user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Hybrid Thermoelectrics: From Model to Device' (HyThermEl) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Europe’s 2030 climate targets make the development of renewable energies a key challenge for researchers across many fields. Thermoelectric generators (TEG) are an emerging technology that promises conversion of the huge amount of waste heat into useful electricity. However, despite big research efforts, they remain niche applications. The reasons are low efficiencies, high costs and scarcity and toxicity of suitable inorganic materials. There is a recent and growing interest in organic-inorganic hybrid TEG. The idea is to combine the advantages of an organic semiconductor (low thermal conductivity, high thermopower) with those of an inorganic nanostructure (high electrical conductivity) by forming a blend of both. Exciting results have very recently been obtained with hybrid materials far outperforming the isolated constituents. This is also a remarkable achievement, given the multi-dimensional parameter space and the absence of a formal framework, forcing progress to be made by mostly heuristic approaches.HyThermEL aims to develop the first predictive, quantitative model for the performance of hybrid thermoelectric systems. By explicitly accounting for morphology, energetics, interfacial effects and the different transport mechanisms of the constituents, the outcome will be physics-based design rules. In a continuous feedback between experiment and theory, these will be employed to fabricate improved hybrid thermoelectric devices while refining the model. The field of hybrid thermodynamics is still in an initial state, so improved fundamental understanding and practical design rules are expected to have great impact on the community. In particular, we are convinced that current hybrid TEG are still far from their upper performance limits and that this project will ope

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Carbon nanotube networks for electronics applications' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are well known for their unique electronic, thermal and mechanical properties. Ensembles of CNTs form networks that can be transparent and at the same time conductive, showing great potential for replacing the currently used indium tin oxide (ITO), whose future availability is at risk due to the impoverishment of the world's sources of indium. CNT networks offer not only an alternative to ITO but also advantages like flexibility, useful with plastic substrates, or avoiding the contamination from ITO of other device materials.The studies of transparent conductive CNT networks are still at an early stage and despite their good performance the measured properties are below expectation due to the presence of different tube types (metallic and semiconducting) in the same sample, impurities, defectious tubes and interconnection problems. One aim of this project is to explore recently developed possibilities of sorting CNTs according to type for realizing improved and tunable networks. Due to the high anisotropy of CNTs, their macroscopic organization has an impact on the properties of the network: disorganization brings an averaging-down of the properties of individual tubes that thus could be brought to macroscopic scale only by ordering. The applicant has previously shown that liquid crystalline materials can be used to unidirectionally align CNTs. We propose in this project to use this approach also to form aligned networks, studying the relation between electrical conductivity and degree of order and evaluating the corresponding percolation thresholds. The networks will be implemented in device configurations such as LCDs, OLEDs, and solar cells. Also graphene has recently shown to have excellent properties as transparent electrode, but further stu

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Soft-sediment macrofaunal recolonisation: effects of scale, habitat and life-history characteristics' (1998-2002).

assistant: **Innovation**

Coastal soft-sediment habitats are regularly disturbed by a variety of natural processes and human activities, and the effects of these disturbances vary with spatial and temporal scale. Such scale dependence of patterns and processes in ecological communities is receiving increased attention. Using field experiments deployed along a gradient of wind-wave exposure this project aims at investigating the interactions between spatial scale, habitat and life-history characteristics of colonising species in the recovery of soft-sediment macrofaunal communities following disturbance. At each site different sized patches (0.25-16 m2) will be defaunated and subsequent macrofaunal recovery followed over two recruitment seasons. Wave-climate, sediment transport, characteristics, and rates of dispersal of post-settlement juvenile benthic invertebrates will be monitored at the sites. This will increase our understanding of how the relative contributions of larvae, juveniles and adults are modified by changes in the spatial scale of disturbance and what the consequences are for the rates and patterns of community succession.At the same time it will elucidate how benthic communities in contrasting habitats recover from disturbance of varying spatial extent. The aim is thus to fill an important knowledge gap on the scale dependence of colonisation and succession in marine soft-sediment systems, with implications both for ecological theory and for environmental management and protection.I believe a post doc at KMRS would provide the appropriate intellectual setting for me to not only advance my own career but also to advance theory in the area of disturbance ecology. A post doc position would provide me with a unique opportunity to develop my own research profile in Europe and mature a

