user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Mobilising investments for protecting and restoring biodiversity by harnessing innovative financial solutions and advanced geospatial analytics' under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Concept**

Biodiversity protection and restoration are critical for maintaining the ecological balance and ensuring the planet's sustainability. In the absence of sustainable management and protection of natural resources, the negative impacts of climate change and other environmental issues will only increase. Private investment can be a critical tool that has the potential to play a transformative role in financing conservation and restoration efforts, as public financing alone may be insufficient to address the scale of these challenges. By activating innovative sustainable finance solutions and incorporating technological advances within the field of geospatial analytics, the project can attract private investment in a way that benefits the environment and secures investors’ confidence.BIO-CAPITAL project is going to develop and implement an interdisciplinary research and innovation endeavour by combining actions in the three fields of (i) Biodiversity protection and restoration, (ii) biodiversity-friendly Financing mechanisms and (iii) advanced Space Technology. The implementation will involve three key steps to leverage innovation.  First, BIO-CAPITAL will analyse, understand and learn from UCs. Second, it will elaborate, monitor, and demonstrate through UCs.  Finally, it will co-develop, implement and amplify back to the UCs. BIO-CAPITAL will  engage stakeholders through iterative processes, in order to reach shared views on the aforementioned three stages and how they can be effectively combined to increase financial flows for biodiversity protection, restoration and sustainable utilisation.

user: Describe how 'Automatic Tool For Insertion And Simulation Of Fault Tolerant Architectures' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Fault-Tolerant circuits are currently required in several major application sectors. Although the particular circuit structures that allow the building of an FT circuit have been studied in the past, currently there is a lack of CAD support in the design and evaluation of FT circuits. As a consequence, these tasks have to be carried out manually and result in reduced productivity, reliability and efficiency. The aim of the AMATISTA project is to develop a set of tools devoted to the design of FT digital circuits. The toolset is composed of: an automatic FT insertion tool and a simulation tool to validate the FT designs. The toolset will take a technology-independent approach based on RT-level VHDL. It will be first integrated in the current design flow of automotive and aerospace companies. The quantitative and qualitative results of this project will be illustrated by two industrial demonstrations in the areas mentioned above.Objectives:The primary objective of project AMATISTA is to provide a modern solution to the design of fault-tolerant circuits. This solution is aimed at improving the design flow for this type of circuits in order to achieve the following primary goals:Increase design productivityEnhance circuit reliability.Simplify introduction of the technology into current design environments.To achieve these goals, the project focuses on delivering a commercial fault-tolerant design toolset that will consists of:An automatic fault tolerant insertion tool.A simulation tool to validate the fault-tolerance of the designs.The toolset will be integrated in the current fault tolerant design flow of two industrial companies (from the automotive and aerospace sectors). By using some real applications, the new design flows will be explored, and analysed quantitatively

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'The molecular mechanism behind the axonal initial segment diffusion barrier' (NEUROSMLM) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Polarization is a decisive step in neuronal development and once axonal and somatodendritic domains are generated, they generally persist over the lifetime of an organism. The axonal initial segment (AIS), a stretch of 50 – 100 µm length close to the cell body, bears a specialized cytoskeleton and maintains the polarized distribution of neuronal molecules by blocking the exchange of molecules between axon and soma. The adaptor protein ankyrinG is essential for the assembly of this diffusion barrier and crosslinks ion channels and adhesion molecules to the cytoskeleton. However, the molecular mechanism for the obstruction of molecular diffusion across the AIS remains unclear. Recent insights revealed an ordered arrangement of the cytoskeleton not only in the AIS but also further down the axon, raising the question, how the nanoscopic organization of cytoskeletal molecules in the AIS may directly influence the lateral motion of membrane molecules. Here we aim to use novel single-molecule localization-based superresolution microscopy in primary hippocampal neurons to investigate the molecular architecture of the AIS and to understand the mechanism by which membrane protein diffusion is locally restricted. To do so, we will correlate membrane protein diffusion during neuronal polarization in single cells over time with the nanoscopic organization of the AIS. We hypothesize that a regularly spaced structure based on AnkyrinG specifically reduces membrane mobility in the AIS. Our results will clarify the molecular mechanism that controls the diffusion barrier at the AIS and contribute to our understanding of how neuronal polarity is achieved and more generally, how the membrane cytoskeleton organizes the plasma membrane.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Green BioReFarmeries - Small-scale Circular Green Biorefineries for increasing farmer sustainability and competitiveness and building resilient rural areas' (2021-2027) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Rural BioReFarmeries brings together farmers, industries and other partners across Europe, to demonstrate a farmer-centred bioeconomy model aimed at maximizing the potential of Europe’s vast grasslands. The project will demonstrate a novel small-scale, decentralized, rural green biorefinery value chain, which addresses the limitations of existing green biorefineries. This small-scale decentralized model places farmers at the centre of the biomass value creation close to their farms, allowing them to co-produce inputs for their farms, with additional high value-added intermediates and products, which will be further developed in collaboration with centralized facilities and downstream industry partners. The model provides a practical implementation of the bioeconomy among a large farmer cohort and builds on the existing farm enterprises and cooperative structures of our partners, enabling collaboration, scale-up, market access, and building synergies across primary and industrial sectors.  The project advances state-of-the-art for green biorefinery in terms of operational model, logistics, processing, product development and assessment methods, which collectively deliver a more sustainable and profitable model for farmers and rural communities. The model will serve as a blueprint for farmers to sustainably diversify into the bioeconomy, reducing their farm emissions while creating new products which displace unsustainable alternatives in a range of agri-food markets. Rural BioReFarmeries model will be replicated to diverse regions of Europe, supported by the development of inclusive business models and hands-on training among multi-actor groups and communities in regions of high potential. The project represents a highly replicable model for Europe’s abundant grasslands,

