assistant: **Concept**

Europe faces a diabetes epidemic. More than 55 million people in Europe are currently diagnosed with diabetes and with an estimated 20% increase by 2030, the disease is certain to stay one of the most challenging health problems this century. Especially as diabetes no longer is a disease exclusively for adults, but affects children, young people and adults of all ages. Despite the high prevalence of diabetes, the choice of anti-diabetic drugs is still limited and two thirds of patients with diabetes do not achieve the recommended glycaemic target levels. For each new anti-diabetic drug, it is essential to investigate the metabolic effect over time. The glucose clamp technique is regarded as the gold standard to evaluate the effectiveness of new anti-diabetic drugs. There are however only a few centers with limited research capacities that have experience in using the clamp technique, because automated clamp devices are no longer commercially available and the existing techniques are confounded by a number of limitations. Increased clamp capacities are urgently needed for the development of new, more efficacious anti-diabetic drugs. Through the integration of newly emerging technologies proposed in part by the 4 participating SME organisations and with the outsourced research capacity of 3 of Europe’s leading RTD performers, the EU-CLAMP project aims to develop a new generation automated clamp device that will overcome the limitations of the existing devices by incorporating microdialysis technique for reliable continuous glucose monitoring without blood loss. The EU-CLAMP project will facilitate clamp testing in a more efficient and cost effective manner. In addition to the significant contribution that will be made to development of improved treatment options for diabe

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'New tailor-made PHB-based nanocomposites for high performance applications produced from environmentally friendly production routes'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The project aims to develop a new cost-competitive and environmentally friendly bionanocomposite material based on the combination of a polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) matrix with new chemical, structure produced by new fermentation culture technology with two types of nanofibres,cellulose whiskers and lignin-based, in order to have a true alternative to engineering materials in two main sectors: household appliances, computers & telecommunications. To fulfil this global objective, current limitations of PHB polymers and their composites will be overcome using a synergic combination of different approaches: •A tailor-made PHB biopolymer structure obtained using new fermentation culture conditions, i.e, by synergic combination of different media and precursor feedings (specific sugar blends) obtained from hydrolyzed bio-mass, being able to select a structure to provide a PHB with enhanced functionalities (improved thermal and chemical properties, cellulose compatibility, processing, higher impact,..) in comparison with commercial ones. •To improve the cost competitiveness of PHB biopolymer by optimization of the fermentation process (increasing yield) and the use of lingo-cellulose biomass and other industrial by-products as fermentation feedstock. It will be no competition with food supply. •Development of cellulose whiskers and lignin nanofibres using enzymatic production routes with new functionalities (antimicrobial, flame retardant and self-assembly) from wood waste. •Compounding of new PHB with a synergic combination of both types of nanofibres and long natural fibres, using the planetary multi-screw extruder for improved nanofibres distribution, reducing thermal degradation,improve matrix-nanofibre interphase and introduction of coupling agents by reactive extrusion. •D

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Development of an Automatic harvesting system for green asparagus with stalk detection in Ambient Light' (AmLight) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The main problem of harvesting green asparagus is the great need of seasonal workers. Usually between 1.5 and 2.5 workers are needed per ha. The high labour costs and unsatisfying working conditions have created over the last four decades the demand for a partial mechanization of the harvesting process. The increasing labour costs and the lack of in time labour supply have forced the asparagus farmers to optimize the harvesting process and to introduce harvesting aids. Several types of machines for the support of manual harvesting are available. However, all approaches towards fully automatically harvesting have failed so far, mainly for the following reasons:a)None of the currently available harvesters approach the yield and quality of hand harvesting, because of the aggressive harvest mechanizationb)Damage to emerging spears with its immediate negative effect on yield and/or lack of profitability has slowed or stopped further experimentation or commercializationThe AmLight project will overcome the current problems of automatically harvesting by implementing the following objectives:•Research & development of the AmLight detection system•Research & development of a harvesting mechanism•Research & Development of a self-driven carrier unit•Research & Development of a control program

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Double Tungstate Crystals: synthesis, characterization and applications' (DT-CRYS).