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fifth Framework proposal on 'On the threshold to urban panopticon? analysing the employment of closed-circuit television (cctv) in european cities and assessing its social and political impacts'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Since more than ten years it can be observed a rapid proliferation of video surveillance systems (closed-circuit television - CCTV) in many European countries. Supporters of this social control technology claim it to be an effective instrument in combating crime and thus, in enforcing and maintaining social order. Opponents fear its misuse and believe CCTV to be a potential threat to the democratic constitution of European societies. The aim of the proposed project is to study the employment of CCTV in public accessible spaces in order to analyse and assess its social effects and political impacts - their common trends and national differences. The outcomes of the project will contribute to the formulation of guidelines for a regulation of CCTV meeting both the demands for efficient and suitable employment and the claims for effective and accountable control.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Researchers' Night 2007 in Poland' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The main objective of the project „Researchers’ Night in Poland” is to bring the researchers closer to the large public by showing their significant role they play in society, particularly within the citizens’ daily life. The implementation of the project will contribute towards showing to the large public the attractiveness of the scientific profession and their relevance in creating knowledge-driven society. This will be achieved by organising a set of events taking place during the night on 28 Sept. 2007.  As a result of the project, the researchers will be perceived as “ordinary people” to which the public can identify itself, wiling to share their passions for research with every citizen in Europe according to the saying: “Researchers are among us”. In particular it is expected that the implementation of the project will convince young people that scientific careers can be fascinating and stimulate their embarkation on scientific orientations. The project will also have an influence on developing favourable conditions for scientific environment, also increasing Europe’s attractiveness as a place for conducting scientific career.  Achieving the projects objectives will be possible thanks to organising such relaxing activities as: hands-on experiments conducted by researchers, scientific demonstrations realised by researchers with public participation, guided visits of labs, real scientific experiments handled by the public, workshops, quizzes, etc.  The project’s duration is 6 months. It will be divided into three main phases. During the first phase an awareness campaign will be organised aiming at informing about the Researchers’ Night as large a target as possible. The second phase concerns activities taking place during the night itself. The third phase will conc

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'RSL4 is a master regulator of cell growth and size' (RSL4).

assistant: **Concept**

Growth and size of cells is tightly regulated in all organisms. Recent work in the host lab identified a transcription factor called RSL4 that is a master regulator of cell growth. RSL4 controls cell size in root hairs, a model cell type for the study of eukaryotic cell growth. The current hypothesis is that RSL4 is present in growing cells and its degradation signals the cessation of growth. The overarching aim of this proposal is to understand how RSL4 controls cell size during development. The first objective would be to identify and study the genes that effect RSL4-regulated growth while the second is to characterize the temporal regulation of RSL4 protein stability during the phase of active growth and its degradation as growth ceases. We anticipate that these studies on RSL4 will unravel general mechanisms of eukaryotic cell growth regulation.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Nuclear Envelope Biogenesis, Function and Dynamics' (NUCENV) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The nuclear envelope (NE) harbors key roles in cellular and organismal homeostasis, reflected by a variety of diseases caused by mutations in NE proteins. Despite the fundamental role of the NE in protecting and organizing the genome, still little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying NE biogenesis, dynamics and functionality. We will address 3 open questions in NE biology, using vertebrate cells as model system. (1) To understand how the functional specification of the NE by transmembrane proteins is generated, we will decipher how membrane proteins are sorted to the inner nuclear membrane (INM). To reach this goal, we will define targeting signals and the mode of NPC passage of INM proteins, and identify the molecular requirements for transport. (2) Based on structural analysis, we will investigate how the molecular organization of LINC complexes, which are formed by interacting pairs of SUN and KASH proteins spanning the NE, determines their role in NE architecture and as tethers of the NE to the cytoskeleton. (3) We will study dynamic changes of the NE that occur at the onset of ’open’ mitosis, when the nuclear compartment is disintegrated to allow for the formation of a cytoplasmic mitotic spindle. NE breakdown (NEBD) presents a dramatic change of cellular architecture and comprises a series of events including disassembly of nuclear pore complexes, the nuclear lamina and retraction of NE membranes into the endoplasmic reticulum. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms controlling and executing these steps of nuclear disassembly, we will characterize the cellular machinery involved in NEBD and unravel the molecular function of identified components. All these questions will be addressed by a blend of in vivo approaches relying on high-end fluorescence im

