assistant: **Objectives**

Innovation makes Europe one of the most socially inclusive and developed regions of the world. A significant public policy effort was put in place to foster science, technology and innovation, while contributing to solve societal challenges. The main purpose is to unleash innovation-led growth that also contributes to reinforce societal values and sustained development. Engaging society with science and innovation has reached a new paradigm with the Horizon Europe Missions. All sectors need to be actively involved in implementing the Missions to reach the expected goals. From schools to companies, from scientific associations to NGOs, all will be called to contribute by co-creating new solutions, products and processes.The new generations are of particular importance. The innovators of 2030 are now being nurtured in schools, supported by science centres, museums and other non-formal education stakeholders. However, many still feel that those spaces are not meant for them. In fact, “participants for these science communication activities are drawn from socially dominant groups. We can also infer (…) who is less likely to participate in science communication: people from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds and ethnic minorities” (Dawson, 2021). EU-EMBRACES will address this challenge, by engaging those communities while showing how the HE Missions can positively impact their lives. EU-EMBRACES will be developed by a consortium led by ITQB NOVA, a research and academic institution with extensive experience in outreach and event organization, in partnership with Ciência Viva, a national agency dedicated to Scientific Culture; and i3S, a research centre with a solid educational programme for schools and the public. The project will bring together researchers and oth

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Biocatalytic Methyltransferase Cascades' (MetTraC).

assistant: **Concept**

The goal of this project is to develop a general system for preparative enzyme-catalyzed methylation reactions. Selective methylation of complex molecules can be challenging for synthetic chemistry. Given the exquisite chemo-, regio- and stereoselectivities of enzyme catalysis we believe that biocatalysis presents a powerful alternative for commercial production of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. In this project we demonstrate the applicability and commercial viability of a novel enzyme-based technology to preparative methylation reactions.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Optimizing the Adsorption of water vapour to enhance the Sequestration of Inorganic carbon and phototrophs activity in dry Soils', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Mineral carbonation is based on the reaction of CO2 with metal oxide bearing materials to precipitate insoluble carbonates, with calcium being one of the most attractive metals. While the development of industrial carbonation processes has been recommended to mitigate climate change, its natural occurrence in soils and its potential enhancement through management practices has received little attention so far. Since natural carbonation is commonly considered to be a slow process, spreading powder of non-carbonated, calcium-bearing minerals over soils, a strategy known as enhanced rock weathering (ERW), is a promising way to accelerate it. While humid tropical areas are generally regarded as having the greatest potential for ERW, recent evidence suggests that carbonation may also be significant in drylands, driven by water vapour adsorption (WVA) by soil at night, potentially representing an overlooked long-term carbon sink. The general objective of the OASIS project is to assess the potential of ERW in dryland soils. Its main underlying assumption is that optimizing WVA with amendment of highly adsorbent ground rock will maximize the carbonation process while reducing the dependence of phototrophic organisms on rainfall or irrigation. To tackle this objective, OASIS will implement field and mesocosm manipulative experiments using cutting-edge infrastructure to control environmental conditions and simulate climate change. These will be coupled to state-of-the-art measurements and isotopic tracing of soil-atmosphere water vapor and CO2 fluxes. This research will contribute to filling several gaps in our understanding of natural carbonation and its interactions with WVA, organisms, and climate change. It is also expected to provide solid arguments to implement conservation

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'European industrial doctorate for efficient multidisciplinary design Optimization of Multifunctional Aerospace Composite Structures' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Modern aeronautical structures are increasingly made of composite materials due to their well-known benefits. Optimizingthe design of aerospace composites vis-à-vis the entire range of operational constraints (i.e. reliability, stability, strength,weight, noise, manufacturability and cost) to which the aircraft structures are subject, results in a particularly challenging taskfor the structural designer. Despite the volume of recent work dedicated to new Multidisciplinary Design Optimization (MDO)models and techniques, the ‘No free lunch theorem in optimisation’ is constantly confirmed.A genuine need is therefore identified for a programme that will: i)Develop, deliver and implement novel and efficientstructural MDO technological tools for the European aerospace industry, ii)Nurture and train the next European generation ofMDO research professionals. OptiMACS has an intersectoral character, drawing know-how from both academic andindustrial research and innovation teams. It also has an intensely multi-disciplinary character, coupling expertise frommechanical, aerospace, manufacturing and software engineering, as well as from the area of applied mathematics.On the research side, OptiMACS will focus on improving the accuracy and efficiency of the MDO platform currentlyemployed by AIRBUS. This will be achieved by enhancing the design models and criteria related to composites failure andmanufacturing, developing and implementing multiscale models for composites as well as investigating advanced MDOalgorithms and architectures for enhancing efficiency.On the training side, OptiMACS will provide a fully supportive environment for 5 ESRs. A training programme aiming atdeveloping both the research as well as the transferable skills of the Fellows has been designed. All Fellows w

