user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Biological Upgrading of Brewer Spent Grain into high added value products' (BiOBreW).

assistant: **Concept**

Brewers spent grain (BSG) is an agro-industrial by-product produced from breweries (~20 kg BSG/hlbeer). Its annual global production is estimated to be 39 million tons, with 3.4 million tons produced in the European Union. Most BSG is currently used as a low-value animal feed (35/ton). In this context, BSG represents a promising feedstock for the production of novel added-value biomolecules. Indeed, this lignocellulosic material is composed of polyphenolic macromolecules such as ferulic (FA) and p-coumaric acids (PA), which have very important physiological functions and a market price of ~ 4000 /Kg. BiOBreW will design novel recombinant enzymes that will allow obtaining high yields of FA and PA extraction from BSG. In addition, the widespread application of FA and PA in pharmaceutical industry is nowadays limited by their low permeability and instability. BiOBreW will overcome this limitation via innovative nano-encapsulation into nanocarriers (biocompatible and biodegradable selective polymers). The pretreated biomass obtained after the enzymatic extraction of FA and PA represents an ideal substrate for biogas production. However, electricity production from biogas will soon became economically non-feasible due to the rapid decrease in the prices of solar or wind power. In this context, the biological conversion of the methane contained in biogas into high added value products represents a novel and cost-competitive platform for biogas  valorization. Halotolerant bacteria such as Methylomicrobium alkaliphilum can efficiently synthesize ectoine, one of the most valuable microbial protective compounds (market price ~  1,300/kg) using CH4 as the sole carbon and energy source. BiOBreW aims at enriching new high-yield ectoine producing strains and developing a new generati

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Horizon 2020 proposal for the project 'Elucidating the Molecular and Cellular Mechanisms Underlying Neurodegeneration Using Advanced Stem Cell-Based Technologies'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common age-related neurodegenerative disease. Despite the significant progress made towards unpacking the pathomechanisms of AD, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying AD pathogenesis remain poorly understood. Previous studies mainly relied on animal models that do not capture human-specific biology, monolayer neural cultures that do not capture pathological hallmarks of the disease, and post-mortem tissues that only capture disease end-stage. There is thus a pressing need for new complementary approaches that preserve the disease genetics, mimic disease pathology, and more closely reflect human brain environment. I have developed a chimeric system for transplantation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSC)-derived brain organoids into the mouse brain, providing a powerful platform to study AD under a physiological environment. This project aims to understand the molecular and cellular aberrations underlying AD pathogenesis. I propose to achieve this goal via a novel combination of a chimeric model, iPSC-based patient-specific brain organoids, transcriptomics, epigenetics, and genetic editing approaches. We will determine the disease-associated progressive changes at the transcriptome level, examine the cellular aberrations both in vitro and within the in vivo brain environment, and identify molecular regulators that underlie disease deficits and might enhance susceptibility to AD manifestation. Next, we will define perturbations in the epigenetic landscape associated with AD. Finally, this project seeks to extend towards identifying critical mechanisms that govern the interplay between neurons and the immune system in AD. I anticipate that this research will uncover novel molecular, cellular, and functional mechanisms tha

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Characterising the proximal pyroclastic deposits in Central Anatolia to improve the recent explosive volcanic history, synchronise sedimentary records, and better assess volcanic hazards in Turkey' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

The aim of this project is to differentiate and characterize the pyroclastic products from explosive eruptions produced by Açigöl caldera, Hasandağ, and Erciyes stratovolcanoes, which are the most active and largest volcanic structures of the central Anatolian peninsula. This study is necessary to complete the gap in the tephrostratigraphic framework of the easternmost part of Europe and to reconstruct the explosive volcanic history of the region during the upper Pleistocene – Holocene, and therefore, better assess the currently volcanic hazards posed by these volcanoes on the region. The main proximal pyroclastic units of the Central Anatolian Volcanic Province (CAVP) will be identified, mapped, logged, and sampled around major volcanoes. Afterward, their chemical composition and eruption ages will be determined in the laboratory to correlate them to tephra layers deposited in distal records (including sedimentary or paleoclimatic registers). Despite an increasing number of recent studies identified many fine volcanic ash layers that are thought to be from large eruptions of Central Anatolian active volcanoes (e.g. in cores from the Black Sea, Eastern Mediterranean Sea, caves in Egypt, or several small Romanian lakes), little is known about the spatial and temporal scale of explosive volcanism in Turkey.  Correlation of these tephra layers by chemical fingerprint is essential to 1) synchronize records and identify their position in high-resolution palaeoenvironmental or archaeological registers, 2) estimate the volume and magnitude of the related eruptions, and 3) determinate how past explosive eruptions could affect the region and its occupants. Such tephrochronologic studies are important to improve our understanding of Anatolian volcanism and to more accurately cons

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Gender Equality in Museums: Exploring the Transformation of Female Religious Spaces and Objects into Modern Museum Contexts' (GEM), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

This project examines the historical transformation of female religious spaces and objects into modern museum contexts. In the 18th and 19th centuries, numerous female monasteries in Europe were abolished during secularization, leading to the reinvention of their spaces as museums and the incorporation of sacred objects into exhibitions. As a result, the cultural memory of these spaces as women's convents faded away. The project's aim is to uncover how the historical dispossession of female ownership of monasteries and sacred objects is evident in contemporary museum displays. Drawing inspiration from ""decolonize museums"" methodologies, it seeks to propose innovative solutions for addressing gender challenges in modern museum collections.To achieve this goal, the project employs a case study approach with a primary focus on the Essen Cathedral Treasury in Germany. This marks the first transdisciplinary examination of the Treasury from a gendered perspective. The research delves deeply into how gender binaries have historically influenced the representation of this collection, their persistence in current exhibitions, and subsequently, the development of strategies to transform these representations, which can be applied to similar collections.""

