user: Draft an impact statement for 'Compact X-Ray Fluorescence borehole probe for uniquely flexible, efficient and complete underground material analysis', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

J&C Bachmann is specialized in the design and development of industrial measurement and control equipment for the mining industry. We develop physical and image based analysis and measuring methods for the determination of material properties, quality assurance and process automation. With an experienced team of physicists and engineers, we provide highly specialized and high added value measuring and control products and services. In the mining industry and for any other environmental and geologic research applications, exploration investigations are frequently accompanied by large scale drilling and blasting. Traditional methods of elemental analysis of samples in laboratories or through complex on-site equipment are both time consuming and extremely expensive, while also involving significant environmental damage: Over €10 billion are spent every year on prospecting and exploration tasks worldwide. For a particular site, this process can take up to 8 years to complete and cost over €15 million. Over the last years of R&D, we have conceived a miniaturized probe that uses X-Ray Fluorescence analysis to measure with outstanding accuracy the ground’s mineral composition along small, low-impact boreholes. Without any radioactive sources, the compact probe directly collects precise and real-time elemental analysis information directly inside the borehole. Our probe will help improve the efficiency of the prospecting and exploration stages, by reducing its cost and duration by 80%. At a fraction of the cost of larger, bulkier radioactive neutron-based probes, IBERIA XRF will also provide us with a key market advantage, allowing us to sell an estimated 250 units by 2025 and generate over €20 million in revenues. It will also provide us increased visibility and allow us to co

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Humanitarian Technology Interventions' (HUMANITECH), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

There is growing global interest in the positive role of technology (such as mobile phones, sanitary toilets, or malaria nets) to alleviate problems associated with poverty and humanitarian crises. However, research on humanitarian technology interventions is overly technology-centric, focusing on issues of design, production, delivery, and efficiency.  This research project will advance the study of humanitarian technology as an organisational phenomenon with the dual objective of advancing scholarship and informing intervention policy and practice. Specifically, the research project will explore three multi-level phenomena associated with humanitarian technology interventions: the role of rhetoric in establishing international technology standards, global organizing of interventions, and the experiences of user-beneficiaries. These will be explored through the following research methods and modes of analysis: case study design, dramatism, narrative interviews, and thematic analysis. Scholarly innovation and expertise will be realized by advancing and applying the research methodologies of dramatism and narrative interviews to study humanitarian technology interventions.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'The spread of pathogens in social networks: a field study' (2007-2013) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

In recent years, there have been a growing number of attempts to study wildlife diseases from an ecological perspective and to understand their dynamics and evolution in wild populations. But although there is now an increasing awareness of the impact of disease pathogens on the dynamics, structure and genetic diversity of wild host populations, empirical knowledge of the factors affecting transmission of pathogens in natural host populations is still lacking. The vast majority of theoretical models of disease evolution assume that all individual hosts have an equal likelihood of encountering infection. In many natural populations, this assumption is unrealistic because the number of potential contacts of a given host is finite, which leads to heterogeneity in the risk of infection among individuals. To date, most studies of disease transmission in social networks have focused on human populations, where complete and reliable social network data are difficult to obtain. As a consequence, current knowledge on the spread of pathogens within social networks mostly comes from theoretical models. Good datasets associating social network structure, spatial information and epidemiological data are now needed. Here I propose a multidisciplinary project aimed at the transmission routes of pathogens in populations of two model species of territorial hole-nesting birds. the project has the double aim of testing the extent to which social interactions among individuals affect the transmission of pathogens, and of using social network data to acquire knowledge on when and where individuals get infected by pathogens. We will focus on two kinds of pathogens. First, we will apply these questions to bacterial communities living in and on birds. Second, we will also focus on avian malari

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Study of the dynamics of polymeric ionophoric channels by scanning electrochemical and scanning kelvin probe microscopy' (1998-2002) targeting Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

