user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Significantly cheaper and cleaner energy from biomass combustion'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Energy from biomass is CO2 neutral, renewable and can be used in existing energy production plants.    But a new EU directive, designed to save some of the 420,000 lives lost every year to air pollution in the EU, means that today’s technologies cannot meet the demands by any other means than adding expensive emission reduction systems to their solutions. This will make energy from biomass more expensive, lead to higher energy bills for consumers and threatens to put the Commission’s entire renewable energy roadmap at risk.    Dall Energy has developed a new, disruptive biomass furnace that reduces dust and particle emissions by more than 90% and can easily meet the demands in the new directive, and offer a whole new set of other benefits: • 30% lower investment (much simpler design) • 50% lower maintenance costs (no technical difficulties, low power consumption)  • Very wide load window (fast and easy modulation between 10 and 100% load without problems) • Up to 40% reduction of fuel cost as the technology enables conversion of a wide range of low-value fuels such as wet biomass, organic waste streams, willow, etc. in the same furnace.   For Dall Energy, there is a market of 150-250 new plants and 130-170 replacement plants annually in EU-28 alone. By 2023, Dall Energy expects a turnover of €140m and 375 jobs created in-house, as well as 1,038 jobs with EU-based suppliers as a direct result of this project.   The expected outcomes are an adapted furnace design and a demonstrated and validated furnace with a French host, Dalkia, as the first international customer be serve as a foothold for international roll-out of the innovation.    The success criterion for Dall Energy is to be able to sell Dall Energy biomass systems on fully commercial terms across Europe when the

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Synthesis and characterization of NANOstructured materials with LumInescent properties for diaGnostic and tHerapeuTic applications' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The aim of the present project is to explore different synthesis strategies to obtain silicon nanocrystals and carbon nanodots with luminescent properties as alternative to conventional fluorescent biomarkers or other light-emitting semiconductor nanoparticles containing heavy metals known as quantum dots. Nanostructured silicon can provide appealing properties such as size and wavelength-dependent luminescence emission in the red/near infrared window, resistance to photobleaching, and robust surface chemistry for grafting of bio-molecules without incurring the burden of intrinsic toxicity or elemental scarcity of quantum dots. Carbon-based nanostructures with fluorescent properties remain relatively unexplored but similar behaviour and properties can be envisaged.The production of silicon nanocrystals will be approached by means of two different methods: i) thermal processing of silesquioxanes to produce an encapsulating oxide matrix for the silicon nanocrystals and ii) laser pyrolysis of silicon precursors either in gas phase or in the form of aerosols containing organometallic precursors. Both methods are quite novel and offer great possibilities for scaling up the batch production of silicon nanocrystals offered by current methodologies. Likewise, the synthesis of carbon nanodots will be explored by both thermal decomposition and laser ablation of carbon-containing precursors.To stabilize the nanoparticles and render them biocompatible for in vitro and in vivo diagnostic imaging experiments, different passivating and encapsulating agents like alkyl or alkoxy-groups and micelle-forming polymers and phospholipids will be evaluated. Finally, fluorescent labelling of cells, evaluation of cytotoxicity, drug-loading, circulation and degradation of selected samples will be

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'A cartridge based flow chemistry machine for the automated synthesis of N-heterocycles for drug discovery'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Saturated N-heterocycles are an important class of compounds and are attractive as scaffolds in the development of new pharmaceuticals. As part of ERC supported research, we identified a new class of chemical reagents – “SnAP Reagents” – that alleviate previous synthetic challenges. These SnAP reagents enable the synthesis of more drug-like saturated N-heterocycles, including some of the most sought after, but most difficult to prepare scaffolds. They have been successfully commercialized and are in high demand. This high consumer demand, which is indicative of the interest in these products, is despite the disadvantages of this methodology: use of toxic materials, long reaction times, and relatively complicated reaction setups and workups. Furthermore, the sales of the reagents – while successful – have low margins and there are few opportunities for IP protection. We have therefore begun development of an innovative, cartridge-based, fully automated, stand-alone machine for conducting SnAP chemistry in a safe, rapid, and convenient manner. This approach provides a clear roadmap for a sustainable, successful Startup Entity by the development and sale of proprietary machines and disposable cartridges. The ERC PoC funding will be used to assemble sufficient prototype machines and develop disposable cartridges for initial sales and marketing efforts.  The successful assembly of a working prototype will provide the basis for the sale of first generation machines and a revenue stream for establishing a sustainable business. We have already identified interested parties who will purchase the first-generation instruments and provide valuable feedback for improving and optimizing their operation. In the longer-term, it is expected that sales of the disposable reagent cartridge