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Efficient design and control of agglomeration in spray drying machines' (EDECAD), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Spray drying is an essential unit operation for the manufacture of many European products with specific powder properties. Presently specific requirement of users can be addressed by trial and error only. The knowledge and technologies will be generated to develop a new generation of machinery fulfilling increasingly stringent requirements.The knowledge on spray drying in 'ideal' systems will be extended into 'real' systems. An industrial validated Design Tool (predictive model) will be developed and implemented in a prototype predictive control system for new generation multi-product systems for monitoring control and optimisation of agglomeration. Databases on spray conditions of industrially used nozzle configurations and on the relation between the degree of agglomeration and product functionalities will be improved.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Investigating genotype-phenotype correlations in SOX10 neurocristopathies'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Neural crest formation is a critical event in development, giving rise multiple cell types including melanocytes, neurons and glia. This complex process is governed by a network of transcription factors, such as PAX3 and SOX10 and mutations in these genes have been associated with developmental syndromes. Waardenburg syndrome (WS) and Hirshsprung disease are examples of these neurocristopathies and patients suffer symptoms ranging from sensorineural hearing loss and pigmentation defects to intestinal aganglionosis. Over 50 case studies of WS have been reported in Europe and the incidence is estimated to be 1 in 42 000 people. Recent investigations into the molecular basis of WS have failed to identify genotype-phenotype correlations between gene mutations and symptoms, likely due to the in vitro nature of these studies. It has therefore become clear that new tools are needed to better understand the genotype-phenotype relationship in neurocristopathies in an in vivo context. The SOX10mutants project proposes to address this using a novel zebrafish rescue assay to investigate the effects of SOX10 mutations on the development of cell types deriving from the neural crest. Results from this study would impact significantly on genetic counselling and pre-natal screening of WS patients and provide proof-of-concept data for the use of zebrafish as a tool for studying neurocristopathies. This project is the basis of a multi-disciplinary collaboration between Prof. Robert Kelsh (University of Bath, UK) and Dr Nadège Bondurand (INSERM, France), bringing together zebrafish expertise with WS clinical genetics experience. The research fellow, Dr Deeya Ballim, contributes transcription factor knowledge and a diverse skill set. Deeya aims to establish an independent research group and

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Rich, Structured and Efficient Learning of Big Bayesian Models' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

As datasets grow ever larger in scale, complexity and variety, there is an increasing need for powerful machine learning and statistical techniques that are capable of learning from such data. Bayesian nonparametrics is a promising approach to data analysis that is increasingly popular in machine learning and statistics.  Bayesian nonparametric models are highly flexible models with infinite-dimensional parameter spaces that can be used to directly parameterise and learn about functions, densities, conditional distributions etc, and  have been successfully applied to regression, survival analysis, language modelling, time series analysis, and visual scene analysis among others.  However, to successfully use Bayesian nonparametric models to analyse the high-dimensional and structured datasets now commonly encountered in the age of Big Data, we will have to overcome a number of challenges.  Namely, we need to develop Bayesian nonparametric models that can learn rich representations from structured data, and we need computational methodologies that can scale effectively to the large and complex models of the future.  We will ground our developments in relevant applications, particularly to natural language processing (learning distributed representations for language modelling and compositional semantics) and genetics (modelling genetic variations arising from population, genealogical and spatial structures).

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Totally integrated microengineered ion sensors for large-scale applications' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The overall objective of the project INION is the development of the IC compatible technological basis for pilot manufacturing and further mass-production of a new generic type of ion sensors: Ion-Selective Conductometric Microsensors (ISCOM). The ISCOM requires no reference electrode, has a single-probe, all-solid-state construction. These sensor design features will allow for the first time complete manufacturing of integrated ion sensors using only IC technology compatible fabrication processes.The manufacturing processes for ISCOM-based sensor systems will be optimised and appropriate sensor materials will be manufactured and tested. Special attention will be paid to specific requirements in materials, resistance to hostile environment, manufacturability and compatibility between different foundry processes. Dedicated interface electronics will be developed and tested.The project will culminate in a pilot fabrication of the sensors in a small series for field tests.Public and private bodies responsible for public hygiene and health and all sectors of industry, require accurate, reproducible, stable and low-cost ion sensors to enable real-time monitoring of water quality and industrial effluents on a large scale. In healthcare the low-cost ion sensors would have direct impact on the development of nearpatient monitoring techniques.The potentiometric measuring cells currently used in ion monitoring apparatus must comprise an electrochemical reference electrode that requires artisanal manufacturing and is of a macroscopic size. Failure to design a microelectronics technology compatible reference electrode prevents mass-production of ion sensors and decreases their application scope. This compromises the recent progress achieved in emerging microsystem technology and in

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Stimulating the Wider participation of European Enterprises To the SME specific' (SWEETS).

assistant: **Concept**

The main SWEETS objective is to stimulate make aware and strengthen the participation of industrial SMEs within the 5th FP and increase the technological level in firms of traditional industrial sectors by means of promoting Community opportunities and assistance to SMEs in addressing technological and organisational problems. The SWEETS will pursue the modernisation of traditional sectors by exploiting the use of new technologies for the improvement of the quality of products and processes as new methods of organising production processes. Targets will be SMEs with no or very few research capabilities, approached with direct contacts and visits and assisting in establishing European partnership and in submitting new projects. So as to be as efficient as possible, this action will last 30 months and will assist the SMEs from the time of their initial idea to the submission of at least 75 new proposals.
