user: Describe how 'Establishing the Center for Environmental and Technology Ethics - Prague' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The ethical challenges posed by emerging technologies and climate change have been critically examined by ethicists in newly founded research centres all around the developed world. Yet, there is no comparable research program in the Czech Republic, and only a few relevant research initiatives in the entire CEE region. The ERA Chair position held by Prof. Mark Coeckelbergh, one of the most prolific and innovative authors in philosophy of technology and environment, will help to remedy this situation by establishing an internationally excellent research center for environmental and technology ethics at the Institute of Philosophy (IP), the largest humanities institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences. The center will contribute to advancing state-of-the-art knowledge in environmental and technology ethics, in particular by focusing on issues that are globally under-researched, and/or imperative in the CEE region. At the same time the project will enable the IP to implement a set of organisational measures and structural changes, in particular in the areas of HR, international grant support, research management and institutional culture. With massive support from the IP management, planned and realised in cooperation with the ERA Chair holder, these changes will improve the international visibility of the IP, helping it to both succeed in competing for EU research funds and better integrate the IP into the European research landscape. By deploying smart means of approaching diverse target groups, this project aims to overcome the existing barriers between the general public, concerned stakeholders and the IP’s research community, as well as facilitate the flow of expert ethical opinions in the wider societal debate. In its long-term impact, this project shall contribute t

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Development of alternatives to methyl bromide for the disinfestation of horticultural and forestry products' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

The objectives of this proposal are to develop new and alternative plant health quarantine treatments in the face of: 1. Restrictions on the use of methyl bromide.2. The continuing threat of new pest species being introduced to and distribute around the European Union. 3. Strict phytosanitary requirements demanded by third countries restricting the export of material from the European Union (EU).  Fumigation with methyl bromide (mebr) is one of the most widely used methods of disinfesting a range of plants and plant (including timber) products but recent concerns over its role as an ozone depleting chemical have resulted in its listing under the Montreal Protocol. Consequently, international restrictions are now being placed on its use. Nevertheless, international phytosanitary legislation in the EU and elsewhere requires that plant material be free of dangerous pests and diseases, thus requiring that effective treatments should be available. The project will, therefore, investigate the efficacy of alternatives to the use of mebr for quarantine treatments and attempt to develop commercially viable treatments for a number of commodities and pests that are of particular concern to EU member states. The project will concentrate on the two extremes of, on the one hand, live perishable products, predominantly of horticultural origin and on the other hand, timber and timber products, thus providing a wide range of potential applications for alternative treatments. Specifically, the proposed treatment regimes are: Heat Treatments, Composting, Hot Water Dips, Controlled Atmospheres, Fumigants other than mebr and Combinations of the above. Some or all of these will be tested against Timber, Woody Ornamentals, Propagation Material and Cut Flowers. The aims of the project will be

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Biophysical studies of calmodulin-target interactions' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Innovation**

Research objectives and content The objective of the project is to devise new optical spectroscopic methods for characterising the molecular mechanism of the interaction of calmodulin with its target sequences and for studying the conformation of calmodulin when bound to different target enzymes. Calmodulin activates many enzymes in a calcium dependent process, and is the link: between changes in intracellular calcium concentration and the activation of specific enzymic processes. The project aims to study and extend existing biophysical methods (which have used complexes of calmodulin with peptides of defined sequence) to study calmodulin-enzyme interactions. This will involve the thermodynamic characterisation of calmodulin-peptide complex formation, design and expression of calmodulin mutants, studies of their conformation and stability, preparation of suitable fluorescent and phosphorescent calmodulin derivatives, and studies of the complexes with peptides and enzymes involving potentially different modes of calmodulin binding. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) The project will allow the candidate to carry out a PhD programme and to widen the competence acquired with the Italian degree. In particular, the candidate will extend her knowledge of problems like protein structure and stability, and the relationship between protein functions and conformations. She will also gain wider laboratory experience in biophysical and spectroscopic methods, and she will learn useful biochemical and molecular biology techniques important for further research in biophysical studies on proteins.

user: Describe how 'Fiction, Literature, Indigenous Storytelling and History' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