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Closing the Gaps between the Researchers and the Large Public' (2007-2013) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

In line with the objectives of the Researchers’ Nights of enhancing large public recognition of researchers as well as their role in society and within citizens’ daily life, the MultiCulti Science project aims at creating a ‘multidisciplinary platform’ to give the general public, especially young people, the opportunity to meet researchers within a fun and unique context. The main strategic objectives of the project are to: - establish a ‘face-to-face platform’ to communicate scientific issues by bringing together at least 35 researchers from several areas and 2000 people allowing them to interact directly; - foster close, informal and creative dialogue between researchers and the public at large, by organising 3 Cafes Scientifiques; - give researchers the opportunity to show the two sides of their lives, through photo exhibitions showing their professional activities and personal interests; - give researchers and the general public the chance to ‘communicate outside the usual labs, through the organisation of multiple activities such as cocktail demonstrations or karaoke sessions;   - foster the embarkation of young people on scientific careers by allowing them to ‘touch’ science through multiple hands-on experiments and demos; - give participants the opportunity to get to know more deeply the scientific  panorama in Portugal and Europe through several informal, thematic workshops. The consortium of this initiative was built taking into account the experience and ability of each partner to accomplish the objectives above. The consortium is made of one Innovation Agency with large experience in cooperating with and involving SME and universities in RTD activities, one renowned Congress Centre with large experience in organizing large scale events addressed to a large nu

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Cultivating hope one star sperm at a time' (Spermotile) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

The Spermotile project addresses the growing issue of male infertility, which affects approximately 1 in 6 couples globally. Male infertility is responsible for 40% of fertility challenges and has been increasingly prevalent due to various environmental, genetic, and lifestyle factors. Assisted Reproduction Technologies (ARTs) such as Intrauterine Insemination (IUI), In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) rely on high-quality sperm selection to maximize fertility success. However, current sperm selection techniques are manual, low-throughput, and often subjective, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs.Spermotile offers a breakthrough solution for ART through an automated, AI-driven platform that integrates three key technologies: stain-free optical microscopy, a Computer-Assisted Semen Analysis (CASA) engine powered by trustworthy AI, and a novel ActiveFilter microfluidic chip. The system selects and collects the highest quality ""star sperm"" for use in ART procedures. This selection process is performed with high throughput, minimal manual input, and without damaging sperm quality, significantly improving the efficiency and outcomes of fertility treatments.Spermotile integrates easily into clinical workflows, adding just 30 minutes and minimal technician time. It improves ART success rates by up to 12%, reduces the number of cycles needed, boosts clinic throughput fivefold, and lowers costs for both patients and clinics.Spermotile builds on prior European projects, including MUSICAL, 3D-nanoMorph, and ERC PoC-funded Spermotile. Aiming for TRL 6 and EU regulatory approval by 2027, it holds three pending patents and a growing IP portfolio, positioning it for commercialization.By addressing SDGs 3.7 and 5.6, it also minimizes en