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Artificial-Intelligence Driven Discovery and Synthesis of Polyoxometalate Clusters' (SMART-POM) targeting Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

We outline a 5 year programme that introduces a new platform for the preparation, understanding, and exploitation of precisely defined nano-molecules / materials based upon the assembly of molecular metal oxide precursors (polyoxometalates) under non-equilibrium conditions with well-defined physical properties using automated intelligent feedback. We will elucidate the mechanism of assembly of these gigantic molecules and  devise a set of rules similar to the magic numbers found in gold nanoclusters, using these to break the 10 nm size barrier for a single molecule. Targeted properties include photochemical and electrochemical sensors, bistable molecules, doped traditional oxides with polyoxometalates, and new catalysts including water oxidation via a Universal Building Block (UBB) approach that links properties of the building blocks with emergent properties of the resulting clusters and materials for the first time. The new approach includes the conversion of batch to flow synthesis not only for automation, but to understand fundamental mechanistic aspects, and to use artificial intelligence algorithms to help move through the myriad of possible combinations (without needing to synthesise every possible molecule).  The SMART-POM approach is therefore not merely automation of one-pot chemistry, but an entirely new paradigm building on our recent developments and will allow us to move through a vast combinatorial space effectively only locating areas of novelty via feedback control. This feedback will be used to discover, design, and develop complex, adaptive and functional metal oxide-based materials based upon sensory feedback from the physical properties measurements. Thus SMART-POM will open up a whole new synthetic space, give mechanistic understanding, and allow t

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'A Responsible Research & Innovation Model for Impact investment & Responsible Startups'.

assistant: **Objectives**

RRIstart responds to the EU efforts to foster impact investment (investment that delivers social, environmental and economic benefits) by developing an innovative RRI-based model for startups, complemented by an RRI-based impact investment indicator list in a multi-stakeholder (beyond quadruple helix) context. Through RRIstart, the consortium aims to demonstrate the value of RRI for the STEM entrepreneurship ecosystem. At the moment, startups and investors do not adopt existing RRI principles and indicators due to the limited compatibility of existing RRI models (tailored mostly for large organizations). Nevertheless, by adopting a lean/agile approach to RRI embedment, RRIstart proposes a novel RRI model for startups blended with novel RRI-based impact investment indicators. RRIstart tests the developed innovation through a translational piloting approach (from lab to market). Three pilots will be organized (on environmentally sustainable startups from Northern Europe, 3D printing & advanced materials in Italy and bioeconomy (agrifood) in Greece). In each pilot, extended quadruple helix actors will be involved in order to assess the feasibility of embedding RRI in startups and to facilitate (public and private) impact investment through the RRI-based indicator set. By adopting a multi-disciplinary approach in a multi-sectoral STEM context, RRIstart will update the SwafS knowledge base through the following: contributing to 9 MoRRI indicators and 9 SDGs; boosting societal engagement towards STEM startups; fostering the recruitment of talent for STEM startups; pairing scientific excellence with social awareness and responsibility by facilitating RRI-based startups and impact investment; creating new market opportunities; bring society closer to science and innovation thro