This project explores the unique potential of historical fiction as a transformative method to create counter-representations ofIndigenous peoples in Brazil, where they are often seen as inferior and savage because of their close connection to nature. Thesestereotypes, spread by European colonisers through literature and historiography, have become ingrained in collective sensibilitiesand are currently used to justify racism against Indigenous peoples, the illegal occupation of their lands and the deforestation of theAmazon rainforest. Historiography has criticised these views, but due to its dominant epistemology, which relies firmly on writtenrecords, the field does not usually go beyond deconstructive ambitions. Indigenous ethnic groups, on the other hand, tend to pass ontheir histories orally, so their ecocultures and resistance to colonialism fall outside the lens of prevalent epistemology. The centralresearch question of this project is:How can historical fiction help us explore pluralistic views of the Indigenous pasts and open up new visions for a sustainable anddiverse future?Answering this question calls for innovative and interdisciplinary methods to achieve three goals: (1) to understand how Brazilianwriters have used historiography and fiction to represent Indigenous peoples in historical novels; (2) to identify how theepistemology of historiography constrains (or even silences) the writing of Indigenous historical fiction; (3) to develop a method ofcollective writing with Indigenous authors that allows us to co-create representations of their pasts and ecocultures. The projectdraws on Decolonial Studies, Theory of History and Literary Theory, and combines methods of discourse and intertextual analysis,qualitative interviews and collaborative writing with I

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Transformation des structures familiales et évolution des politiques sociales: les services à la petite enfance en europe comme services de cohésion sociale', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

In a context of changing family structure, improvement of female professional participation in the labour force, lack of socialisation of the most disadvantaged young children, creation of new jobs in care and personal social services, the different ways of child care services development in each European country is a key issue. This research proposal aims at achieving a comparative analysis of social policies in 8 European countries to understand how European Welfare regimes take into account social cohesion produced by childcare local services. Defining a common European typology of social policies related to innovation in the field of child care, assessing the social cohesion impact of these services throughout empirical cases studies and elaborating recommendations for policy makers will be the three main objectives of this research.

user: Describe how 'Fibre-delivered Laser Cutting Optimisation' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Fibre-delivered 1µm wavelength laser sources (i.e Yb-fibre and Yb:YAG disc) have the potential to revolutionise commercial laser cutting, which is currently dominated by CO2 lasers. Currently, 95% of lasers used in cutting applications are CO2 lasers, of which ~40% are used in Europe. The potential benefits of replacing CO2 lasers with new, 1µm wavelength fibre or disc lasers are significant, in terms of economy of operation, increased processing speed and reduced energy consumptionIt is generally accepted that fibre-delivered lasers are capable of cutting plate material up to 15mm in thickness. Compared with CO2 laser cutting, speeds up to 3 times faster are achievable with fibre-delivered lasers, for material thicknesses up to 3mm. Above this critical thickness, the end-user has to accept a significant reduction of the cutting speed and the cut quality. As a result, the potential benefits of fibre-delivered laser cutting are not being realised.The FILCO project will develop, for the first time, a laser process head specifically for cutting fibre-delivered laser sources. This cutting head will employ two major innovations.1. The first will involve new beam forming optics that will create uniform absorption of the incident laser light, by altering the angle of incidence of the laser beam with respect to that of the cutting front.2. The second will involve the development of special supersonic assist gas nozzles which will maximise removal of material from the smaller cutting kerfs possible with the highly focussed 1 micron laser light.With these advances coupled into a new cutting head, cutting performance better than that of a CO2 laser cutting system will be achieved for materials up to 15mm thick, in terms of both cut quality and process speed.

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'The Researchers’ Night 2010 in Norway' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The Researchers' Night coincides from the very start with the Norwegian Science Week, “Forskningsdagene” (this year 24th Sept– 3rd Oct 2010) of which it constitutes a particular momentum. The Research Council of Norway has successfully organised the Norwegian Researchers' Night project for the last five years, with events provided locally by subcontractors from the “Forskningsdagene” network selected after competition. This allows both events to benefit from synergies and complementarities, in particular regarding public awareness. The aim for this proposal is to continue the previous successes. “Forskningsdagene” is national, annual and well established. The events are well covered by media.The activities will take place from north to south in a total of 22 events in 20 locations. They will reach broad target groups and maintain an enjoyable and attractive range of activities that includes Researchers’ Idol competition, Researchers’ cruise with the Coastal Express and ”hands-on” experiments –  all featuring ”real research”. A European corner event will be set up in Bergen. Researchers will be “de-mystified"", their passion and fascination for research will be demonstrated in settings allowing direct involvement of the public with the researchers. Our objectives are to emphasize the importance of research, to increase the knowledge about researchers and their work, and involve the general public.The awareness campaigns with advertisements and material distributed and media coverage in the RN-2009-NOR were found to reach an estimated 15.7 mill and 5.7 mill people, respectively. In our population of 4.7 mill people, this indicates that few people “escaped” the RN campaign. The events attracted 5380 people. The RN 2010 project will follow the same lines. As we include seve

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Tree-based Ridge Extractor for image analysis' (T-REx).