In this project, two relatively new microscopy techniques, Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy (SECM) and the Scanning Kelvin Probe (SKP) will be optimized to investigate the dynamics of artificial ionophoric channels. Both techniques in tandem will offer a powerful tool for characterizing the behavior of these materials, which will underlie future applications in sensors technology, nanotechnology and bio electrochemistry. The artificial ionophoric channels will be made by Ring Opening Metathesis of a series of substituted 7-oxanorbomene monomers. Previous work using Corey-Pauling-Koltun (CPK) molecular model indicate that these polymers have the ability to form helical structures with all of the tetrahydrofuran oxygen facing into the interior of the helix. Monomers synthesized here have different configuration of the substituent on furan ring and will therefore allow systematic structural modifications of the basic polymer skeletons; in order to enhance ion binding, ion transport and ion selectivity properties. They bind cations in a manner similar to that of the crown ethers. However, unlike the crowns, whose complex ability is determined to a large extent by the relative cation and macro cycle cavity dimensions. These polymers can effectively bind cations of widely varying by adapting their conformation to optimize its multidentate coordination with a given cation. A series of polymers of different chain length (molecular weights) will be prepared to further ion binding, ion transport and ion selectivity properties. Thin films of the polymers will be cast in special cells between a 'donor' and an 'acceptor' compartment and the membrane dynamics probed using ions of varying sizes. Probes will be prepared as required. This is an ambitious programme that will be mutual

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Hybrid Quantum Systems - Integrating Atomic/Molecular and Solid Sate Quantum Systems' (HQS) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Quantum physics is fundamental for our understanding of nature, and consequently at the centre of the development of new methods and technologies. In recent years it became evident that quantum physics in itself can have fare reaching implications.  A robust technological implementation of quantum physics has the potential to be one of the defining technologies of the 21st century.  Presently quantum physics is confined to its separate worlds.  For quantum physics to emerge from fundamental research, one of the main challenges is how to link different quantum systems to each other and preserve the quantum nature also over the link. One has to be able to quantum interconnect the different domains.  A robust technological basis for this is currently not available.   The objective of the present proposal is to bring together all the fantastic possibilities of QIPC with a cooper pair box and circuit CQED (transmon physics) with the physics to cool and trap and control atoms/molecules.  All together will be integrated in a hybrid device by adapting the AtomChip concept to the environment of the Solid State QIPC. Our first approach will be to use the near field enhancement in high finesse strip line MW resonators of circuit CQED to couple single MW photons to  collective excitations in the trapped atomic clouds, thereby establishing a quantum interconnect between solid state quantum device and an atomic ensemble acting as a quantum memory.    Our research towards this ambitious goal will establish the scientific and technological foundations of a new class of instruments, a hybride quantum processor.  By connecting the fast processing in a solid sate device to the exceptional long coherence times in an atomic/molecular system as a quantum memory will add essential features, p

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Functions And Mechanisms Of Ultraosund In Soy Protein Isolate (SPI)-Pectin Nannoemulsion Preparation' (SPI) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

According to the European Commission, in 2050, functional foods will constitute a substantial part of foods on the EU market, which will largely rely on the innovation in improved additives. Nanoemulsions are under investigation as a mechanism for the delivery of bioactives to food systems, and are found to have benefits such as improving the taste and bioavailability of numerous ingredients. Recently, protein-polysaccharide complexes and conjugates are being developed for use in the creation of nanoemulsions. However, poor functionality and low production efficiency greatly limit their industrialisation. Therefore, this study proposes to introduce ultrasound technology to complexes/conjugates preparation, aiming at obtaining innovative nanoscale additives with strengthened efficiency and properties. This project will be carried out during a 2-year period at Teagasc with a 3-month secondment in Trinity College Dublin. Soy protein isolate (SPI) and pectin are selected as wall materials for nanoemulsion preparation. Firstly, they will be modified to generate simpler segments for electrostatic or Maillard reaction and the optimum structures for different reactions will be determined (WP1). Then, ultrasound will be applied respectively to electrostatic and Maillard reaction; its free radical and mechanical effects will be studied (WP2). Finally, the delivery properties of ultrasound-prepared SPI-pectin complexes/conjugates will be investigated with β-carotene as a core material, and the effect of the formation mechanisms of nanoemulsions on their functionalities will be analysed (WP3). Results of this study will contribute to the industrial applications of ultrasound in food additive production, thus promoting the development of high-tech functional foods in the EU, and adv

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'Ultraviolet-sensitive genetic disorders associated with defects in dna repair and transcription'.

