user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Toward monolithic CMOS based neural probes for stable chronic recording and brain machine interfaces'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The recent advent of active high-density implantable neural probes based on CMOS technology is a big leap forward in neuroscience. Unprecedentedly, these new probes provide simultaneous access to several thousands of single-neurons in different brain circuits. Although realized with different circuit’s architectures, such devices combine the use of standard CMOS and MEMS technologies to realize monolithic active dense probes that integrate into the same substrate hundreds of closely spaced microelectrodes together with electronic circuits for recording extracellular bioelectrical signals. However, despite their unique value, current CMOS-probes are not yet adapted for chronically stable implants and this is a major drawback both for neuroscience research as well as for growing potential clinical applications in fields such as brain-machine-interfaces or neuroprosthetics.An emerging hypothesis to minimize tissue-reactions and improve chronic stability of implantable probes consists in downscaling the cross-sectional sizes of their shafts as well as the overall system size. This fellowship proposes a deep study of this hypothesis by exploiting key advantages of monolithic CMOS based neural probes together with the optimization of circuits, materials and microfabrication processes. I will exploit my background in MEMs technologies and acquire new expertise in neuroscience to evaluate solutions for reducing CMOS shanks dimensions (20-80 µm width, 15-30 µm thick), strategies to improve tissue-materials interfaces, and to assess the effects of these features on brain tissue responses and recording performances. This will lead to ChroMOS probes with a very thin and uniform width (tens of microns) through all the shaft, and with electrode densities up to 1000 sites/mm2. This ca

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Self-reconfiguration of a robotic workcell for the recycling of electronic waste'.

assistant: **Concept**

Currently industrial robots perform rigidly programmed tasks in highly-constrained settings. Any change in product or process requires costly restructuring of hardware and software. ReconCycle will address these issues by introducing the concept of robotic self-reconfiguration in the largely unconstrained domain of electronic waste recycling, which is still dominated by manual labor. Automation in this sector can benefit from the fact that very large batches of the same device type are to be processed but with some model differences and showing different states of damage. To be able to deal with each of these individual models, the robotic system requires flexible adaptation. Thus, the scientific objective of ReconCycle is to introduce in this sector self-reconfigurable hardware and software based on a reconfigurable robotic cell developed in a previous project. A two-step procedure is foreseen: When changing from one device-type to another, reconfiguration shall be performed in an interactive mode, where the application-engineer will be able to provide input. But, when changing from one device-model to another within a given device-type, the cell shall perform re-configuration on its own through a combination of sensorimotor learning approaches and other AI techniques. This constitutes the main novel scientific contributions of ReconCycle and is aimed at advancing our understanding of robotic perception-action processes in unconstrained industrial settings. We will use highly compliant soft robots and end-effectors, allowing humans to operate together with the machines to complete any missing steps. This reduces automation complexity and brings this project into a feasible regime for up to TRL 6. Electronic waste recycling is an important and strongly growing economic

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Governance and Agents in Institutional Architecture on Climate and Energy' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The proposed project is aiming at drawing a clear map of the effectiveness of various ongoing initiatives on climate change and energy issues, within and outside the UN framework, by focusing on governance functions and actors performing the functions, including nation states, business and industry, NGOs, scientific networks and international organizations. It further develops scenarios on mid- to long- term institutional architectures on climate and energy in view of reaching an emerging global consensus on halving global GHG emissions by 2050, and to evaluate the scenarios in terms of the amount of GHG emission reductions and their paths. In other words, this project will work on emission differentiations by using differentiation models developed through political scientific institutional scenario-making. Through this exercise, which required inter-disciplinary collaboration with emission-reduction model, environmental effectiveness of the institutions will be evaluated in comparable way. This is one of the challenges of the GAIA project, which lies in bridging the gap between studies on institutional architecture in terms of political scientific analysis and social economic and engineering models on GHG emissions reductions towards low carbon society. The project has a strong policy-orientation in Europe and Japan, both of which are the key actors in the negotiation processes on post 2012 institutional architecture on climate change as well as implementation of the Kyoto Protocol. Therefore, the results of the project, by presenting ways to enhance and link ongoing initiatives and to evaluate environmental effectiveness of them, are expected to give impacts on the actual design of post 2012 mid- to long-term institutional architecture on climate change and energy, le