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Predicting the fate of plaSTic On beaches by theiR 3D-distribution and weAtherinG procEsses' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

Recent global plastic pollution models predict that two thirds of the plastic mass released from land into the ocean since 1950s is likely to have stranded around the world’s shoreline. Yet, our knowledge about the degradation, burial and transportation fate of beached Marine Plastic Debris, MPD, remains limited and little is known about the exact capacity of beaches to store MPD. To fill in current knowledge gaps in global monitoring of MPD, we propose a novel approach based on repeated field-surveys of surface and buried MPD and studying the physico-chemical transformations induced by MPD aging on Hawaiian beaches, which are known hot-spots for MPD due to their proximity to the north pacific garbage patch. Data collected from repeated surveys of surface and buried MPD on beaches will generate 3D maps of MPD and assessment of temporal MPD fluctuation and accumulation zones of MPD with respect to the type, size and density of MPD present on the surface and in the sand column. Following the aging of plastic debris when stored on beaches will reveal dominating MPD transformations and rates, including fragmentation rates, which will provide key information (e.g. changes in density, buoyancy and fragmentation) to model fate (transportation and transformation) of MPD in coastal environments.  We envision that outcomes from STORAGE can timely provide scientific evidence supporting decision making within the present and future legislative measures against plastic pollution prompted by the EU and global agreements. The interdisciplinary transfer of knowledge needed for STORAGE will be facilitated through stays at the Center for Marine Debris Research, (CMDR) at Hawaii Pacific University (HPU) in the U.S., Laboratoire Structures Matériaux Avancés et Sollicitations Hyperbares (SM

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Nanomaterial surface interactions at the molecular level and their impact on ecotoxicity' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

As nanotechnology continues to advance at an exponential rate, new products are continuously introduced into the market for research and consumer use. Engineered nanomaterials (ENMs), the functional components in these products, are often specifically designed to exploit the unique properties that nanomaterials exhibit; however, there is a widespread uncertainty on how these new properties may also potentially translate into novel risk issues in the environment. In particular, their high specific surface area and surface reactivity may promote distinct interactions with organisms particularly at the lower trophic levels. This can depend on both the intrinsic and extrinsic properties of ENMs, and can be affected by the formation of an “eco-corona”, which is composed of environmentally derived macromolecules from the milieu in which the ENMs are exposed that adsorb to the ENMs surface. However, understanding these interactions at the molecular level and their mechanistic consequences are severely limited and technically challenging, requiring a cross discipline approach. This project aims to address this knowledge gap by uncovering the underlying mechanisms for the formation and persistence of eco-coronas on a range of ENMs by combining fundamental ENM chemistry, environmental toxicology, advanced optical and mass spectroscopy and imaging techniques. In particular, this project will apply surface enhanced spectroscopic methods to characterise eco-corona composition and evolution and how this affects ENM interactions with, and impact upon unicellular organisms. By correlating the eco-corona composition with uptake route (or accumulation at external membrane) and toxicity response, and by investigating how these ENMs are partitioned within model species, the project propose

