user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Proton conduction in structured water'.

assistant: **Concept**

In recent years water near surfaces and solutes has been observed to be differently structured andto show slower reorientation and hydrogen-bond dynamics than in bulk. Aqueous proton transfer isa process that strongly relies on the structure and dynamics of the hydrogen-bond network of liquidwater and that often occurs near surfaces. Examples are thylakoid and mitochondrial membranes andthe nanochannels of transmembrane proteins and fuel cells. An important but experimentally largelyunexplored area of research is how the rate and mechanism of aqueous proton transfer change due tothe surface-induced structuring of the water medium. Theoretical work showed that the structuring andnano-confinement of water can have a strong effect on the proton mobility. Recently, experimental tech-niques have been developed that are capable of probing the structural dynamics of water molecules andproton-hydration structures near surfaces. These techniques include heterodyne detected sum-frequencygeneration (HD-SFG) and two-dimensional HD-SFG (2D-HD-VSFG).I propose to use these and other advanced spectroscopic techniques to study the rate and molecular mech-anisms of proton transfer through structured aqueous media. These systems include aqueous solutionsof different solutes, water near extended surfaces like graphene and electrically switchable monolayers,and the aqueous nanochannels of metal-organic frameworks. These studies will provide a fundamen-tal understanding of the molecular mechanisms of aqueous proton transfer in natural and man-made(bio)molecular systems, and can lead to the development of new proton-conducting membranes andnanochannels with applications in fuel cells. The obtained knowledge can also lead to new strategiesto control proton mobility, e.g. by electrical switchin

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Dynamic Response and Instability of Seabed-Coastal Structure Systems under Waves' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Marine infrastructure plays a vital role in relation to energy, environment and sustainable development. Coastal and offshore structures built to protect coastal regions and to provide renewable energy, constitute a significant part of marine infrastructure in Europe. The need for such structures is expected to grow rapidly in the future due to increase in magnitude and frequency of storms, the alarming trends in global energy demand and finite nature of oil and gas. While there is the issue of designing safer structures for coastal protection, there is also the need for more renewable energy such as placing more wind farms. Hence, design and analysis of such structures under cyclic and breaking waves that cause instabilities in these systems is of huge concern. Geotechnical aspects play a significant role in the initiation of these instabilities, particularly the dynamic response of seabed around these structures is necessary to mitigate associated hazard. Although progress has been made towards understanding of these processes and their impact on the stability of marine infrastructure, there still remains a significant need for a comprehensive study to understand the underlying mechanics, formulate models and develop computational tools for the response and instability of seabed-structure systems. The objective of the proposed project is to evaluate cyclic and breaking wave-induced response and instability of seabed around rubble-mound breakwaters and offshore wind turbines by providing solutions to wave-soil-structure interaction problem. The objectives will be achieved with a set of tasks to be completed through a stepwise process of developing mathematical formulations and solving numerical models which will be verified with available tests. This way, the main scie

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'Retrieving novel TEXtile solutions from MArine and TERrestrial biomass'.

assistant: **Objectives**

TexMaTer aims at producing novel cellulosic fibres and bioformulations for textiles’ finishing using under-utilised biomass resources and wastes from agricultural practices and micro- and macroalgal production (typically rich in cellulose and other bioactive compounds) and post-consumer home textiles (as an extra source of cellulose). These functional and sustainable solutions will be further used in prototypes for fashion and home textiles’ markets.The project covers all steps required to produce novel cellulosic fibres and functional textiles for the envisaged markets: from the obtention and transformation of raw materials for application in textile production processes, to fibres/yarns production and bioformulations development (at laboratory, pilot and industrial scales), ending with eco-design and prototypes manufacture. To ensure recyclability and circularity of the developed solutions, and an efficient uptake of the products by the consumer, the development of TexMaTer products will be designed considering promising End-of-Life (EoL) alternatives and also functionality, safety, environmental sustainability and social and economic benefits for consumers. Consumer behaviour studies and raising-awareness actions are also planned, thus contributing to increase consumers’ acceptance for the developed products.By incorporating bio-based resources and promoting the upcycling of post-consumer textiles, TexMaTer will increase the competitiveness of the textile & clothing industry (T&CI), significantly reducing the negative environmental impacts commonly associated to this sector: 1) the intensive use of synthetic fibres, virgin cotton and wood-based cellulose (whose production is responsible for high CO2 emissions, water consumption and contamination, and inappropriate fo

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Metabolic and behavioral solutions to the nutritional challenges of life in freshwater'.