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Efficient Aluminium Salt cake Recycling Technology' (AluSalt) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Aluminium is the world’s second most used metal.  During aluminium extraction and recycling, salt slag is generated in vast volume and is a growing environmental problem. In Europe there are >270 known aluminium processing plants and only nine salt slag recycling facilities, this number is restricted due to economic viability of operation; there are very high initial capital cost and high operating costs. These costs create a high entry barrier for any new company to enter into the salt recycling business. EU countries such as Scandinavia and Eastern Europe transport many thousands of tonnes of salt slag p.a. thousands of kilometres for processing at the few locations available at enormous financial and environmental cost.This is a threat to the aluminium production industry as costs to process salt slag are becoming extremely high.  Due to the monopolisation of re-processing options, it is a financial security issue for the aluminium recyclers as they are in the hands of the nine salt slag recyclers in operation. This highlights an industry need for aluminium recycling companies to manage in house all of their by-products and waste materials economically.ALTEK is a technology-based company with specialist expertise and experience in aluminium technology.  With EC FP7 funding support, ALTEK have developed to TRL 6, ALUSALT, an in-house salt slag processing unit that offers aluminium recycling plants an economic solution to salt slag processing, reducing energy process requirements,  transport costs and CO2 emissions. ALUSALT offers the industry a solution that complies with EU legislation, reduces environmental impact and can achieve cost savings of €1.95m p.a. (based on a 10,000 tonnes p.a salt slag producer). It is envisaged ALUSALT will revolutionise the industry sav

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Preservation towards storage and access. Standardised Practices for Audiovisual Contents Archiving in Europe' in the context of a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The objective of the project is to provide technical devices and systems for digital preservation of all types ofaudio-visual collections. The aim is to build-up preservation factories providing affordable services to all kinds ofcollections owners to manage and distribute their assets.The 20th Century was the first with an audiovisual record. Audiovisual media became the new form of culturalexpression. These historical, cultural and commercial assets are now entirely at risk from deterioration.Broadcasters have begun to digitise their large holdings, at high cost and using complex technology.The preservation factory approach aims for an integrated automated solution of sufficient low cost so that thesmall-to-medium collections can be saved through common standardised services.The way to achieve this goal is an integrated approach, to produce sustainable assets with easy access forlarger exploitation and distribution. The key idea is: an accessible item is more valuable than an item stuck on ashelf. Integrated process provides this access, releasing the value that funds the activity.Previous EC Projects like PRESTO demonstrated that saving 50% of preservation work can be achieved.Access requirements include: digitisation in item-sized chunks with item-level metadata, with rights clearanceand rights management, restoration of quality where needed, and effective delivery systems for commercial andpublic access. There are unsolved problems of digitisation, automation, metadata extraction, storage, networkbandwidth, secure interaction, access and end-user delivery. Partial solutions exist, but in general they are notrobust, scaleable or affordable - and definitely not integrated end-to-end within a sustainable commercial model.PRESTOSPACE will push the limits of the current

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Language contact in the eastern Mediterranean in the Late Middle Ages : Greek in a multilingual society'.

assistant: **Concept**

The project aims to investigate the extent of language contact in the eastern Mediterranean in the Late Middle Ages (13th – 17th c.).It focuses on Medieval Greek,which became a locus point of multilingualism,because of the socio-political environment,i.e. the contact between Greek- and Romance-speaking populations developed in large parts of eastern Mediterranean after the fall of Constantinople to the Franks (1204).Consequently,the main emphasis of the investigation will be placed on language contact phenomena between Greek and Romance languages,as manifested predominantly in Greek.The project aspires not only to describe developments of Greek,but also to determine the wider language contact situation.It comes to address a long awaited desideratum of the relevant research,since the issue of multilingualism in the medieval Mediterranean has only been examined in relation to the notorious ‘lingua franca’ and the various loanwords incorporated into different languages,while the proposed research focuses instead on the almost totally unexplored morphosyntactic level.The research will be carried out on the basis of a corpus compiled of literary and non-literary texts (the latter mostly unknown to the linguistic research so far) written in Greek,with a view to control for the register factor on the data evaluation.The philological expertise necessary for the examination of the texts and their authors,as well as the essential knowledge of the socio-political environment in which the texts were produced speak for the multidisciplinary character of the project,even beyond the linguistic borders.The examination of language contact in such a multi-ethnic environment can become relevant for the current political state of affairs,because of the mobility of the population in EU;the