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Purely Nonlinear Photonic Crystals' to be submitted under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Photonic crystals are materials patterned with periodic dielectric structures. Since they were first proposed, in 1987, they have grown into a burgeoning research field with a rich spectrum of applications. Recent research in the field has been rapidly expanding to include nonlinear effects. Combining the compact formats and versatility of photonic crystal structures with the functionalities of optical nonlinearities could ultimately prove to be the key to tunable all-optical devices with huge impact across a broad range of disciplines, from telecommunications and quantum computing, to biology and sensing. Traditional approaches to nonlinear photonic crystals involve micro- (nano-) structuring the linear properties of a nonlinear medium. The research I wish to pursue through an IEF with the world-leading group on nanostructured ferroelectric optical materials would reverse this paradigm, to explore a brand new class of 2D periodic structures, i.e. Purely Nonlinear Photonic Crystals (PNPCs), based on micro- (nano-) structured nonlinearities. Key to the project will be the development of an integrated nonlinear nano-photonic platform in lithium niobate, a ferroelectric crystal in which the sign of the nonlinearity can be periodically modulated in space and exploited in integrated optical formats. The development of a such a nonlinear technology toolkit would enable a new class of ‘parametric’ photonic crystals which could manipulate all-optically the pathway, pulse shape, delay, spectrum and phase of multicolour light beams by means of purely nonlinear mechanisms (not via interference and diffraction as in ordinary photonic crystals). This could open a completely unexplored realm, holding promise for excitingly new physics and unprecedented possibilities for device engine

user: Draft an impact statement for 'HERCCULES: HEROES IN SOUTHERN EUROPE TO DECARBONIZE INDUSTRY WITH CCUS', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

HERCCULES aims at defining a first-of-a-kind, integrated and replicable approach for the implementation of the whole CCUS chain to two strategic sectors of the circular economy - Cement and Energy-from-Waste (EfW) – in an area – Italy and Greece – where the industrial promise of CCUS is largely unexplored. Leveraging on the potential of two clusters of emitters in Northern Italy (cement + EfW) and Greece (cement), HERCCULES will pave the way towards the implementation of the first full-scale CCUS chain in Southern Europe.Technological, infrastructural, safety, societal, regulatory and financial issues will be addressed by a multidisciplinary approach to build an “HERCCULES paradigm” comprising nine basic chapters.1)TRL7-8 demonstration of 2 flexible and retrofittable CO2 capture technologies, to be tested in 2 large-scale cement plants + 1 EfW plant with residual waste/biomass feed to approach nearly zero or negative emissions (>9000 h of tests).2)    Design of the optimal CO2 transport network for utilization and storage under different infrastructural evolution scenarios.3)TRL8 Geological storage of captured CO2 in the two most advanced CO2 sites in Southern Europe (Prinos and Ravenna).4)Demonstration in industrial environment of novel CO2 mineralization solutions and re-use technologies for the production of a breakthrough hydraulic binder enabling the industrial production of a carbon-sink concrete (>1000 h of tests).5)Experimentally-supported, Techno-Economic Analyses with risk assessment to ensure the safety of the full CCUS chain.6)Advancement of societal readiness through a participative approach.7)Identification of business models and financial mechanisms tailored to CCUS. 8)TRL8-9 pre-FEED studies on the most promising HERCCULES implementation options.9)Ad-hoc

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Synaptic dynamics and information processing in hippocampal neurons and networks' (2002-2006) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

I am applying for the Marie Curie International Reintegration Grant under after long stay in the USA as a researcher. Upon receiving the Grant, my major objective is to return to Hungary, carry out research in my home country, and reintegrate. My host institute offered me laboratory space to establish a research team in computational neuroscience.Since I am an experienced researcher, my training would focus on professional maturity, independence, and improvement of my leadership qualities.  The central aim of the proposed research is to develop computational models of synaptic processes in the hippocampus at molecular, cellular and network level, and then apply these models to analyze how the kinetics and dynamics of synaptic events affect cellular and network excitability.We will identify and characterize relevant synaptic mechanisms underlying neuronal excitability, spike precision and network synchrony. We will develop kinetic models of ligand-receptor interactions at GABAergic synapses. Realistic multi-compartmental models of hippocampal pyramidal cells and interneurons will be constructed and synaptic integration of variable excitatory and inhibitory inputs in these cell types will be studied.Network models of hippocampal circuits will be developed, and the effects of synaptic variability on correlated activity and network synchrony will be determined. The applied computational techniques will allow us to analyze hippocampal synaptic dynamics similar to the ones observed in in-vitro or in vivo electrophysiological recordings.The proposed computational approach and research will provide us with valuable insights into the rules and mechanisms that govern synaptic communication between neurons and ultimately determine hippocampal information processing from sub-cellul
