user: Describe how 'Monitoring and Assessment of Resources in Europe - Forest' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Objective The prime objective of the MARIE-F project is to investigate and develop an operational technology for forest inventory and monitoring in Europe on the basis of environmental satellite instruments, in particular LANDSAT-TM, SPOT-XS and ATSR2. In this way the project will contribute to solve the EC need for environmental baseline data in general and will contribute to the project Forest Inventory by Remote Sensing" (FIRS) of the EC Joint Research Centre in particular. Approach The extraction of forest data from satellite data has been approached in two ways. The first one is to establish empirical relations, while the second approach is based on conceptual models of forest-light interaction. The existing empirical and modeling approaches are discussed in detail. In forest reflection, shadowing effects play a dominant role in not completely closed stands, while variations in leaf amount influence the intensity of the shadows. Recently the Forest Light Interaction Model (FLIM) has been developed, which fully takes care of imperfect shadowing. The model relates the spectral reflection in three different channels (e.g. TM3, TM4 and TM5) to the following physical forest propoerties: crown closure, crown transmissivity and foliage red reflection. The model does not or hardly require external data. Image references (clear cut, dense forest) are used for calibration. The model is invertible and the inverted model can be used as satellite data processing algorithm. From the discussion and recent results it is concluded that FLIM is a suitable starting point for a European forest monitoring system. Work content In this project possible improvements related to the calibration method, the effects of haze on TM3, the application to different forest types (evergreen/decidiou

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Spectral Interpretability for Molecular Potentials Learning with Graph Neural Networks'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The SIMPL project (Spectral Interpretability for Molecular Interaction PotentiaLs) is designed to enhance the interpretability and efficiency of Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) used to model Molecular Interaction Potentials (MIPs). GNNs have greatly advanced the prediction of molecular interactions, which is crucial for fields like drug discovery and material science. However, the complexity of these models often makes it challenging to identify which molecular interactions are most critical, limiting their practical application. SIMPL addresses this challenge by incorporating Spectral Graph Theory and Algebraic Topology into GNNs, allowing for clearer interpretation and streamlined models, focusing on the most relevant interactions without sacrificing accuracy. Compared to traditional gradient-based methods, which can be unstable and sensitive to specific molecular conformations, SIMPL offers a robust approach. Instead of a localized insights that could vary significantly depending on the particular state of the molecule or be subject to vanishing or exploding gradients problems (especially in complex models), SIMPL provides a global perspective by assessing the relevance of interactions across the entire learning task. This ensure that the identified interactions are consistently important and reliable. This approach in practice forces a multi-body expansion of the MIP leading to a comprehensive understanding of molecular systems.While SIMPL has broad applications, it will be applied to the study of immune recognition processes, such as peptide-Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) binding. The framework’s ability to reliably identify critical molecular interactions could significantly enhance our understanding of these processes, leading to more informed approaches in

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'HarmoniSed ENvironmental Sustainability in the European food and drink chain' (SENSE).

assistant: **Concept**

SENSE will deliver a harmonised system for the environmental impact assessment of food&drink products. The research will evaluate existing relevant environmental impact assessment methodologies, and consider socio-economical, quality and safety aspects, to deliver a new integral system that can be linked to monitoring and traceability data. The system will integrate: (a) (regionalised) data gathering system; (b) matrix of key environmental performance indicators; (c) methodology for environmental impact assessment; and (d) a certification scheme. The methodology will be transferred to food&drink sectors and stakeholders by means of specific communications strategies. SENSE will validate the new harmonised system in the juice, meat&dairy and aquaculture chains. However, the methodology and its associated software will be modular allowing its implementation in any food product.The sustainability information collected along the production cycle of any food stuff and reflected into the EID (Environmental Identification Document) will be accessible by the EID-Communication Platform, contributing to make the environmental sustainability part of the usual purchasing behaviour of consumers and provide a competitive advantage to those products which choose to use the EID.Main results of SENSE will be: (i)Standard key environmental performance indicators (KEPI); (ii)Harmonised methodology for environmental impact assessment; (iii)SENSE-tool for environmental data collection; (iv)EID and EID-Communication Platform; (v)Certification Scheme Concept (CSC) for sustainability; (vi)Roadmap for policy and governance implementation.SENSE consortium is formed by a multidisciplinary team involving 23 partners from 13 countries made up by a combination of complementary profiles: research org

