user: Draft an impact statement for 'Lego-Style Materials, Structures and Devices Assembled on Demand from Isolated Atomic Planes""', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Following the advent of graphene with its wide range of unique properties, several other one-atom-thick crystals have been isolated and their preliminary studies have been undertaken. They range from semiconducting monolayers of MoS2 and NbSe2, which similar to graphene exhibit the electric field effect and relatively high electronic quality, to wide-gap insulators such as boron-nitride monolayers that can serve as atomically-thin tunnel barriers.This library of two-dimensional crystals opens a possibility to construct various 3D structures with on-demand properties, which do not exist in nature but can be assembled in Lego style by stacking individual atomic planes on top of each other in a desired sequence. This project is to explore this new avenue.We will design, fabricate and study multilayer materials ranging from basic heterostructures that consist of a few alternating layers of graphene and boron nitride and already exhibit a rich spectrum of new phenomena, as recently demonstrated by the applicant’s group, to complex artificial materials containing many layers of different 2D crystals and mimicking, for example, layered superconductors. In a similar manner, various electronic, optoelectronic, micromechanical and other devices will be developed and investigated. The applicant’s aim is to search for new materials with unique properties, novel devices with better characteristics and new physics that is likely to emerge along the way.The proposed research offers many exciting opportunities and can lead to the development of a large unexplored field with impact exceeding even that of graphene research. This presents a unique, once-in-decade, opportunity to make a very significant breakthrough in condensed matter physics and materials science.""

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Vaccines and Infectious Diseases in the Ageing PopuLation' (VITAL), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Today’s major challenge is to improve efficacy of vaccines to protect the growing ageing population against infectious diseases (ID). The VITAL project aims to address this challenge by assessing the ID burden and mechanisms of immunosenescence to provide evidence-based knowledge on vaccination strategies to establish healthy ageing. Links with existing projects containing data sources combined with novel data acquired through our extensive networkof data registries across Europe will result in a database of epidemiology, risk factors and burden of disease of both vaccine-preventable (VP) and potential vaccine-preventable ID. Crucial knowledge on factors that hamper immune responsiveness and in-depth analyses of immune compartments involved in inducing effective immune responses to different vaccines in the ageing host will be gathered. We will identify novel predictive, potentially universal immune profiles of vaccine responses using novel technologies, unique experimental models and (infection) cohorts of elderly subjects in which (bio)markers of frailty have already been identified. Novel strategies to address the problem of immunosenescence will be tested, in particular whether vaccination of middle-aged individuals can maintain proper memory immune responses in the elderly, to improve memory immunity before reaching old age. Using data on epidemiology of VPID and immune responsiveness, novel agent-based models will be developed to build a user- friendly tool to be used by health care professionals for optimal implementation of vaccination strategies for older people and to develop dissemination protocols for the obtained knowledge for the healthcare field. Finally, we will deliver a framework that forms the basis for designing, implementing and regularly updating v

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'To nap or not to nap? Why napping habits interfere with cognitive fitness in ageing' (COGNAP), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

All of us know of individuals who remain cognitively sharp at an advanced age. Identifying novel factors which associate with inter-individual variability in -and can be considered protective for- cognitive decline is a promising area in ageing research. Considering its strong implication in neuroprotective function, COGNAP predicts that variability in circadian rhythmicity explains a significant part of the age-related changes in human cognition. Circadian rhythms -one of the most fundamental processes of living organisms- are present throughout the nervous system and act on cognitive brain function. Circadian rhythms shape the temporal organization of sleep and wakefulness to achieve human diurnality, characterized by a consolidated bout of sleep during night-time and a continuous period of wakefulness during the day. Of prime importance is that the temporal organization of sleep and wakefulness evolves throughout the adult lifespan, leading to higher sleep-wake fragmentation with ageing. The increasing occurrence of daytime napping is the most visible manifestation of this fragmentation. Contrary to the common belief, napping stands as a health risk factor in seniors in epidemiological data. I posit that chronic napping in older people primarily reflects circadian disruption. Based on my preliminary findings, I predict that this disruption will lead to lower cognitive fitness. I further hypothesise that a re-stabilization of circadian sleep-wake organization through a nap prevention intervention will reduce age-related cognitive decline. Characterizing the link between cognitive ageing and the temporal distribution of sleep and wakefulness will not only bring ground-breaking advances at the scientific level, but is also timely in the ageing society.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Upgrading of cellulose fibers into porous materials' (BreadCell).