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'An integrated set of novel approaches to counter the emergence and proliferation of invasive and virulent soil-borne nematodes' (NEM-EMERGE) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Soil-borne plant-parasitic nematodes are a biosecurity risk for global food production with an estimated annual loss of €110 billion worldwide. Root-knot nematodes (RKN) and potato cyst nematodes (PCN) rank 1 and 2 in the Top 10 of high-impact plant-parasitic nematodes with RKN alone accounting for ~5% of global crop losses. RKN and PCN are A2 quarantine pests or emerging species listed on the EPPO Alert List. The two PCN species are also included in EU Commission implementing regulation 2021/2285. Recent reports document the emergence of new RKN and PCN problems in tomato and potato cropping across Europe and beyond due to two independent drivers: global warming and genetic selection. For decades, non-specific, environmentally harmful agrochemicals have been applied to manage RKN and PCN. The increasing awareness about their negative impact prompted the phasing out of most nematicides. Consequently, there is an urgent need for novel, durable control strategies that enable adequate responses by stakeholders to prevent crop losses in the EU and beyond. NEM-EMERGE will provide a spectrum of sustainable, science-based solutions for both the conventional and organic farming sector based on the principles of IPM, including (1) optimized crop rotations schemes including cover crops, (2) tailored host plant resistances, and (3) optimal use of the native antagonistic potential of soils. Moreover, monitoring and risk assessment tools will be generated to support Plant Health Authorities in decision and policy making. To ensure the adoption and implementation of NEM-EMERGE tools in the sector, a bottom-up co-creation process and multi-actor approach will be used based on stakeholder demands from both the conventional and organic sector. This makes NEM-EMERGE a key driver for the

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Multi-organ toxicity and efficacy test platform for Personalized medicine & Drug development' (ASTEROID), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

The pharmaceutical and medical fields need more predictive models to assess the effects of drugs on patients. The demand arisesfrom the desire to replace animal tests, enhance predictability, and reduce drug development time and costs. In personalizedmedicine, there's a need for tools like companion diagnostics to identify patients who will benefit and respond from specifictreatments.Recent changes in EU and US regulations, allowing drug candidates to be submitted without animal testing, have led to thedevelopment of alternative solutions like 3D cell culture and organs-on-a-chip. These technologies have shown promise in predictingdrug effects on patients, but 3 scientific challenges persist, namely including functional vascular interfaces, multilayer tissueequivalent reconstruction without PDMS, and cultivating interconnected organs with varying oxygen concentrations. Also, 2industrial bottlenecks on the compatibility with multiwell plate formats and the need for reproducible biological protocols arepresent.Cherry Biotech has developed a 3D cell culture platform that addresses these bottlenecks with three innovations: the MicrofluidicPerfusion Lid (MPL), the Hydroflat, and the Cubix control unit. These innovations have received approval from industrial and hospitalpartners and has been patented in Europe and US.The company aims to address the preclinical drug development (CubiX RUO, 2026) market and the precision medicine market (CubiXCDx, 2030). The preclinical drug development market is growing rapidly due to favorable regulatory changes, while the precisiononcology market is driven by biomarker-based assays for guiding medical treatments.Cherry Biotech's work not only has financial implications but also has a significant impact on human health and animal welfare byo

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Twinned Enzymatic and Metal CATalysis - Overcoming bottlenecks in the electrocatalysis of the carbon and nitrogen cycles', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Electrocatalysis is a branch of catalysis dealing with the enhancement of chemical reactions occurring at an electrode (known as electrocatalyst). Electrocatalytic materials are designed to overcome reaction bottlenecks affecting the kinetics (sluggish reaction rate), and to steer selectivity to the desired product(s). Transition metals and enzymes have been widely investigated as individual electrocatalysts. The aim of TEAMCat is to tap into the synergistic catalytic effect of metals and enzymes by designing a twinned catalyst, in the form of metal nanoparticles and enzymes co-deposited on carbon. The twinned catalysts will act as in a relay: the selected enzyme will produce in situ the substrate of the metal catalyst, thus sidestepping the rate-determining step of the latter. This cascade action is expected to accelerate the overall reaction rate. In parallel, mechanistic studies are crucial in pinpointing the molecular basis of electrocatalysis. In this respect, TEAMCat aims to investigate the reaction intermediates and products by combining electrochemistry with infrared spectroscopy. This will exploit a specific IR configuration (ATR-IR) for addressing carbon supported catalysts, developed in the Vincent group for immobilised biocatalysts, and now extended to supported metal nanoparticles. Not only will the project provide mechanistic insight, but the extension of this technique will represent significant progress in terms of the in situ study of supported electrocatalysts, such as those applied in fuel cells. The first reaction targeted by TEAMCat will be electrocatalytic nitrate reduction, which plays a key role in environmental chemistry, since electrocatalysis is a promising tool for the remediation of nitrate-laden water.
