user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Parkinson's disease and mitochondria dysfunction'.

assistant: **Concept**

SUMMARY OF PROPOSED ACTIVITY Parkinsons Disease (PD) is a common progressive neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by postural instability, rigidity, tremor and bradykinesia. The pathological hallmark of PD is the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the sub stantia nigra. One important feature of PD is the presence of cytoplasmic inclusions of fibrillar, misfolded proteins, termed Lewy bodies, in affected brain areas.The etiology of PD remains unknown, although clinical and experimental evidence implicate t he involvement of mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. Rare hereditary forms of PD have provided insights into the molecular pathways of this disorder. Mutations in at least five genes have been linked to PD including a-synuclein (PARK1), parkin (PARK2), DJ-1 (PARK7), LRRK2 (PARK8) and PINK1 (PARK6). New data revealed that at least ten different mutations in the gene encoding for PINK1 are associated with recessive forms of early onset PD. The PINK1 gene is located on chromosome 1p35-36 and encodes a 581 amino acid protein of unknown function, with N-terminal mitochondria targeting peptide and a putative serine/tyrosine kinase domain.The targeting of PINK1 to the mitochondria suggests that this protein may phosphorylate a mitochondrial target(s) that might play a role in protecting cells from loss of mitochondrial membrane potential and possibly oxidative stress. We will analyse the effect of PINK1 mutations on mitochondrial dynamics and function, and create a mouse model for PD using the novel approach of recombinase-mediated DNA cassette exchange (RMCE) that allows the evaluation of both loss and gain of function in mice.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Novel Electride Material for Enhanced electrical propulSIon Solutions' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

The NEMESIS project is a transversal project strategically aiming at developing electride-based cathode technology which is compatible with all kinds of electric propulsion (EP) systems requiring neutralization addressing the full span of required electron currents from 50 mA to 5 A.The ceramic electride C12A7:e- has excellent materials properties for thermionic devices for EP applications such as hollow cathodes or thermionic emitters. Its properties are superior to those of conventional ceramics currently employed in EP neutralizer technology. It is anticipated that C12A7:e- neutralizer technology is a potential game changer widening the applicability of EP immensely by enabling new mission scenarios due to higher reliability, compatibility with alternative propellants, lower power consumption on satellite and less thermal load at low costs.The challenge is to fully transfer the theoretically ideal materials properties of C12A7:e- to neutralizer devices in order to  fully make use of its potential for application in order to achieve the best performance and reliability and become a disruptive force in the cost-driven satellite market. The interdisciplinary NEMESIS consortium addresses with task by establishing the full chain from materials synthesis via processing to device design, fabrication and testing. All links of the chain are interlocked and will be permanently validated. Four types of ceramic-based neutralizer device concepts will be addressed and matured to TRL4 aiming specifically at exploring the anticipated strengths of C12A7:e-.The 36 months NEMESIS project requests a total of EC grant of 975.803,75 € for an experienced interdisciplinary consortium of 5 partners from 4 countries: 2 SMEs ATD (Spain, Coordinator), Exotrail (France), 2 universities Justus Li

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Genetic and proteomic analysis of the regulation and functionof the b-raf kinase.' (1998-2002) targeting Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The MAP kinase pathway regulates fundamental processes such as mitogenesis, transformation, apoptosis, inflammation, and neuronal functions. It is unclear how one pathway can fulfill these diverse tasks. We want to specify the role that B-Raf kinase plays in determining its set of substrates and cell reponses of the MAPK pathways. The host laboratory has considerable experience working on the Raf->MEK-> MAPK/ ERK pathway, the partner proteins associated with the kinases and analysis of cellular Reponses. The facility to merge proteomics with genetics in order to address receptor signaling cascades and cell responses gives the applicant a rare opportunity and will place him in a excellent position to successfully continue with the project in the future. High profile research on MAPK signaling provides a significant biological question worthy of this technology. The institute also provides invaluable experience in many other aspects of cell signaling. The applicant will provide expertise in cloning, expression and purification of fusion tagged proteins, experience in the analysis of molecular interactions between signal proteins. Having completed a short-term research associate in the recently established proteomics field, illustrates that the applicant provides the skills pertinent to the project. Thus, signaling complexes, via proteomics, and functionality of constituents, via utilizing protein variants known to affect the pathway signaling, can be addressed.