assistant: **Concept**

The UV-sensitive disorders, xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Cockayne Syndrome (CS) and trichothiodystrophy (TTD) are associated with defects in DNA repair. XP is cancer- prone, whereas CS and TTD are cancer-free multi-system genetic disorders. The genes defective in CS and TTD have dual functions in DNA repair and in transcription. We will1) establish cell strains from new patients, characterise their DNA repair defects and determine the sites of the mutations in the appropriate genes;2) determine the effects of the mutations on the activities of the gene products;3) determine the relationships between defects in repair and transcription, by analysis of TFIIH, the transcription factor affected in patients with TTD and some patients with XP, and by studying the mechanism of transcription- coupled repair, witch is defective in CS;4) identify the defect in the variant form of XP;5) study genotype-phenotype relationships in transgenic mouse models

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Peer Learning of Innovation Agencies for Services of Access to Finance for Innovative SMEs'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Innovative SMEs are most likely to create new markets, achieve rapid growth, and help the economy recover. Externalfinance may be particularly important for innovative SMEs, as they usually lack the internal resources to successfullycommercialise innovations. However, innovative SMEs often find it the hardest to obtain finance because they tend to haveriskier business models, which are important to create new markets but are also difficult for banks to value. Innovative SMEsare often more reliant on intangible assets, rather than physical property, but intangibles are difficult to value as they arecontext specific, and thus hard to use as collateral for lending.AccesSME project is dedicated to contribute tackling this issue. The objective of the project is to enable the participatinginnovation agencies to cooperate in a tangible and cost-effective manner so as to improve existing or create new concepts,methodologies and tools for SMEs on access to finance through mutual learning and exchange of good practices. Theproject aims to cover three kinds of access to finance options:1) Business to business (B2B) matching for partnerships and investments2) Horizon 2020 SME Instrument3) crowdfunding platforms.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Using reaction norms to identify glucocorticoid phenotypes and their relationship to fitness in individuals of a wild vertebrate.', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Environments are currently changing at unprecedented rates, but the evolution of endocrine response mechanisms is still hardly understood. As environmental transducers, hormone levels are plastic, and basic evolutionary questions such as the nature of individually-consistent hormonal traits are still unanswered. The research proposed here embraces hormonal plasticity by using a novel reaction norm approach. Reaction norms are a gold standard in physiological and evolutionary ecology, but have rarely been applied to hormones. Glucocorticoids (GC) mediate environmental responses in many vertebrate traits. Using great tits (Parus major), I will characterize individual GC phenotypes by quantifying GC components and their reaction norms across environmental gradients. These will be assessed repeatedly to test for repeatability, while field studies will explore fitness relationships. I will address four hypotheses: 1) Individuals differ in GC flexibility; 2) Individuals show repeatable GC responses across different contexts and seasons; 3) GCs are related to reproductive success; and 4) GCs modulate reproductive performance. I will quantify GCs at baseline, after capture-restraint and after negative feedback induction in captivity. I will also assess variation in baseline GC along temperature and workload gradients. I will conduct these tests in non-breeding and breeding seasons to calculate repeatability for GC components. I will then adapt these methods to the field, to investigate how GC flexibility correlates with fitness. Finally, I will impose an environmental challenge during the chick-rearing stage by increasing workload to assess GCs and performance. With this novel approach I aim to advance evolutionary endocrinology by identifying individual hormonal characteristic

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Development and demonstration of a dynamic, web-based, renewable energy rating platform'.

assistant: **Concept**

In order for the EC to achieve ambitious renewable energy targets there is a strong need to accelerate market penetration of Renewable Energy Systems (RES) in both industrial and domestic sectors. The domestic sector is of major significance, as it will reduce reliance on large centralized energy plants. There are several domestic options including solar thermal, solar electric, heat pump and biomass systems. Of these, solar and heat pump technologies have the widest potential application as they require no physical feedstock. However, despite steady market growth, these technologies still make up only a small fraction of total household energy supply. One of the main reasons for this is the initial investment required, coupled with uncertainty over return on investment. This is compounded by the huge range of available products and a lack of objective information relating to system performance.  As a result, consumers are often confused and unable to make informed decisions. In addition, installation companies often experience difficulties when advising customers on the various options and their respective benefits. Hence, despite considerable technological advancements in terms of system performance and efficiency, there exists a significant knowledge and confidence barrier that restricts increased market acceptance.  In order to address this problem, we propose to develop a system that can automatically provide accurate and objective information about the suitability of a renewable energy technology for a given user scenario. The system will be intuitive and easy to use employing a unique dynamic grading technology. This will enable consumers to make better informed decisions and will allow our membership to provide better service. This will help to significantly inc
