user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'European Training and Research in Peritoneal Dialysis' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Peritoneal dialysis (PD) and haemodialysis (HD) are life-saving renal replacement therapies for more than 200,000 patients with chronic kidney disease in Europe, and this number increases annually. Although PD and HD have similar mortality rates, PD offers major advantages in terms of quality of life, costs, home-based treatment opportunities and early patient survival. Moreover, PD, rather than HD, offers opportunities for improvements. Nevertheless, only 10% of patients in Europe are treated with PD. Presently, PD research faces a significant shortage in workforce, probably through competition with other specialisations, the absence of a coherent training program and limited trans-European collaboration.The EuTRiPD consortium consists of eight research institutes, an SME and a large private company throughout eight of the EU Member States. Additionally, one multi-national company and three (inter)national organizations that promote education, scholarly excellence and public awareness will be associate partners. Each partner has internationally recognized expertise in PD, ranging from basic to bedside research and from raising awareness on kidney diseases to commercialisation of project results.By providing an inter-disciplinary and intersectoral long lasting training programme in PD research, EuTRiPD will address this need for researchers and clinicians in renal diseases.The scientific goal of EuTRiPD is to advance the current state of the art in PD by carrying out bench to bedside research, focused on the identification of biomarkers and interventions that promote survival and function of the peritoneal membrane. This will finally result in the clinical implementation of new therapeutic approaches.EuTRiPD will deliver twelve skilled ESRs with excellent career opportu

user: Draft an impact statement for 'The role of embryonic metabolism under maternal control in phenotypic evolution of blind cavefish', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Animal development is initially directed by maternal products deposited in the egg, entirely controlling early embryogenesis, including key patterning events, before the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) and zygotic genome activation. Despite differences in maternal programmes between species, the role of maternal factors in morphological evolution remains largely unexplored.This project aims to address this question using Astyanax mexicanus – a fish species with sighted river-dwelling (SF) and blind cave-adapted (CF) morphs that have rapidly and extensively diverged in morphology, physiology and behaviour. CF and SF egg transcriptomes display strong maternal signatures linked to differences in gastrulation and cavefish sensory phenotypes. The host laboratory discovered that divergence between maternal programmes primarily involves genes with metabolism-related functions. Thus, variation in embryonic metabolism and processes it influences may constitute an important mechanism of developmental evolution. To address this hypothesis, I propose to first characterise the aspects of metabolism under divergent maternal control to identify candidate genes for functional analysis. Second, I will employ transcriptome editing and chemical treatments to examine the function of the candidate genes in cavefish embryogenesis, and the phenotypic outcomes will be characterised to link metabolic and phenotypic variation. Finally, I will test the hypothesis that morph-specific aspects of embryonic metabolism may influence the timing, dynamics and extent of the essential transcriptome reprogramming event during embryo development – MZT. Altogether, this innovative, timely and highly integrative study will shed new light on the functional importance and mechanisms of maternal control and

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Predictive processes for intelligent behaviours, sensory enhancement and subjective experiences in robots'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Current robot technologies are still not enough autonomous and adaptive to safely and intuitively interact with people. Nowadays, artificial systems mostly rely on pre-engineered models of the world and of their embodiment. Defining such models a-priori can be very challenging and may result in robots lacking the capability to react to situations that are not foreseen by their designers. The forthcoming societal needs and economic opportunities for robotics require smarter, more adaptive and self-aware artificial systems. This project addresses this challenge by developing new methods: (1) for the autonomous acquisition of models of the robot’s body inspired on infant development, where online deep learning techniques are integrated within curiosity-driven exploration strategies for high-dimensional task spaces; (2) for the enhancement of robots’ perceptual skills based on predictive processes, such as visual input enhancement through the attenuation of expected perceptions of self-body movements; (3) for studying possibilities of an artificial Self and of providing subjective experiences to robots. The core of the proposed research lays on predictive models learned through exploration behaviours typical of infants’ development. Predictive robots will be capable of anticipating sensory consequences of intended actions. This research has a broad range of applications - such as low-cost improvement of current sensing technologies - and can advance the understanding of brain processes behind particular phenomena - such as the sense of object permanence, memory, self-awareness and sense of agency - beside providing insights for their implementation into artificial systems.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'European powdery scab initiative workshop: an interdisciplinary approach to sustainable solutions' (1998-2002).

