user: Describe how 'Big Data in Chemistry' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

The advent of the big data era in chemistry and the life sciences requires the development of new computational analysis methods, which are not only of scientific, but also economic relevance. Currently, the international data market already grows six times faster than the entire IT sector, and growth rates further increase. Achieving and sustaining a leadership positions in the big data arena represent critically important challenges for the EU. The economic developments in the emerging big data field are science-driven. Due to complexity and heterogeneity of biochemical and biomedical data, large-scale data exploration and exploitation are intrinsically interdisciplinary tasks. BIGCHEM positions itself at interfaces between chemistry, computer science, and the life science to provide well-structured multidisciplinary training and educate high-in-demand computational specialists capable of operating in interdisciplinary and international research and business settings. Cornerstones of BIGCHEM’s curriculum include on-line lectures and periodic schools taught by internationally leading experts in chemical and life science informatics, a balanced consortium of academia, SMEs, and large industry, and an unprecedented symbiosis of academic and industrial training and application components. Accordingly, BIGCHEM is well positioned to boost multilateral collaborations between academia and industry and train scientists who are highly competitive in the international big data market. In BIGCHEM’s R&D and training activities, the development and evaluation of conceptually novel methods for large-scale data analysis, knowledge extraction, and information sharing with demonstrated practical application potential take center stage. The network has a clearly defined policy for explo

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Canine models of human psychiatric disease: identifying novel anxiety genes with the help of man's best friend' (DOGPSYCH) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Anxiety disorders include different forms of pathological fear and anxiety and rank among the most common health concerns in human medicine. Millions of people become affected every year, and many of them do not respond to treatments.  Anxiety disorders are heritable, but genetically complex.  As a result, traditional gene mapping methods in the human population with prominent locus and allelic heterogeneity have not succeeded. Similarly, rodents have provided some insights into the circuitry of anxiety, but naturally occurring versions do not exist and gene deletion studies have not provided adequate models. To break through and identify new anxiety genes, I propose a novel and unique approach that resorts to man s best friend, dog. Taking advantage of the exaggerated genetic homogeneity characteristic of purebred dogs, recent genomics tools and the existence of naturally occurring heritable behaviour disorders in dogs can remedy the current lack of a suitable animal model of human psychiatric disorders. I propose to collect and perform a genome-wide association study in four breed-specific anxiety traits in dogs representing the three major forms of human anxiety: compulsive pacing and tail-chasing, noise phobia, and shyness corresponding to human OCD, panic disorder and social phobia, respectively. Canine anxiety disorders respond to human medications and other phenomenological studies suggest a share biological mechanism in both species. The proposed research has the potential to discover new genetic risk factors, which eventually will shed light on the biological basis of common neuropsychiatric disorders in both dog and human, provide insight into etiological mechanisms, enable identification of individuals at high-risk for adverse health outcomes, and facilitate

user: Describe how 'Dynamic cell wall remodeling during plant-microbe interaction' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Plants have a strong yet extensible wall as their outermost layer, which is indispensable for the survival of the cell and permits cell adhesion. The plant cell wall (CW) plays an essential role in response to biotic stress, as it constitutes the first contact substrate for microbes. Our findings using the model pathosystem consisting of the plant Arabidopsis thaliana and a root pathogen that can infect it, Fusarium oxysporum (Fo), confirm that the plant CW is not the static barrier it has been seen as until recently. On the contrary, based on our preliminary data, we hypothesize that plant CW remodeling at the subcellular level plays an essential role in the outcome of the plant-microbe interaction, which might explain the sophisticated mechanisms of plant-endophyte (pathogen, neutral or beneficial) co-evolution.  Our work has established a foundation of tools that provide a timely and unprecedented opportunity to test this idea. We aim to elucidate the role of root-specific CW composition and its dynamic changes in root-Fo interaction. Then, we will use this knowledge to modulate the CW properties of the root cell layers to reduce Fo pathogenesis while maintaining beneficial endophytism. Through a unique combination of well-established and high-risk/high-gain molecular, biochemical, bioimaging, and genetics approaches, this project will provide groundbreaking insights not only into the molecular mechanisms underlying CW-dependent establishment and regulation of innate immune signaling in plants, but also into general mechanisms that control plant-microbe interaction outside the plasma membranes. The knowledge gained from this work will advance our current understanding of plant-microbe co-evolution. In addition, we will generate innovative methodologies that will be a