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Job opportunities in vehicle electrification'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Vehicle electrification plays a significant role in the process of lowering road transport emissions, and this role will continue to grow as we shift to an electric road transport paradigm. The successful development of the infrastructure, vehicles, and research breakthroughs that will enable a competitive transition to electric vehicle transport requires adding new dimensions to the traditional skills and capabilities of road transport engineers and technicians. Therefore, the transition requires not only new approaches to vehicle manufacture and development, but also to road transport education.To ensure that young people respond to the important and attractive opportunities arising in the transition, e-gomotion aims to raise awareness of the future jobs in vehicle electrification and the educational paths for reaching these jobs among the engineers and technicians of tomorrow.In order to do so, e-gomotion aims to bring together a consortium of five leading European universities (four since 15/04/2013 due to Chalmers termination) with experience of, and commitment to, the shift to an electric road transport sector, and coordinate their efforts in joint activities designed for the purposes of:- Evaluating and demonstrating job creation in the electrification sector;- Encouraging young persons to seek jobs in electrification of road transport; and- Arranging communication and stimulation campaigns targeting young persons.The universities are supported by an Advisory Board of seven industry actors and by the regional networks of the universities. e-gomotion’s work plan consists of three communication action Work Packages including: awareness stimulation events; information campaigns; and a European electrification concept competition.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Practical blue and UV laser diodes' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

The principal goal of the Working Group members is to develop II-VI CW room temperature blue diode lasers which have lifetimes in excess of 1000 hours and to demonstrate a pulsed room temperature UV diode laser. There will be additional research of the development of blue VCSELs and single mode lasers using microfabrication techniques.The programme will address the problems of II-VI/III-V interfaces, the homoepitaxial growth of lasers on II-VI substrates, the p-doping of the wide bandgap quaternary alloys, the improvement of contacts to p-type layers and an investigation on the laser degradation process.The development of components for visible and UV optoelectronic systems is a major research activity at present. Blue and UV diode lasers will be basic components for new video CD, printing and display systems. At present there are two important materials systems under investigation. Lasers produced from II-VI semiconductors by SONY show CW room temperature operation of over 100 hours and the GaN based III-V diode lasers show pulsed room temperature performance with similar lifetimes.The Esprit Programme has supported a Working Group (DEBULD) over the last three years for the development of II-VI diode lasers between Heriot-Watt University, Würzburg University and the CNRS-CRHEA laboratory in Valbonne and each group has demonstrated laser devices. The present proposal extends the collaboration to the University of Bremen and the surface physics laboratory, TASC-INFM, in Trieste. Each of these laboratories has base National funding for molecular beam epitaxial growth of laser structures and it is proposed that the combined expertise will be used to demonstrate blue and UV diode lasers for practical industrial lasers. The progress in the USA, Japan and Korea (Samsung) is p

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'New Catalysts for Degradable Polyethylene' (Catylene).

assistant: **Concept**

Polyethylene is one of the most common materials in our daily lives and accounts for 40% of the total volume of world production of plastic materials. It is used in a large variety of products from plastic bags to medical implants. The annual world production is a staggering 120 million tons. Its production is highly reliant on ethylene gas from petrochemical resources. Moreover it is non degradable, which causes severe problems in the (marine) environment.Catylene aims at addressing both issues by developing alternative polyethylene-like materials from bio-derived macrolactones. These polymers resemble properties of polyethylene and are potentially degradable under environmental conditions. Recent breakthrough technology developed at TU Eindhoven will be exploited in this project, which is the first efficient organometallic catalyst for the polymerisation of macrolatones and the ability to process the polymers into applicable devices like fibres.In this project the up-to-now unknown underlying mechanism of the organometallic polymerisation of macrolactones will be investigated and used for the rational design of more sophisticated catalysts. The knowledge will be applied to obtain polyethylene-like polymers with build-in degradability for applications ranging from simple plastic goods to biomedical materials. This will be done combining expertise and training in catalysis, biotechnology, polymer chemistry, material science and life cycle analysis in collaboration with SABIC Europe. Successes will open opportunities to green polyethylene-like polymers with reduced environmental impact.

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Secure Automated Unified Framework for EXchange' (SAUFEX).

assistant: **Innovation**

Although the European Union's disinformation policy has significantly developed since 2015, Russia’s war in Ukraine has reminded us all of the urgent need to stay ahead of the curve in order to fortify our resilience against the ever-evolving threat of Foreign Information Manipulation and Interference (FIMI). In the last year, Russia’s strategic use of FIMI in its war of aggression against Ukraine has brought an unprecedented response by those defenders who seek to safeguard universal values, democracy, and freedoms by exposing Russia’s efforts to manipulate global discourses. While governance, law, protocols, data exchange, and forensic practices should converge to address FIMI, they currently remain disparate and unaligned. This fragmented approach creates a significant hurdle in the fight against FIMI, hindering the ability of member states to prosecute, ban, attribute, or sanction FIMI actors or campaigns originating from state and non-state actors. To overcome this hurdle there is a need to better synchronise the interventions and harmonise our approach towards FIMI, as proven in the case of cyberattacks. Our consortium, SAUFEX (Secure Automated Unified Framework for Exchange), comprises of concerned stakeholders who possess significant expertise and hands-on experience with the current systems and structures concerning FIMI and are situated in the EU's Eastern regions, where FIMI incidents are frequently observed. We strongly understand the importance of consolidating and utilising available information to establish a collective comprehension of FIMI. To achieve this, our project proposes the creation of a FIMI data-space, which we will herby refer to as a FIMI knowledge database, as well as the establishment of a Resilience Council to act as an intermediary betwe