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon Europe proposal for the project 'The effectiveness of nitrogen and phosphorus load reduction measures from source to sea, considering the effects of climate change'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The central aim of the proposed Source to Sea (NAPSEA) CSA is to support national and local authorities in selecting effective nutrient load reduction measures and to gain political support for the implementation. The consortium partners have been closely involved in applied research and implementation of nutrient reduction measures at local, national and European level. In NAPSEA the current challenges to reduce nutrient pollution, eutrophication and its negative impacts on inland and coastal waters and their ecosystem services will be addressed by an integrated approach addressing nutrient pollution from river source to sea, using the Rhine and Elbe Rivers-North Sea coastal system as case study and integrating three complementary perspectives: governance, nutrient pathways & measures, and ecosystem health. Each of these perspectives provide an essential part of the solution to achieving a healthy ecosystem with measures that are societally acceptable and cost-effective. We will identify options to reach a harmonized approach in nutrient reduction measures across different geographical areas and policy frameworks (governance), select and evaluate nutrient reduction scenarios with an integrated modelling framework from source to sea (nutrient pathways) and define safe ecological boundaries for different types of ecosystems along the continuum from catchment to coast (ecosystem health). NAPSEA will showcase the best practices and consider obstacles on the implementation of socially acceptable, sustainable and effective measures for several local case studies within this geographical scope, also taking into account effects of climate change. These case studies accommodate the variability in potential threats of eutrophication as well as feasibility, effectiveness and impl

assistant: **Concept**

The overall aim of the CEOSeR project is to upgrade the research and innovation capacity at the Department of Organic Technology, Kaunas University of Technology (DOT-KTU) to the highest European level in organic semiconductor research. DOT-KTU’s existing scientific expertise and facilities will be further developed through a range of capacity building activities derived from DOT-KTU’s SWOT analysis. The activities will increase DOT-KTU’s strength and visibility in the most advanced topics of organic technology: A) Electroactive low-molar-mass materials for OLAE technologies and B) Polymeric and dendritic materials for OLAE technologies. Central to the activities are twinning partnerships with five specialist research organisations: Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, University of Cergy-Pontoise, Technische Universität Dresden and Novaled AG. DOT-KTU will increase its human potential by hiring experienced researchers, an IP Manager and an Innovation Manager and organising know-how exchanges and trainings for existing and new staff with twinning partners. DOT-KTU will increase its technology potential by upgrading and purchasing new equipment including an FTIR ATR spectrometer, differential photocalorimeter, liquid chromatography system, dielectric spectrometer and photoelectron spectrometer. To ensure its research quality and innovation capability, DOT-KTU will be ex-post evaluated by a team of international, independent experts.

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Tephra dispersal as an indicator of climate variability in the North Atlantic' (1994-1998).