assistant: **Innovation**

Powdery scab is a widespread and serious disease problem of potato crops throughout Europe. Control of the disease is problematic, and a sustainable strategy for disease management is urgently needed. At the European Association for Potato Research conference in 1999, the possibilities for collaboration between potato pathologists across Europe were discussed. Such collaboration in the form of a workshop would bring together a network of scientists and technicians of multidisciplinary expertise from across Europe. The aim of the workshop would be to co-ordinate ongoing research into the biology and control of the pathogen, and to identify areas of research requiring further input. Areas for discussion would include historical and current perspectives, efficiency of control measures, the importance to the seed trade and international standards. Following the workshop, a comprehensive report of the findings would be produced.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Bioinspired bimetallic catalysts for CO2 reduction beyond C1 products' (BICATC2).

assistant: **Concept**

The utilisation of CO2 as a chemical feedstock is a promising strategy for breaking the dependence of the chemical industry on oil and gas. To do this, it is necessary to go beyond the reduction of CO2 to one-carbon products such as carbon monoxide, and advance to multi-carbon ‘C2+ products’ including ethylene, ethanol and oxalate. These higher value chemicals are essential in materials manufacturing and fine chemical synthesis but are challenging to form, due to a difficult C–C coupling step which is not well understood in the state-of-the-art catalysts currently available. Inspired by the binuclear enzyme active sites found in nature, this project’s novel approach is to harness the cooperative reactivity of two metal sites, using molecular bimetallic electrocatalysts to promote C2+ product formation. Through a combination of electrochemistry, theory and complementary spectroscopic techniques, the poorly understood mechanisms of C–C bond formation will be elucidated at well defined molecular metal centres. The outcome of this project will be greater understanding of the pathways to C2+ products at two sites. This will lead to the future development of efficient catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to valuable chemical feedstocks. The applicant brings a background in the synthetic inorganic chemistry of bimetallic complexes, and will receive world-class training from the hosts, who are experts in molecular electrochemistry and spectroscopy.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Study of the environmental impact of insecticides by metabolomic foot-printing approach' (EnvFate).

assistant: **Innovation**

The European Directive in 1998 led to the increasing use of biological insecticides such as cry proteins produced by the bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) that kill mosquito larvae after being ingested. Considering the interest in Bti as more environmentally sustainable biocide, it is important to examine environmental fate and impact of Bti especially taking into account the need of this information to fulfil the REACH criteria. Chandrashekhar (PhD 2014, North Maharashtra University, India) will employed an innovative 'Environmental Metabolic Footprinting' approach, at the University of Perpignan via Domitia, France and participate in a multidisciplinary project that spans the interface between chemistry and biology. To dynamically characterize biomarkers of Bti pollution found among metabolites issued from the sediment matrix meta-metabolome will require him to develop and optimize detection protocols using LC-MS platform. In addition, metabarcoding approach will allow to understand microbial community responses to the Bti pollution. Emphasis will be placed on better standardisation, data interpretation and evaluation that will build confidence in the value of “omics technologies – this being essential to increase their (regulatory) use. Through secondment to University Joseph Fourier, Grenoble he will deepen his knowledge base by evaluating fate of Bti in the sediment through cutting edge biological analysis tools. Taken together, these activities will advance our understanding of environmental risks associated with Bti, and pave the way for the development and adaptation to new environmental monitoring tool. EnvFate will thus increase the European research visibility to promote sustainable development, ensure the protection of environment, one of th