assistant: **Concept**

This proposal aims at the systematic study of double tungstate crystals for different applications. Special attention will be given to the unique multifunctional properties of double tungstates. Members of the double tungstate crystal family will be synthesized and manufactured in different geometries, with emphasis on crystalline-crystalline, bulk, thin-film, planar- and channel-wave guide, andantino-periodic photon band-gap structures. The fundamental structural, thermo-mechanical anddamage-resistivity, magnetic, optical, and optical-optical and wave guiding properties will be studied. Doping and cooping with various rare-earth ions up to the stoichiometric compositions and spectroscopy of these ions in double tungstates will be performed. Studies into the various applications of these multifunctional materials will span the range from high-power diode-pumped, highly efficient solid-state bulk, thin-film and wave guide lasers, ultra fast lasers, nano-crystalline and photon band-gap devices, second- and third-order optical devices, optical cooling through anti-Stokes fluorescence, magnetic cooling through adiabatic demagnetizationand scintillating particle detectors to applications that combine several of these features in a single device, such as self-frequency-doubled and Raman lasers or optically cooled high-power lasers. By tailoring the composition, doping, and geometry of the devices, we will be able to realize highly efficient, compact, reliable and inexpensive tools for implementation in material processing, medicine, biology, and defence-related applications.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Summer school on surface ocean-lower atmosphere studies' to be submitted under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Greenhouse gas and aerosol emissions are increasingly recognized as a threat to the quality of life as well as to the economies of the world; a threat that requires close observation, forecast and policy. Transparent and accountable verification of greenhouse gas and aerosol sources and sinks is required. Such verification relies on the quantification of air-sea exchange of greenhouse gases and aerosols, both at the regional and global levels. In the wake of the Kyoto agreement, the political imperative for monitoring is running well ahead of scientific understanding.The new international research initiative on Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS, sponsored by IGBP/SCOR/CACGP, with strong support from WCRP) aims to achieve quantitative understanding of the key biogeochemical-physical interactions and feedbacks between the ocean and the atmosphere, and to understand how this coupled system affects and is affected by climate and environmental change.Today , some air-sea exchange processes are well understood at the local level, but remain inaccurately quantified globally. For example, in spite of the fact that the partial pressure of CO2 in water and the atmosphere is relatively well measured in the North Atlantic, the mean flux of CO2 is known to less than 5O% accuracy and its variability in unknown. For other processes, even the theoretical principles of local interactions remain uncertain. The generation of dimethylsulphide (leading to sulphate aerosols) is for instance linked to phytoplankton through unknown mechanisms. Building both on recent oceanographic and atmospheric research, SOLAS is a wilful attempt at advancing the understanding of air-sea processes through interdisciplinary collaborations. The SOLAS summer school will bring young researchers in cont

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Operation of an Innovation Relay Centre in Portugal', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

This proposal aims to continue with the project of IRC Portugal (CPI) proposing a set of services designed to overcome the shortfall in the technology transfer and exploitation of Community RTD results. Being our core business transnational technology transfer, we have developed a workplan specially set up to maximise results in this domain, encouraging technology endogeneisation as well as strengthening domestic technological capabilities, by promoting through the IRC Network state of the art technologies developed by Portuguese RTD performers. The three partners Agência de Inovacao, INESC Porto and TecMinho, have complementary competencies in innovation exploitation and funding, innovation management, IPR, technology watch and transnational technology transfer. Our services will identify industrial needs and technological offers matching them through the transnational platform of the IRC Network, providing all the necessary assistance for the effective realisation of the technology transfer process reaching successful agreements. We also target less technologically mature companies, to stimulate their understanding of the competitive advantages spurring from innovation through the absorption of new technologies. CPI will be an active member of the IRC Network by participating in thematic groups, collaborating in joint events and contributing for the exchange of best practices thus improving the overall impact of the IRCs.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'TranscULturality and social innovation in frontier AReas of pre-Roman Italy' (TULAR) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Fundamental transitions in societies can be caused by several factors; amongst those, human connectivity can have a pivotal role. The TULAR project focuses on human mobility and transculturality (the coexistence of diverse culture) in archaeological sites, investigating their impact on cultural and political dynamics in ancient populations of pre-Roman Italy. The project will combine traditional archaeology (the analysis of funerary ritual and material culture) and cutting-edge scientific tools (multi-isotope, aDNA and data analysis) to provide a new understanding and novel instruments for interpreting the dynamic of interaction, formation, and development of emerging complex society in the Mediterranean. The Etruscans of pre-Roman Italy are optimally suited to exploring this phenomenon, having woven webs of networks across the peninsula and experienced considerable socio-political changes (e.g., the passage from villages to cities) in their formative phases. TULAR (Etruscan for border) examines principal proto-Etruscan frontier sites, where fluctuation in transculturality is commonplace. Despite all being initially part of the same network, those sites experience diverse cultural and political outcomes, suggesting variation in network development and offering the optimal dataset for the study. TULAR will revise the traditional narrative of the Etruscan civilisation, so important for contacts in temperate and Mediterranean Europe, providing a compelling reworking of our understanding of the European Iron Age. Meanwhile, it will offer a methodological blueprint for studying transculturality and socio-political development globally, framing new directions in research on mobility and its impact on ancient societies.