assistant: **Innovation**

When invading nutritionally-poor environments, species can expand their functional metabolic niche, by evolving the capacity to synthesize essential compounds, and/or their dietary niche, by evolving new behavioral or morphological traits that enable them to use either novel or rare resources. The relative value of behavioral versus metabolic means for resolving mismatches remains unresolved because these have not been examined concurrently. Omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFA) are important for consumers, but are scarce in freshwaters compared to marine ecosystems, presenting a challenge for species invading freshwaters. The proposed study will be the first to examine both metabolic and behavioral means for regulating nutritional composition and fitness when invading freshwaters from marine ecosystems. We will examine the dietary niche of threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) in terms of diet variation and foraging preferences, and the metabolic functional niche in terms of genotypes and n-3 LCPUFA synthesis ability. FADSEVOL will be especially innovative by building upon the recently-identified genetic basis of variation in stickleback fatty acid metabolism: FADS2 copy number variation. We will characterize the fatty-acid composition of prey and tissues of lineages that vary widely in their FADS2 copy numbers and history of adaption to freshwater (WP1). Next, we will examine foraging preferences of common garden fish for prey that vary in nutritional composition (WP2). Finally, we will evaluate n-3 LCPUFA synthesis ability, FADS2 expression, and life history traits of lineages in common-garden conditions with high or low dietary n-3 LCPUFA availability (WP3). These approaches will allow us to understand variation in both the functional

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Quantum Sensing of Chiral-Induced Spin Selectivity:  Elucidating the Relationships between Spin and Chirality in Biology with Diamond Defects', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Photogenerated spin-correlated radical pairs (SCRPs) are electron spin pairs formed in well-defined spin states. Spin chemistry of SCRPs plays important roles in biology, as famously implicated in the leading hypothesis for avian magnetoreception. At the same time, synthetic molecules supporting SCRPs provide a versatile platform for quantum information applications with synthetic chemical tunability. Recently, significant interest in SCRPs in chiral (non-superimposable mirror image) systems has grown as systems to study mechanisms of chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS), which describes spin-dependent interactions with chiral molecules like proteins at room temperature. However, the role of CISS in the spin dynamics of SCRP and physiological relevance of CISS in biological systems remain poorly understood and are significant open questions in both quantum science and modern biophysics. Quantum sensing of SCRPs using nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond offers untapped potential to elucidate the complex spin dynamics of these systems and create a long-anticipated breakthrough in identifying the potential biological roles of CISS. In the proposed work of Q-CISS, novel quantum sensing experiments using single NV centers in nanophotonic diamond waveguides will be used to detect, measure, and manipulate photogenerated SCRPs at the single to few-molecule regime and at room temperature. First, this interdisciplinary approach will systematically build new knowledge by investigating well-defined synthetic achiral and chiral model systems. Second, key experiments are outlined to identify unambiguously the potential roles of CISS in SCRP dynamics in biological proteins hypothesized to be involved in avian magnetoreception. Collectively, Q-CISS will establish a unique approa

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Origins of Collective Motion in Active Biofluids' (ActiveBioFluids) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The emergence of coherent behaviour is ubiquitous in the natural world and has long captivated biologists and physicists alike. One area of growing interest is the collective motion and synchronization arising within and between simple motile organisms. My goal is to develop and use a novel experimental approach to unravel the origins of spontaneous coherent motion in three model systems of biofluids: (1) the synchronization of the two flagella of green algae Chlamydomonas Rheinhardtii, (2) the metachronal wave in the cilia of protist Paramecium and (3) the collective motion of swimming microorganisms in active suspensions. Understanding the mechanisms leading to collective motion is of tremendous importance because it is crucial to many biological processes such as mechanical signal transduction, embryonic development and biofilm formation.Up till now, most of the work has been theoretical and has led to the dominant view that hydrodynamic interactions are the main driving force for synchronization and collective motion. Recent experiments have challenged this view and highlighted the importance of direct mechanical contact.  New experimental studies are now crucially needed. The state-of-the-art of experimental approaches consists of observations of unperturbed cells. The key innovation in our approach is to dynamically interact with microorganisms in real-time, at the relevant time and length scales. I will investigate the origins of coherent motion by reproducing synthetically the mechanical signatures of physiological flows and direct mechanical interactions and track precisely the response of the organism to the perturbations.  Our new approach will incorporate optical tweezers to interact with motile cells, and a unique μ-Tomographic PIV setup to track their  3D