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'TEMPerature Optimisation for Low Temperature District Heating across Europe' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The technical and economic viability of today’s district heating (DH) networks are undermined by transitions to highly efficient building stocks and ineffective business models which fail to benefit all stakeholders. TEMPO tackles this by 1) innovations to create low temperature (LT) networks for increased network efficiency and integration options for renewable and residual heat sources; and 2) new business models to boost network competitiveness and attractiveness for stakeholder investment. In TEMPO, six innovations related to networks, digitisation thereof and building optimisation undergo final development (TRL7-8). The innovations are combined into 3 solution packages suitable for 3 different application areas:  new LT DH networks in urban areas, new LT DH networks in rural areas, and existing (HT) networks. The benefits of these solution packages to reduce network temperatures will be demonstrated in 3 selected representative demos. The Vattenfall demo is a new urban LT network whereby solution package 1 will be demonstrated to reduce temperatures and therefore to enable integration of a geothermal energy source and cooling. The Enerpipe demo is a new rural LT network whereby solution package 2 will be demonstrated to reduce temperatures and so can open up the possibility to integrate a renewable energy source at a later stage. The existing network of A2A currently operates at a very high supply temperature. By integrating solution package 3, with particular emphasis on end consumer engagement, reduction in network temperatures will be similarly demonstrated. A comparable monitoring approach will ensure optimal network performance (reliability and durability) assessment and to foster maximal replication options in other areas.Each solution package will be coupled

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'End-to-End QoS through Integrated Management of Content, Networks and Terminals'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The ENTHRONE project proposes an integrated management solution that covers an entire audio-visual service distribution chain, including content generation and protection, distribution across networks and reception at user terminals. The aim is not to unify or impose a strategy on each individual entity of the chain, but to harmonise their functionality, in order to support an end-to-end Quality of Service (QoS) architecture over heterogeneous networks, applied to a variety of audio-visuals services, that are delivered at various user terminals. To meet its objectives, the project will rely on an efficient, distributed and open management architecture for the end-to-end delivery chain. Rich metadata will identify, describe, and control resource access and availability all along the content chain. The MPEG-21 data model will be used to provide the common support for implementing and managing the resources¿ functionalities. Furthermore, the MPEG-21 framework implementation in the project will contribute to the realisation of Universal Multimedia Access (UMA), which aims at achieving interoperable transparent access to multimedia resources from any type of client terminal or network and so, the rapid growing for online exchange of rich media resources.The ENTHRONE project addresses the scalable generation, protection, dynamic adaptation, distribution and usage of multimedia content and resources in geographically distributed environments. This broad, heterogeneous distribution model motivates ENTHRONE¿s concern with end-to-end QoS performance, at both the user and network levels, and with the mapping between these levels. A high-level goal of the ENTHRONE project is to bridge the divide between the content provision and the networking worlds, resulting in cross-industry co

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Mechanics of Energy Dissipation in Dense Granular Materials' (MEDIGRA).

assistant: **Concept**

Granular materials are of interest to different fields of the physical sciences and engineering. To model their behaviour, either a solid- or fluid mechanics approach is used. Rather than deforming uniformly, granular fluids develop thin shear-bands, which mark areas of flow, material failure and energy dissipation. The MEDIGRA project proposes a thorough experimental, theoretical and numerical study of the Mechanics of Energy DIssipation in dense GRAnular materials. The fundamental challenge faced by the project is to quantify the various energy dissipation mechanisms in dense granular materials using innovative thermo-poromechanical experiments. The measured characteristics are expected to lead to the formulation of appropriate analytical and numerical tools aimed to describe the mechanical behaviour of granular materials from the rigorous angle of energetics. In particular, the project proposes to: 1) Design, develop, install and exploit a novel Thermographic High Speed Cylinder Shear Apparatus (THSCSA) to study the properties of the mechanical and thermal boundary layer that is forming at the inner rotating-drum material interface, as well as determining the required thermographic properties of granular materials. 2) Convincingly quantify the way the total energy dissipation is split into heat production, grain breakage and other mechanisms, using the project-developed THSCSA apparatus and other advanced experimental apparatuses. 3) Develop physical models and robust numerical tools capable of incorporating the experimentally obtained dissipation characteristics. 4) Test the knowledge acquired within the project in two applications (shear segregation and landslide modelling). The project aims to advance our knowledge on the basic physics behind long-standing open pr