user: Describe how 'A lab-on-chip platform for blood cell counting and identification at the point-of-care' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Blood cell counting/identification is the most powerful and widespread approach throughout the world for assessing an individual’s health status. The diagnosis and monitoring of an infection (e.g. HIV, malaria, bacterial infection), the monitor of a chemotherapy outcome (e.g. in cancer patients) or even the diagnosis of rare diseases (e.g. sickle cell disease, non-Hodgkin lymphomas), relies on analysing the number and/or the morphology of different types of blood cells.  Here, we aim to validate a portable, single-cell counting/identification platform that can be used to diagnose and monitor diseases at the point-of-care. The platform consists of a low-cost, handheld, battery-operated, scanner and a disposable microfluidic biochip. The underlying technology, termed ‘Label-free Cell Identification (L-CI) technology’, is based on the integration of novel, microfabricated components that enable to simultaneously image and count thousands of cells at high spatial resolution. If successfully commercialized, the L-CI platform will be the first medical instrument to perform a blood cell counting test by the end user at home, in few minutes. The potential is enormous as the L-CI platform will replace millions of blood cell tests that routinely performed by trained personnel in clinics and hospitals in the developed world but it will also make blood cell tests available in the developing wold.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'EUROpean scale infrastructure in NANOBIOtechnology'.

assistant: **Concept**

EuroNanoBio aims at defining the key features of the future EU capacity in nanobiotechnology and the roadmap to reach this goal. It will establish the features of the infrastructure, the role of the various stakeholders and the way to establish it.  This Support Action is divided into three phases:  1) An analytical phase where the existing data, published or not, will be scrutinised and analysed to extract some success factors to be used for defining the EU infrastructure in nanobiotechnology. This analysis is conducted in four directions • existing top class infrastructures or clusters inside and outside Europe • modes of technology transfer from research to industry • multidisciplinary education and training • ancillary aspects of nanobiotechnology. 2) A building and consensus phase where many diverse stakeholders who play a role in the EU capacity in nanobiotechnology are invited to jointly defined and adopt the key features of the infrastructure, and the way to build it 3) A dissemination phase where the former results will be widely disseminated using Internet and a large dissemination event.  The EuroNanoBio partners are highly experienced in EU integration in nanobiotechnology in general as well as in specific aspects studied in the CSA. They have unrivalled access to a wide panel of stakeholders in governments, industry, education, regulation, ethics. The consortium will act as a catalyst for these stakeholders to collect their contribution and make them build together the roadmap for establishing the EU capacity in nanobiotechnology.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Science generation : bridging the gap between biosciences and citizens' (1998-2002) targeting Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Recent developments in the Life Sciences have major implications for our future. These advances inspire both fascination and fear; the disquiet of our fellow citizens translates their attitude to, and expectations of, scientific progress and raises questions of an economic, social, religious, and ethical nature. There exists an urgent need to set up new forums of dialogue and education to bridge the gap between Biosciences and the general citizen. This is the goal of the innovative programme presented here, based on 4 complementary and interactive elements: a monitoring system (barometer), a major annual symposium, a network of regional and European mobilization channels, an Web site. With the involvement of French, Italian and Swedish partners, SCIENCE GENERATION has the objective of creating the basis of a European citizens network, a kind of European instance for dialogue with the public on the issue of Bioscience.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Cardiovascular disease, energy dysregulation, and the role of depression and the social cure.', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Depression affects over 300 million people world-wide and is the single largest contributor to global disability, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO). Research has highlighted that individuals with depression have a two-to-four fold increased risk of developing cardiovascular disease (CVD). Notably, CVDs are the most common cause of death globally and are a huge economic burden to society. For example, in 2015 alone CVDs cost the EU over €210 billion (WHO). However, the mechanisms linking depression with increased risk of CVD are poorly understood, posing a challenge to the development of appropriate interventions to reduce this risk. CEDAR aims to elucidate the potential biological mechanisms linking depression with increased risk of CVD by adopting state-of-the-art techniques from exercise physiology and clinical psychology. Specifically, this interdisciplinary and timely project will be the first to examine the relationship between depression and energy dysregulation during stress, and will consider the role of gender and depression severity. CEDAR will also test an intervention for reducing the risk of CVD in individuals with depression. Applying knowledge from the social identity approach to health, a social cure intervention will be employed to examine if this has an influence on (i) physiological responses to stress, and (ii) if this influences stress responsivity in individuals with depression. The results of this project will not only elucidate the relationship between depression and CVD risk, but the advanced research skills learnt during this fellowship can be applied to future projects examining the link between stress responsivity and pathogenic disease risk; advancing methods in stress physiology research.