assistant: **Innovation**

The major challenge to reduce consequences of climate change, microplastic pollution and raw material shortages is to convert our economic system. We need to replace fossil-based resources by renewable ones, replace persistent materials by biodegradables while developing and employing environmentally friendly processing technologies to create safe products with minimum impact on the environment. A real impact on economy, society and ecology is only generated if the materials, processes and products to be replaced are in large scale. In BreadCell, we develop a radically new technology to produce porous lightweight low-density materials which are currently used in large scale industries and mainly consist of synthetic non-degradable polymers. BreadCell technology comprises a foaming process to create products relying on existing and new raw materials from pulping (cellulose, xylan), and to convert them to high value, lightweight, energy-absorbing and load-transferring composites such as in sports and safety components of cars. The whole process chain will be guided by safe-by-design principles to ensure the production of sustainable and inherently safe products. Today, the innovation capacity of European scientists and industry in the area of renewable materials makes them already the leading global players in the field. We will provide a scalable technology that will further support the European technological leadership in the area by cross-fertilization of different fields (pulp and paper, biotechnology, polymer technology, toxicity) while addressing needs of future materials.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'East-Asian Buddhism in Post-Apartheid South Africa'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Explorations of Buddhism in Africa are very few and have been so far conducted at the introductory level. Moreover, in the field of religious studies there is still a marked tendency to reduce the globalization of Buddhism to its worldwide missionary activities, and to neglect crucial factors such as the impact of deterritorialization and hybridization. BUDDHISMAFRICA aims to break new ground in this field of research by approaching these dynamics from an interdisciplinary perspective at the intersection of religious studies, sociology, anthropology, media studies, African studies, East Asian studies, gender studies, and global studies, as to provide for the first time a comprehensive and detailed analysis of East Asian Buddhism in South Africa, with a focus in the post-apartheid period (1994-present). BUDDHISMAFRICA has three research objectives, which will be pursued through ethnographic (participant observation, in-depth interviews) and archival research: 1) To analyze the trajectory of East Asian Buddhism in South Africa and its hybridization at the organizational/individual level. 2) To investigate the degree in which East Asian Buddhism has been able to reach out to black people, and to provide them with maps to navigate race and cultural identity. 3) To clarify the impact of informal spiritualities related to East Asian Buddhism on the South African religious context. BUDDHISMAFRICA will disseminate the research findings through peer-reviewed open-access publications (two articles and one monograph), an international workshop (and the publication of its proceedings), public talks for non-specialists, and project updates through the traditional/social media. Moreover, BUDDHISMAFRICA has put in place a detailed training program that is aimed, in collaboration with

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Advancing Behavioral and Cognitive Understanding of Speech' (ABACUS).

assistant: **Innovation**

I intend to investigate what cognitive mechanisms give us combinatorial speech. Combinatorial speech is the ability to make new words using pre-existing speech sounds. Humans are the only apes that can do this, yet we do not know how our brains do it, nor how exactly we differ from other apes. Using new experimental techniques to study human behavior and new computational techniques to model human cognition, I will find out how we deal with combinatorial speech.The experimental part will study individual and cultural learning. Experimental cultural learning is a new technique that simulates cultural evolution in the laboratory. Two types of cultural learning will be used: iterated learning, which simulates language transfer across generations, and social coordination,  which simulates emergence of norms in a language community. Using the two types of cultural learning together with individual learning experiments will help to zero in, from three angles, on how humans deal with combinatorial speech. In addition it will make a methodological contribution by comparing the strengths and weaknesses of the three methods.The computer modeling part will formalize hypotheses about how our brains deal with combinatorial speech. Two models will be built: a high-level model that will establish the basic algorithms with which combinatorial speech is learned and reproduced, and a neural model that will establish in more detail how the algorithms are implemented in the brain. In addition, the models, through increasing understanding of how humans deal with speech, will help bridge the performance gap between human and computer speech recognition.The project will advance science in four ways: it will provide insight into how our unique ability for using combinatorial speech works, it w

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Novel aircraft de-icing concept based on smart coatings with electro-thermal system'.