assistant: **Concept**

Research objectives and content Distribution of volcaniclastic material in deep-sea sediments around Iceland is influenced by eruption processes and climate variability in the North Atlantic region. Drilling during Leg 162 of the Ocean Drilling Program recovered numerous well preserved volcaniclastic layers which are derived from fallout from large explosive eruptions, and from catastrophic glacier floods occurring m Iceland. Sedimentological and chemical analysys of these volcaniclastic deposits will be carried out in order to understand the processes and factors controlling their distribution. They are expected to provide an excellent record of the source and timing of major Cenozoic explosive eruptions that have occurred in this region. In addition, we anticipate that the glaciation and resulting climate variability in high northern latitudes may have influenced their mode of dispersal in the atmospheric and oceanic environment, by fallout, ice-rafting and turbidity currents. Traimng content (objective, benefit and expected impact) The collaboration with scientists from GEOMAR should bring a new approach to the study and interpretation of the sources and depositional environments of volcaniclastic sediment that are influenced by climate variability. The results wi]l be critical to the evaluation of global volcanism in the North Atlantic region, and should complement other studies of eolian and deep-sea transport of terrigenous sediments which are underway.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Scanning Tunneling Microscopy studies of nanowires and nanoswitches built from organic molecules'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The fabrication of conventional microchips is today close to reaching its lower limits concerning the possible minimization of electric circuits by standard lithographic methods on silicon, a fact referred to as \andquot; the end of the silicon road\unquote; To further decrease the size of microelectronic circuits and therewith increase the density of logicalunits per chip new ways have to be found to build smaller devices. The greatest prospect for succeeding in this task lies in Nan electronics, where the basic logical units are formed of scale-scale objects. One possibility is tousle-interconnected molecules adsorbed on surfaces for such nanodevices. Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy and Scanning Tunnelling Spectroscopy at low temperature will be performed inorganic molecules to better understand their arrangement on the surface, possible template creation and the connection to the surface as well as the conduction through the molecule when assembled into nanowires. Furthermore, vibration spectroscopy shall be used to investigate the switching behaviour of molecules and allow better judgement whether they are suited for future electronic components. Nanoscience is a young and very promising field due to the expected future applications in Nan technology. The shaping of these research fields is a great challenge both to the European Community, which assumes coordinating role, and the individual researcher, who works at the frontier of current knowledge. After the two years of the proposed project, the expertise in Nan science of the research fellow will be greatly expanded, leaving her with bright prospects for a future career. The new input that parties, host and researcher, will gain from each other will be stimulating to the advancement of the field.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Artificial Fish Locomotion and Sensing' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The overall aim of FILOSE is acquiring a deeper understanding of the principles underlying fish locomotion and sensing, in order to develop new technologies for underwater vehicles on the basis of  biological evidence. More specifically, FILOSE focuses on shedding light on how fish exploit lateral line sensing in underwater environments. The lateral line provides fish with the ability to detect hydrodynamic patterns in the surrounding environment, thereby playing a key role in adapting to environmental changes. FILOSEs main goals are captured by the following objectives: 1. investigate fish locomotion in a controlled hydrodynamic environment, in particular addressing the issue of how fish react to changes in hydrodynamic patterns; 2. develop a novel mechanical design of an underwater fish robot, characterized by high maneuverability and low complexity; 3. develop a MEMS-based artificial lateral line; 4. develop a control method for the artificial fish, aimed at reproducing locomotion patterns found in biological fish and based on a central pattern generator (CPG); 5. develop a method to characterize and classify hydrodynamic images, making use of a  mechanosensory array; 6. develop a classification method to couple detected hydrodynamic events with locomotion patterns found in biological fish; 7. conduct comparative experiments in a controlled hydrodynamic environment to assess behaviour of an artificial fish equipped with artificial lateral line sensing with respect to the behaviour of a biological fish. We believe that the proposed investigations are key to building underwater robots that improve on the existing by exhibiting a greater degree of autonomy, adaptability to environmental changes, maneuverability, stability and overall lower complexity, as well as moving

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Dualities between gauge theory and string theory' (DUALDUAL) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The project aims to give the researcher (Smedbäck) a strong research experience at the outgoing host (Princeton University), which is then to be applied in the return host (Uppsala University).The main research objective of the project 'Dualities between gauge theory and string theory' is to work on extensions of the AdS/CFT duality. This is a manifestation of the so-called holographic duality, which occurs in string theory, which is the leading framework for uniting the physical description of all fundamental forces.This is a project, which suits and will evolve both Smedbäck and the host institutes. The project also aims to train Smedbäck's basic research abilities and his communications skills, to interact with other top-level scientists (through meetings, seminars and presentations).Training in project management and development of leadership skills are also included in the project (by assignment of responsibilities to the researcher), as well as pedagogical training (by teaching duties during return phase).To make sure the objectives are met, guidance, mentoring and an individual training programme supported by people at both hosts have been set up.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Engineering the protein corona on RNA nanoparticles for improved nucleic acids-based therapies delivery'.

assistant: **Innovation**

In the past three decades, nanomedicine has emerged as a promising strategy in cancer treatment and has led to numerous proposed drug delivery systems. Nanoparticles aim to improve selectivity towards cancer cells while reducing off-target effects and toxicity towards normal cells. Among these systems, self-assembled RNA nanoparticles have been of great interest for drug delivery, because of their low cost, high yielding assembly and retained functionality. Yet, challenges such as poor nuclease resistance, biodistribution and cellular delivery remains to be addressed, to fully propels these structures towards clinical applications. To optimize these systems, there is a huge need to understand precisely their interactions with biological components. In particular, upon injection in vivo, it is known that serum proteins adsorb on nanoparticles. The composition of this so-called protein-corona on RNA particles remains fully unexplored. Herein, I propose to characterize the protein corona on RNA nanoparticles using state-of-the-art methodologies (proteomics, super-resolution microscopy, SELEX), as well as understand the role the corona on the fate of RNA structures. I will engineer the protein corona to improve biological outcomes of RNA particles, previously developed by Sixfold Bioscience Ltd. Overall, the project aims at providing tools and rules for rational engineering of the protein corona. In the long term, the project, grouping experts in industry and in academia, aims towards the development of a preclinical candidate, as well as answering fundamental questions on nanoparticles delivery.
