

Is International Refugee Law effective?  This is the central question of RefLex, a project that will offer the first comprehensive empirical study of the workings and effectiveness of International Refugee Law (IRL), a body of law partly imbricated with International Human Rights Law (IHRL), domesticated and judicialized to an extraordinary degree across the globe.  There are many theoretically and empirically rich studies of effectiveness of International Human Rights Law (IHRL), as well as many other fields of International Law (IL) in constructivist International Relations (IR) in particular.  The effectiveness of human rights courts and other bodies is also a well-established academic subfield.  However, there are no analogous empirical studies of IRL in practice.     RefLex will fill this huge puzzling knowledge gap, thereby making a vital contribution both to refugee studies and to scholarship on the theory and practical workings of IL.   It will develop a new dataset, the Refugee Protection Index (RPI), in order to enable our (and other) large-n quantitative studies, identify key cases to trace how IRL comes to be effective, or not.    It will also contribute to the burgeoning field of legal mobilization (LM) studies, which again, have failed to examine refugee legal mobilisation in comparative or transnational fashion.  It will break new ground here also, by studying LM from above and below by studying both UNHCR’s own LM and that of refugees themselves, both acting via transnational organisations and in local settings.   The analysis of the RPI will inform the choice of LM casestudies, in order to develop a new account of when LM emerges and when it is effective.    The project aims to provide vital insights at a time when the Global Refugee Regime (GRR) is see

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Unraveling the natural complexity of protein secretion to optimise novel robust yeast strains' to be submitted under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Protein secretion is a universal trait among organisms, involving multiple steps of quality control, sorting, trafficking, and export; as well as various organelles. Numerous pressing challenges faced by society can be addressed by thoroughly understanding protein secretion. Disease mechanisms can be elucidated, new antimicrobials can be discovered, and high-value proteins can be produced. However, exactly because of its complexity, a full mechanistic understanding of protein secretion is still lacking, impeding full exploitation. The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a promising model organism for studying protein secretion and is also a major expression host for industrial heterologous protein production. So far research has only focused on a few lab strains, that are inefficient protein secretors and that do not fully represent this yeast’s natural biodiversity. My preliminary data show that properties considered to be optimal in lab strains often are inferior to those observed in some other, more ‘wild’ yeast. Herein, I propose that natural S. cerevisiae strains can have more efficient protein production and secretion pathways and that the responsible alleles can be identified and exploited creating a robust protein-producing strain. In ProteoYeast, I will combine my skills in omics analyses and systems biology with the host lab’s QTL mapping expertise, unique yeast collection (>1200 strains) and advanced robotic systems to address the existing knowledge gap. This work will be divided into three parts: 1) High-throughput investigation of the natural biodiversity for protein secretion in a high-throughput manner; 2) ‘Round Robin’ QTL approach to identify novel alleles affecting protein secretion; and 3) development of robust strains for high-titer secretion of added-

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'FlexSens: Chemical Sensors for the 21st Century' (FLEXSENS) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

FlexSens aims to develop extremely versatile sensing strategies that can be used for the widespread generation of chemical information. The flexibility of the platform, then, refers to its ability to adapt to different environments, conditions and users.  The work intends to bridge the gap between current technological developments in areas such as flexible electronics, smart textiles, wireless sensing networks, etc., and recent progress in sensors for analytical chemistry. Under guiding principles of a minimized human intervention, widespread availability and reduced costs, FlexSens will create autonomous or extremely simple tools to perform routine determinations that will not require direct intervention of an expert. Two main research lines will be explored:1)Life embedded objects2)Low cost disposable sensors.In the first one, the project will explore the incorporation of sensors in objects used in our everyday life, especially textiles. In the second one, extremely cheap, disposable paper printed sensors will be generated.  The enabling technology will be a combination of recent progress in carbon nanotubes potentiometric sensing and printed electronics using carbon nanotubes inks. The end goal of FlexSens is to provide a battery of analytical approaches that can converge with existing and emerging social and technological trends to help in the solution of urgent social needs in many diverse areas, such as healthcare, environmental analysis, food production, etc.Carbon nanotubes will be immobilized in different surfaces -paper, cotton, rubbers- and properly functinoalized to create electrodes to be used in a potentiometric sensing scheme. The ways to generate the working and reference electrodes, their incorporation into everyday life objects and their final assessm