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Benthic ecosystem fisheries Impact Study' under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Benthic ecosystems provide important goods and services, such as fisheries products and supporting, regulation and cultural services. There is serious concern about the adverse impact of fisheries on benthic ecosystem which may negatively affect the fisheries yield and integrity of the sea bed. To develop an integrated approach to the management of human activities in the marine environment, in particular fishing, there is a need to develop quantitative tools to assess the impact of fisheries on the benthic ecosystem and at the same time collaborate with the fishing industry to develop innovative technologies and new management approaches to reduce the impact on benthic ecosystems. BENTHIS will provide the knowledge to further develop the ecosystem approach to fisheries management as required in the Common Fisheries Policy and the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. It will study the diversity of benthic ecosystem in European waters and the role of benthic species in the ecosystem functioning. Fisheries impacts will be studied on benthic organisms and on the geo-chemistry. The newly acquired knowledge will be synthesized in a number of generic tools that will be combined into a fishing/seabed habitat risk assessment method that will be applied to fisheries in the Baltic, North Sea, Western waters, Mediterranean and Black Sea. Fisheries will be selected with the fishing industry based on the impact on the benthic ecosystem. BENTHIS will integrate fishing industry partners to collaborate in testing the performance of innovative technologies to reduce fishing impact. Finally, in collaboration with the fishing industry and other stakeholders, new management approaches will be developed and tested on their effects on the ecosystem and the socio-economic consequences.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Role of Mgm1 isoforms in mitochondrial fusion and inheritance of mitochondrial DNA' (MITO-MORPH) under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Mitochondria are organized as a tubular network depending on a balance of fission and fusion events. In S. cerevisiae the latter depends on Mgm1, a dynamin-related GTPase. This protein is present in two isoforms in the mitochondrial inter-membrane space both necessary for maintaining mitochondrial DNA and normal mitochondrial morphology. The two isoforms are generated following a model of alternative topogenesis depending on sufficient levels of ATP in the matrix.The major questions addressed here are why and how both isoforms of Mgm1 are needed for function. To this end I plan to investigate in detail both in isolated mitochondria and in vivo the specific role of each isoform, the interactions between short and large isoforms and the interactions of each is oform with Mgm1 partner proteins. I will use both biochemical and genetic approaches in order to modify and study separately each isoform. This will allow us to better understand the process of mitochondrial fusion.Furthermore, alternative topogenesis was proposed to be a sensory mechanism for the bioenergetic state of mitochondria. I will investigate the hypothesis whether this provides a mechanism to counter-select against bioenergetically damaged mitochondria. The present project combines approaches from well- established techniques in the host lab and my own expertise in bioenergetics and genetics to further study mitochondrial morphology in yeast. This will allow me to get the essential training in biochemistry and cellular biology to further develop my future scientific activity in studying molecular aspects of machineries devoted to mitochondrial biogenesis.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Forecasting oil prices, oil price volatility and economic policy uncertainty' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

Oil price and oil price volatility forecasts are of major importance, given the oil market is well crowded by participants who proceed to decisions based on these forecasts (e.g. oil traders, monetary policy authorities, etc). The current state-of-the-art forecasting techniques, though, (i) involve a trade-off among internal consistency, forecasting accuracy and easiness to communicate aspects and (ii) do not use ultra high frequency data. Thus, this exciting and innovative project aims to develop new econometric model frameworks to forecast oil price and oil price volatility, which will be successful in enhancing internal consistency, forecasting accuracy and easiness to communicate extracting added-value (in terms of predictability) information from the ultra high sampling frequency. In addition, this project aims to use the forecasted oil price volatility to predict the economic policy uncertainty in Europe, given that oil price shocks exert significant impact on the effectiveness of economic policy. This project will allow the researcher to advance his existing scientific and transferable skills through the cutting-edge training in the state-of-the-art forecasting techniques, as well as, in programming, consultancy and policy formulation skills. The outcome of this training (i) will provide the fellow with an invaluable opportunity for the development of a pioneering research agenda and (ii) will position him as an internationally recognised scholar that contributes to research excellence in Europe. The established capacity of the fellow as an independent researcher in the area of energy economics, the expertise of the scientist-in-charge in state-of-the-art forecasting techniques and the infrastructure of the host organisation offer great complementarities, which w

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Development of new high-damping composite materials based on advanced shape memory alloys'.

assistant: **Innovation**

This project provides advanced training that will both refine and broaden the applicant's scientific, management, and organizational capabilities, thereby enabling him become an independent supervisor in high-level European scientific or technological centres.Through the planned training he will become a skilled expert in mechanical spectroscopy and analytical electron microscopy, including more specialized techniques such as electron back-scattering diffraction and large-angle convergent beam electron diffraction.The experienced supervisor with productive international research programmes and the quality facilities available at the host group guarantee that the applicant will become a highly qualified and recognized researcher in the high-damping materials field. The young candidate has an outstanding academic career and integrates well with people from different cultures.This makes him a valuable participant in multicultural teams. The project's scientific objective is to develop new composite materials based on Cu-Al-Ni shape memory alloys for high-damping applications. Such alloys are 'smart materials', which are prominently featured in Area 3 of the 6th Framework Programme.This new composite material is based on the scientifically promising combination of a high-percentage preform of shape memory alloy powder particles, which is responsible for the high damping, and a low-melting metallic matrix filler (In, Sn, In+Sn), whose main function is the cohesion of the preform powder.Our idea is radically different from the traditional solutions used for high-damping materials and we expect that the development of these kinds of composite materials, which do not currently exist on the market, will create innovative damping solutions for several industrial applications (e.g