assistant: **Concept**

Objective of ICECOAT project is to minimise the run-back icing over the natural laminar flow (NLF) wing surface by optimising the anti-icing coatings and electro-thermal de-icing system. This will help implement the laminar flow control technology currently investigated by Clean Sky Joint Undertaking. This objective will be tackled by a combination of four technical work packages, including Wettability and ice adhesion study (WP1), Development of smart anti-icing coatings (WP2), De-icing by electro-thermal system (WP3) and Validation of mixed strategies (WP4), together with Administrative work (WP0) and Dissemination/exploitation (WP5). The proposed work will be carried out by advancing our understanding of the heat transfer processes that determine runback icing accretion by fully considering the influence of both trapped air pockets and water within the developing ice matrix. We will also select and/or develop new types of coating matrices, new nanoparticles for nanocomposites, and new method for coating surface modification to produce anti-icing coating with higher hardness and erosion resistance. These new anti-icing coatings are tested in conjunction with an electro-thermal de-icing system, which will be optimised for its location over the wing. Pulsing operation of deicing system will also be tested to minimise the occurrence of run-back icing. Finally, the effect of laminar-to-turbulent transition of the boundary layer over the wing surface on the behaviour of run-back icing will be investigated in an icing wind tunnel.

user: Describe how 'Neuro-encoded electronic skin' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Electronic skin (e-skin) is a fast-emerging soft system to provide tactile sensations like our own skin. However, most of the prototypes today focus on the integration of various sensors on flexible substrates, which can hardly be integrated neurologically onto biological systems nor used over a large area as sensing components for robots: this is mainly because of their mismatch in various aspects including mechanical softness, computing/encoding capability, power consumption.This proposal aims to bring a step-change by developing an e-skin truly rooted in biological systems: the proposed e-Skin will respond to external stimuli (e.g., force) and encode the sensory information in the form of action potentials, just as the biological systems (i.e., sensory neurons) do. This will be achieved by innovative fabrication of neuron circuit arrays over a large area using nanomaterials, and further interfaced with tactile sensors, all on the soft substrate.Such “bio-like” localised processing, offered by the soft system, greatly decreases the latency of the sensory data, necessary for the upscaling of the sensing pixels to achieve human-level tactile sensation. Furthermore, this paves the way for the interfacing between soft electronics and biology, triggering transformations in the next generation of neurorobotics, neuroprosthesis and interactive systems.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Advances in European Chemistry Research the R&D for the 21St Century By Younger Researchers From University Industrial the National Laboratories' to be submitted under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main objective of this proposal for a series of EPHDCONF meetings is to bring younger researchers working in applied chemical science, engineering and technology in University, Industrial and National Laboratories together in a high profile European forum and to encourage interaction, networking and greater communication. Greater mobility, new projects and collaborations and greater European awareness and union are expected to result. This can only be beneficial for the future cohesion and scientific and industrial leadership of Europe. Chemical science, engineering and technology will be interpreted broadly e.g. as represented by the Subject Group structure of the Society of Chemical Industry (SCI) and so the meeting will be truly multi-disciplinary.Some emphasis will also be paid to recruiting participants representing industrial R&D priorities as recently recognised by CEFIC. Participants will be sought in the age range 21 to 35 years of age thus representing various career levels/attainments and working in Research and R&D where there is clear relevance to chemical and pharmaceutical industry - so not only Chemistry but aspects of the Bio-sciences, Physics, Engineering will be covered. The main aspects of the day will be Posters and Keynote/Short Talks by the participants. Prizes will be available for the best work. Another important factor will be associating each EPHDCONF with two high profile meetings of the SCI - the oldest learned society in the world associated with the industry i.e. having the EPHDCONF meetings at the same time and in close conjunction with the Society's AGM/Annual Meeting (always held in early July in London) and its European Chemical Industry Annual Meeting -- ECIAM (always held in early October in Europe). In this way, younger research

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Innovation, information flows and initial public offerings'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Research objectives and content: To understand the role of equity financing in fostering entrepreneurial activity, this research proposes to analyse initial public offerings (IPO). The current research into the timing of IPOs either focues on changes in the structure of corporate governance which is effected by the IPO or on the strategic use of information during an IPO. However, the state of the literature on this topic lays bare that the theoretical approaches undertaken largely neglect to consider the firm in an industry setting. In particular, given the importance of control rights attached to an equity contract, their value should depend on the stage of development of the industry and the exisitence of potential competitors which might use these rights as an external control device. Furthermore, the availability of information on a firm planning a flotation should depend on the overall information available on the industry and the number of rival firms already listed on a security exchange. While these are important theoretical additions, it also is necessary to advance the empirical work in this area. Promising avenues of further research include the link between IPOs and patents as well as an examination of clustering of IPOs by indstry. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact): I expect to benefit from the research project in two ways: first, I would like to enhance my modelling skills of economic relationships (signalling equilibria, game-theoretic modelling of industry interaction) and, secondly, I would like to acquire more expertise in econometrics both in the cross-section and time-series domains.