user: Explain how 'The flying timber:  A glocal political ethnography of balsa extractivism and its implications for its main region of supply: the Ecuadorian Amazonia.' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

Balsa (ochroma pyramidale), is a type of timber that is mostly produced in Ecuadorian Amazonia. In fact, Ecuador is the world’s largest balsa producer 1 and it has been so for decades. Balsa is not the world’s lightest timber, yet it is the most resistant among the light, and it is used in aero-modelism. Planes’ wings usually have a skeleton made of balsa. Yet, that’s not the only enterprise in which it is used, nor is aero-modelling what inspirred this research project. It started with an ethnographic observation: when leaving the Amazonian Kichwa community in which I have been conducting research over the past two years, I found out that some of the fluvial and terrestrial passages from and to the Amazonia were blocked by local communities with the aim of not permitting the entry to balsa “mafias”.  I was intrigued and did some research: apparently the demand for balsa has skyrocketed over the past few years, and illegal balsa trade is -indirectly - responsible for some of the Amazon’s illegal deforestation. The – unlikely – reason is green energy: balsa is the core material used in the construction of wind turbin-blades, and since wind-farms have multiplied  impressively all over the globe in the quest for green energy solutions, so has the demand for balsa, which is -ironically – bringing about deforestation in the Amazonia.Through the combination of desk-research on the political economy of global balsa commodity circulation, and ethnographic fieldwork in Ecuador, the “other” side of green energy commodity chain- and focusing on  balsa extraction processes and the effects it has on local communities’ livelihoods and well being, this project intends to connect the dots, and tell “the big story” through “the small one.” It is planning to explore the relationship betw

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Multidisciplinary Approaches to Translational Research In Conduct Syndromes'.

assistant: **Concept**

Conduct Disorder (CD) is the key paediatric disorder characterized by severe aggression. It is heterogeneous, and our understanding of the neurobiology to subtype aggression is limited. MATRICS is a multidisciplinary consortium of academic partners and SMEs that focuses on the subtyping of aggression both within CD and of the broader cross-disorder trait of aggression. MATRICS will test the hypothesis that reactive and instrumental aggression result from aberrant autonomic reactivity coupled to the differential impairment of three basic neural functions: 1) regulation of control mechanisms of aggression, 2) emotional value rating of others, and 3) empathy and moral decision making. MATRICS will employ the same psychological tasks assessing 1), 2) and 3) in animal aggression models and human CD samples concurrent with the assessment of neural, neurochemical, (epi)-genetic and autonomic nervous system markers. These data will be integrated with matching expression profiling from neurons derived from CD IPSCs. MATRICS also examines how environmental risks, whether or not  they interact with genetic factors, are translated in epigenetic and neural changes. MATRICS will data-mine existing large integrated imaging-genetics cohorts (NeuroIMAGE; IMAGEN) and prospective cohorts (TRAILS; ALSPAC) with follow-up into adulthood and the (epi)genetic profiling of the PERS CD cohort, and collect a large new CD cohort and controls for collection of MRI, (epi)-genetic, biochemical and environmental measures. Bayesian machine learning tools will integrate multi-source and multi-level data, and generate predictive algorithms of persistent aggression into adulthood. MATRICS will identify new potentially ‘druggable’ targets, develop novel animal models and conduct pilot medication and neuro/

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Evolutionary Innovation Policy in Transforming Innovation Systems'.

assistant: **Concept**

Research objectives and contentThe objectives of the project are to develop a concept for innovation policy in transition countries. As the features of the industries and of their supporting innovation system changes dramatically because of the transition process the necessary changes within the enterprises requires a lot of management know-how out organizational innovations corresponding to the technological ones. The project results will show how policy makers can contribute to this adaptation process of the industrial enterprises and which kinds of knowledge they need in order to find the appropriate policy means. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) Whereas I have already worked on innovation systems in transition as well as on an industry life-cycle model where the market-entry and survival chances of East European firms in interregional markets are analysed, the research project applied for would give me the opportunity to analyse policy in transforming innovation systems. Prof. Metcalfe who is the director of the host institution and who will be the supervisor of the project applied for is proved to be an expert in the field of evolutionary innovation policy. Relevance of proposal to the innovation policy of the European CommunityThe expected results of the project are relevant to the innovation policy of the European Community in two respects:First, the conclusions drawn for innovation policy can be used as a concept for every country.Second, it contributes to the conception for the enlargement of the European Community and its implications for innovation policy.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'A Cognitive Approach to Rural Sustainable Development the dynamics of expert and lay knowledges' under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