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Optimised rose bush production chain by innovative integration of plant improvements and automated rose bush harvesting and conditioning'.

assistant: **Concept**

The European rose production sector is since 1990 in decline due to too high labour costs aggravated by fierce competition from outside Europe including Africa and Asia The working environment in the rose sector is becoming increasingly unacceptable because the repetitive manual harvesting and conditioning work results in permanent severe back injuries among the workforce. To survive, the European SME rose producers must by biological as well as technical means reduce costs, improve rose robustness and automate rose harvesting and conditioning. The European SME rose producers are mostly relatively small firms, many still family-based and using traditional working methods. It is recognised that further, automated mechanisation is needed but mechanisation alone is not enough to reach sufficiently lower cost: biological innovations yielding more robust roses must be integrated as well. Only this integrated approach can reverse the decline of the European rose sector. The innovative part of this research is the integration of innovative bio- and industrial technologies that will improve human working conditions, make the rose plant more robust so it can survive automated harvesting and have longer shelf life, mechanise and automate the plant-to-packaged-rose production intelligently and cost-effectively, and reduce production cost by 20% and increase shelf life from 3 to 5 weeks. implementation of the project results potentially offers the European rose sector substantially lower cost (20%) and longer rose bush shelf life which is crucial for this largely exported product. Estimated benefits Europe-wide are at least 12 million ECU per annum and reversing the decline in the rose sector.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fifth Framework proposal for the project 'Fabrication Organisation and Use of Memories obtained by Focused Ion Beam'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The exponential scaling down of silicon circuits obtained during the last decades is expected to continue for the next 15 years, leading eventually to random-access memories (DRAM) with a density of almost 20 Gbits per cm2. This will require fabrication of VLSI circuits with a minimum feature size of 100 nm. Below this critical size, even if fabrication at ~35 nm proves in the near future to be practical, the implementation of 64 Gbit and 256 Gbit DRAM generations is questionable mainly because of the scaling down of charge storage capacitors. As an alternative, the fabrication of new nanomemories should be investigated. The goal of this project is to fabricate a new Ge nano-crystals based memory which utilizes direct tunnelling and storage in the Ge islands. The advantage of the process is the use of Focused Ion Beam (FIB) nano-patterning of the substrate to precisely control (at the nm level) the islands size, shape and positioning.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Economic and Financial Impacts from Rapid-Onset Compound and Cascading Climate related Risks' (ROC3Risks).

assistant: **Innovation**

Rapid-onset hazards often compound (i.e. combination of multiple hazards) or cascade (i.e. when a single hazard triggers a sequence of secondary hazards), being a main source of concern for disaster and financial risk mangers due to the potential massive direct (e.g. capital stock destruction) and cascading indirect economic (e.g. employment and GDP), social (e.g. inequality) and financial (e.g. public debt) impacts. While the current understanding on how Rapid-Onset Compound and Cascading Climate related (ROC3) hazards interconnect is progressively improving, less attention is given to how ROC3 risks lead to direct and cascading indirect impacts. The research theme proposed in this project proposal will advance the understanding of ROC3 risks by building on state-of-the-art risk models to tackle three interconnected research gaps, related to the need for: (i) identifying which, how and where ROC3 risks may occur; (ii) reliable ROC3 direct impact estimates, and; (iii) a comprehensive and dynamic assessment of the cascading indirect impacts of risks. Building on an innovative analytical framework that integrates disciplines from different scientific fields including environmental, social, and economic sciences, the project will be the first of its kind to develop and apply a comprehensive methodological framework integrating the intrinsic dynamics of ROC3 risks and the cascading macroeconomic and financial indirect impacts. The researcher and two host institutions will mutually benefit from three-way transfer of knowledge. By providing open-access datasets and open-source software, the project results have the potential to inform disaster and financial risk managers and promote the conditions for building resilience to ROC3 risks. The project is aligned with the Sendai F

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'BNCI-driven Robotic Physical Therapies in Stroke Rehabilitation of Gait Disorders' (BETTER).