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Spatio-temporal control of gene expression by physico-chemical means: from in vitro photocontrol to smart drug delivery' (GENEPHYSCHEM) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

We propose to undertake a new challenge: the control of gene expression systems by physico-chemical means to achieve the following objectives: i) developing robust tools for spatio-temporal control of protein expression; ii) understanding the role of micro-environmental factors in gene regulation; and iii) constructing and implementing in vivo smart nanomachines able to express active molecules in response to a stimulus and deliver them to a targeted cell. First, various biochemical processes (transcription, translation) will be controlled by light in vitro, based on photo-induced conformational changes of nucleic acids (DNA, RNA) and chromatin. Based on conformational changes rather than specific template-protein interaction, and combined with microfluidic methodologies, this novel approach will provide a ubiquitous tool to address gene expression using light regardless of the sequence, with unique control and spatio-temporal resolution. Second, by reconstituting photo-responsive gene expression systems in well-defined giant liposomes, we will study the dynamics of gene expression in response to light stimulation. This will allow us to establish the respective roles of the membrane (surface charge, permeability) and of the inner micro-environment composition (viscosity, molecular crowding). Third, we will develop stable, long-circulating polymer nanocapsules (polymersomes) encapsulating a gene expression material that can be triggered by light and/or molecules of biological interest. In response to the signal, an exogenous, potentially immunogenic enzyme will be expressed inside the protecting nanocapsule to locally and catalytically convert a non toxic precursor present in the medium into a cytotoxic drug that will be delivered to a cell (e.g., a cancer cell).

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'The relationship between Aspirations, Expectations and Achievement: Analysing the Longitudinal Survey of Young People in England'.

assistant: **Concept**

The literature on educational aspirations, expectations and achievement provides a puzzled picture about the causal relationship between these concepts. This relationship has been under study since the late 1960s and early 1970s, yet, it is not at all clear whether there is a causal relationship between aspirations, expectations and achievement. It is not clear when and under what conditions high aspirations precede great achievement or whether high expectations are a reliable predictor for future success.The proposed study will use the Longitudinal Survey of Young People in England and the National Pupil Database to offer a new approach of conceptualising the relationship between aspirations, expectations and achievement amongst majority and minority pupils in England. It aims to map out all of the possible situations of aligned and misaligned future orientation (aspirations, expectations and achievement) and the factors that determine each of these situations (e.g. family context and class, school context and locality context).In the first part of the study I will formulate a comprehensive new theory of the relationship between these concepts (new typology of aligned/misaligned future orientation). This will cover various aspects of the relationship between aspirations, expectations and achievement, focussing on the mechanisms through which success within schools is determined for majority and minority pupils. Drawing on insights from the first part, the second part will empirically examine the new theoretical framework by exploring how family and school contexts affect the extent of alignment between aspirations, expectations and achievement. This part draws on extensive longitudinal and multilevel analysis of the above rich data. The analysis will resolve the puzzle

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Democratic Governance, Environmental and Climate Challenges, and Societal Transformation: Deliberation, Inclusiveness, and Citizen Empowerment for Sustainable Food Systems' (DEMETRA).

assistant: **Concept**

DEMETRA will demonstrate means to alleviate tensions between democratic governance and climate and sustainability transitions through an analysis of new deliberative participatory processes (DPPs) such as citizens’ assemblies and e-governance. These bottom-up processes can be highly inclusive allowing to afford a genuine political voice to all segments of society. Accordingly, gender and intersectional aspects (e.g., socioeconomic background, ethnicity) will be focused on throughout the project in particular with regard to citizen participation. DEMETRA analyzes the micro-, meso-, and macro-level opportunities for DPPs across Europe supporting the transition towards a more sustainable future; focuses in particular the transformation towards a more sustainable food system as a crucial case study; systematically compares DPPs’ setup, processes, and outcomes to identify best practices that contribute to citizens’ democratic engagement and the co-construction of sustainable societies; identifies DPPs that maximize inclusiveness and empowerment across social groups, particularly those at the margins of society; and identifies widely applicable solutions to engage in the transformation toward sustainable food systems. DEMETRA builds on a multidimensional approach that combines macro- (institutional), meso- (organizational), and micro-level (individual) explanatory factors; a cross-national comparative design that includes European countries with different DPPs experience and different food systems (Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland, and UK); and an integrated methodological approach based on multiple sources and methods (including population surveys, organizational survey, semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and public policy analysis).