assistant: **Innovation**

Accurate and reliable analyses of medical images have become a key step to determine the presence or severity of diseases, directly impacting the clinical care for patients. Among the numerous and various biomedical image analysis, the identification of blood vessels and the associated vascular trees is one of the most central topics for diagnosis of the coronary, lungs, liver, or retina, which require detection methods to assist physicians. Many such methods show intrinsic limitations due to the required pre-processing of the images, to the approach used, e.g. limited training databases, etc. Complex filamentary patterns, such as the vascular trees, are common and widely observed in geology, astrophysics, etc. In astrophysics, elongated structures made of the alignment of galaxies, called filaments of the cosmic web (CW), reveal the nature of matter in the Universe and the way it assembles over the ~14 billion years’ history of the cosmos. For these reasons, detecting CW filaments and studying them is an increasingly important topic in astrophysics and is one of the aims of the ERC-Advanced project ByoPiC (Baryon Picture of the Cosmos). This proposal is a direct offspring of ByoPiC. It is the first step of a multi-step technology transfer strategy which aims at transferring an innovative algorithm to detect filaments in the distribution of galaxies to the analysis of biomedical images, laying the ground for applications in scores of other domains, e.g., satellite imagery, geophysical tomographic data, engineering, etc.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Symbiotic bacteria in midges: understanding their role in determining vector competence and transmission of viruses' (MIDGESYM).

assistant: **Innovation**

The health of livestock is commonly impacted by viruses acquired from midge vectors. The viruses transferred following a midge bite cause considerable economic losses across the EU, making control of midges/midge vector competence a pressing concern. Recent research has indicated some inherited symbionts may alter the vector competence of their insect host, and thus represent viable means of interrupting pathogen transmission in natural populations. However, reduction of vector competence has only been considered for Wolbachia symbiont infections, and for viruses of importance to human health. Midges, in contrast, are commonly infected with a Cardinium heritable symbiont with unknown properties. This project seeks to establish tools for understanding this symbiont, and investigate whether it affects host immune system activity and vector competence following exposure to an infected blood meal. This proposal will thus provide both fundamental understanding of a poorly studied symbiont in an important host group, and, more practically, evaluate whether alteration of symbiont presence is a viable means of interrupting viral transmission.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'A European wide study on the clinical importance and genetic background of visual sensitivity', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Epilepsy is one of the biggest health economic burdens in the world, especially within the fields of mental health. In the modern environment (television and computer screens, videogames, TV commercials and high contrast patterns) exposure to visual stimul i is ever growing. In European countries, the prevalence of problems related to visual sensitivity is increasing seriously . Exchange of knowledge and training of (para)medics and lay people, including those that are commercially involved, will improve re cognition of the problems caused, and lead to improved preventive methods .To improve also our basic understanding of the underlying pathophysiology of brain processes the following clinical research projects are proposed:I. a. fMRI and EEG in visually sensitive patients b. Medical genetic studies in collaboration with centers in EU member states, associated states and non-EU countries. c. Influence of hormonal cycles on the visual sensitivity and seizures in women.II. Impact of ne w displays, videogames and other potentially provocative environmental visual stimuli in daily life, with the evaluation of non- pharmacological preventive measures.The results of these studies will greatly improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of brain processes and in general will help understanding other common brain diseases. The results can be directly applied to individuals and disseminated to professionals and lay people in Europe, thus contributing to better knowledge of visual stimulati on problems, prevention and treatment .

user: Describe how 'Biomass based energy intermediates boosting biofuel production' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Increasing the share of biomass for renewable energy in Europe demands conversion pathways which are economic, flexible in feedstock and energy efficient. The BioBoost project concentrates on dry and wet residual biomass and wastes as feedstock for de-central conversion by fast pyrolysis, catalytic pyrolysis and hydrothermal carbonisation to the intermediate energy carriers oil, coal or slurry. Based on straw the energy density increases from 2 to 20-31 GJ/m3, enabling central GW scale gasification plants for biofuel production. The catalytic pyrolysis reduces oxygenates in the oil to 13% enabling power and refinery applications. The fast pyrolysis and HTC processes of demo-size (0.5-1 t/h) are optimized for feedstock flexibility, yield, quality and further upscaling is studied. A logistic model for feedstock supply and connection of de-central with central conversion is set up and validated allowing the determination of costs, the number and location of de-central and central sites. Techno/economic and environmental assessment of the value chain supports the optimisation of products and processes. Application of energy carriers is investigated in existing and coming applications of heat and power production, synthetic fuels&chemicals and as biocrude for refineries. Promising pathways will be demonstrated over the whole chain. A market implementation scheme of ramping up energy carrier production and subsequent phase in of large scale gasification is developed regarding optimal technical and economic performance. Separation of nutrients and chemicals further increase economics.Seven industrial companies, three of which SME and six R&D institutions from 7 European countries cover expertise along the complete chain: Feedstock, conversion processes, separation and upgradin