assistant: **Concept**

Cerebral vascular accident (CVA, Stroke) is the most prevalent neurological condition leading to physical impairment in Western society. About 4.7 million stroke survivors are alive today. Impaired walking ability contributes to post-stroke walking disability. Walking incorrectly creates a stigma and makes patients more susceptible to injury, affecting quality of life. Most promising interventions to restore walking function are based on robotic systems that intend to restore function by focusing on actions at periphery of the body (a BOTTOM-UP approach). It is not clear how effective these treatments are and a major problem is non-compliance or non-adherence to the therapy.The main objective of the project is to improve physical rehabilitation therapies of gait disorders in stroke patients based on Brain-Neural Computer Interaction (BNCI) assistive technologies, improving systems, providing guidelines for further improvements, and developing benchmarking tools.The project will validate, technically, functionally and clinically, the concept of improving stroke rehabilitation with robotic exoskeletons based on a TOP-DOWN approach: motor patterns of the limbs are represented in the cortex, transmitted to the limbs and fed back to the cortex:-The system will provide means to assess patient adherence to therapy through a multimodal BNCI.-The proposed BNCI will combine multiple levels of neural information with the resulting motion (biomechanical) data.-It will determine if training the activation of signals that control lower limb tasks in combination with robotics devices is beneficial for restoring lower limb function.-BETTER will provide means for objective evaluation of the BNCI-based physical rehabilitation therapy and its usability and acceptability.BETTER proposes a

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Harnessing Data and Technology for Journalism' (JOLT).

assistant: **Innovation**

JOLT will deliver a world-class, multi-sectoral PhD research-training programme focused on harnessing digital and data technologies to advance economically sustainable and socially valuable journalism. Journalism is in profound crisis arising from declining advertising revenues, the dominance of US technology platforms, and the rise of online information-sharing including fake news. Journalism research has not kept pace with these changes. This is reflected in the lack of European, and indeed global, PhD programmes focussed on the intersections of journalism, data and technology. Europe lacks knowledge on the best-practice integration of data and digital technologies, strategies to overcome organization disruption, and on the political, social and ethical implications of digital journalism. JOLT addresses this lack by creating a multidisciplinary and multi-sectoral consortium of five leading European universities and twelve non-academic partners (four as beneficiaries) representing journalism NGOs, SMEs and large-scale media enterprises. JOLT’s training programme is grounded in the universities’ academic excellence and the complimentarily of diverse non-academic partners. In addition to secondments with non-academic partners, all ESRs will attend 3 industry workshops, 6 seminars on research and transferrable skills, and 3 summer schools, which draw on the cross-sectoral and multi-disciplinary expertise of all partners. JOLT’s key measurable outputs will be much-needed open-source tools and technical protocols, 30 journal articles, 30 conference papers, 15 policy and best-practice guidelines, and extensive media outreach conducted in collaboration with JOLT’s media partners. JOLT will act as a pilot for the formalization of similar PhD programmes, create a sustainable ne

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Fifth Framework proposal for the project 'Testing integrated gm-rhizoremediation systems for soil bioremediation'.

assistant: **Objectives**

This project intends to advance rhizoremediation - the combined application of plants and root zone bacteria for soil cleaning - in two essential aspects. (1) GM bacteria engineered for in site PCB degradation, will be further developed as bio monitoring strains, i.e., to signal the presence of the pollutant in plant and soil and the efficacy of the bioremediation strains. (2) Molecular detection methods for tracking GM degrader bacteria in the environment will be developed to detect and quantify the GM strains under environmental conditions. Molecular tools may also be used to monitor GM strains following a planned deliberate release. A detailed risk assessment of the GM strains and bioremediation technology will be prepared resulting in a set of guidelines for regulatory authorities and end users.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Bifurcations in nonsmooth differential equations' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The increasing amount of problems faced by mathematicians and engineers alike to understand transition phenomena caused by nonsmooth perturbations, cannot be satisfactorily treated with established (smooth) techniques. This proposal addresses the systematic development of the theory for bifurcations in nonsmooth differential equations at the Dynamical Systems group of Imperial College London. The methodology proposed in the project is based on recent key achievements by the applicant and his collaborators. The proposed research will launch a collaborative network of leading experts in mathematics and engineering in the theory of nonsmooth bifurcations within the UK and across the EU. The development of a general theory of bifurcations of stable periodic solutions in oscillating systems with nonsmooth perturbations is urgently required in relation to recently obtained numerical and experimental data in the context of several open problems in engineering.