We use the study of changes towards sustainable development in rural Europe as a means of illuminating the shape and dynamics of European knowledge society more generally. We define a knowledge society as one which contains not just one but a plurality of knowledges, expert and lay. These range from the scientific, economic, administrative, and managerial to local, practical and ecological knowledge, traditional repertoires, trial and error or experientially-based discoveries. We further define sustainable development as a knowledge- based set of practices, within which the expert form of knowledge has been dominant, but to which non-expert forms may make a significant contribution. We seek to identify the dynamics of these different forms of knowledge, and their functioning in relation to economy and society, through case studies in 12 different European countries of rural development projects oriented towards increasing sustainability. From an ecological point of view, rural areas are key areas for the transition to sustainable development. With the sustainability policy switch, rural areas have gained new economic significance in the post-industrial and post-agricultural development phase. This is visible in the manifold reactivations of the countryside as a diversifying, locally based economy encompassing new forms of agriculture (including organic and non-food production), small-scale food-processing, new forms of rural tourism, new forms of managing the complex natural resources which are found in or related to rural areas. These reactivations, their varying social and institutional forms, and their use of different forms of knowledge, will be the subject of case-study research through which this project seeks to contribute to a comparative analysis of the emergen

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'RIVER-SCAPES: Politics of Mobility in Colonial Iberian Waterways (1750-1840)' (1750-1840).

assistant: **Concept**

The politics of mobility is one of the EU's primary challenges. The right of its citizens to free movement, the 2015 European migrant crisis in the Mediterranean, and the recent Ukrainian refugee crisis underscore the varied and complex access to mobility—referred to as regimes of mobility—and highlight the intricacies of mobility politics. But how was mobility managed before the advent of the liberal state? What were the mobility regimes in European colonial borderlands? RIVER-SCAPES examines the regimes and politics of mobility in two late-eighteenth-century rivers claimed by the Spanish and Portuguese empires. Considering the long-term impacts of these systems on their landscapes, this project explores the politics of mobility in the Mississippi and Zambezi rivers, focusing on: 1) the diversity of mobility experiences in colonial river regions and the role of power dynamics associated with them; and 2) the processes by which politics of mobility were produced, shaped, and negotiated by various institutions and actors. Through an interdisciplinary approach, which includes history, mobility studies and blue humanities, RIVER-SACPES addresses three pertinent issues for the European agenda: the differentiated experiences of movement, the significance of rivers, and the impact of European colonial heritage on global mobility politics. By historicising the politics of mobility in the Mississippi and Zambezi rivers, this project aims to foster a debate on the connections between the Global North and Global South, mobility, and riverscapes.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Numerical and ERT stUdies for Diffusive and Advective high-enthalpy systems', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

The full development of geothermal energy is still hindered by the little knowledge available on the distribution of high-enthalpy fluids at depth and by the often-complex logistics. High-enthalpy hydrothermal systems preferentially develop in tectonically active and volcanic settings. In such environments, faults have a major control on fluid flow and may affects the overall fluid distribution at depth. However, due to the lack of in situ data, predicting the role of faults on fluid flow is challenging and often requires complementary methods. NERUDA proposes an innovative and multidisciplinary approach, combining numerical simulations of fluid flow with deep Electric Resistivity Tomography (ERT). The project aims at constraining the tectonic control on fluid flow in hydrothermal systems. High-enthalpy environments often have a multi-layered structure with deep reservoirs (>300 m). Classical cable-structured ERT methods cannot reach such depths. To tackle this challenge, NERUDA will use a leading-edge technology in the field of ERT methods. The newly developed IRIS Fullwaver system allows the acquisition of deep (up to ~1 km) 3D ERT surveys. This wireless system can be deployed in areas with sharp topography (e.g. volcanoes) where classical ERT is logistically not possible. Numerical simulations of fluid flow, calibrated on the interpreted ERT surveys, will be performed to assess the fault control on fluid flow. The currently available flow simulators are either not user-friendly or lack some functionalities to adequately study high-enthalpy hydrothermal systems. NERUDA will develop an open-source, user-friendly MATLAB hydrothermal module calibrated on deep ERT to investigate high-enthalpy hydrothermal systems. This module will be implemented in the world-widely used,