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Co-production of Climate Services for East Africa'.

assistant: **Concept**

CONFER is a multi-national collaboration to bolster resilience to climate impacts and reduce disaster risk in East Africa, potentially reaching 365 million people in eleven countries. Our main objective is to co-develop dedicated climate services for the water, energy and food security sectors with stakeholders and end-users, to enhance their ability to plan for and adapt to seasonal climate fluctuations. The scientific work in CONFER is ambitious and aims to break new ground along three inter-related tracks. First, we will secure end-user engagement by using the Greater Horn of Africa Climate Outlook Fora, which are held three times per year and attract about 200 stakeholders, as platforms for co-production of new and dedicated climate services for our focus sectors. By fostering a two-way dialogue between our scientists and a large group of stakeholders and end-users, we will create enthusiasm and raise awareness to ensure that the value of our new science and products is fully realized by those who need them the most. Second, we will improve on the accuracy and local detail of numerical prediction model outputs for East Africa, with a particular focus on seasonal prediction. Third, we will develop statistical and machine learning tools to obtain a new level of seasonal forecast skill based on numerical models and high-resolution satellite data. We will also involve our scientific experts in a large training and capacity development programme designed to enhance climate information uptake in our focus sectors. Our research and outreach address important IPCC topics, the sustainable development goals, and the expected impacts in the call for proposals. We will aim to influence policymaking through frequent interaction with stakeholders at the climate outlook fora, by p

user: Describe how 'DETECTION OF SAFETY CRITICAL CRACKS AND CORROSION IN SHIPS USING NOVEL SENSORS AND SYSTEMS BASED ON ULTRASONIC LINEAR PHASED ARRAY TECHNOLOGY' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Structural failure is a major cause of the wreckage of ships, vessels and tankers and causes loss of life and pollution of the seas and coastal waters of Europe as follows: §In 2004, the total amount of oil and oil products transported by sea reached the two billion-tonne/year mark (more than 40 % of total maritime traffic). The European Union accounts for 27 % of this traffic, with 90 % of Europe’s oil arriving by sea. •Over 2.5 billion tonnes of oil is used around the world every year, and 3 million tonnes is discharged every year into the oceans as a result of oil carrying vessel and tanker failures. Tanker accidents typically account for 12% of all oil pollution. The Exxon Valdez incident released 40 000 tonnes of oil and caused an oil slick that covered 2,600 square miles. After the tanker Braer spilt; 85 000 tonnes of oil was released with a clean up cost of 16 billion Euros. •Every year about 1 000 people die as a result of ship structural failures. The objective of this project is to develop new and novel ultrasonic linear phased array techniques, sensors and systems for finding defects and corrosion in safety critical areas of ships and tankers without taking the vessel out of the water. The Ship-Inspector technology will help operators, classification societies and regulatory agencies worldwide to manage risk more effectively. The ShipInspector Consortium will disseminate the technology and associated training to the SMEs represented by the participant SME-AGs. There are 12,000 SMEs involved in the €50 billion inspection and maintenance sector. Furthermore, the Ship-Inspector technology will reduce the risk to which inspectors are exposed whilst working on ships. Note that shipyard and marine work has an injury-accident rate more than twice that of constructio

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Development of Rietveld tomography to measure Local Anisotropic Strain and its Application to Bone Nanostructures' (RIETOM) targeting Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Abstract**

Bone and other hierarchically structured materials have unique mechanical properties, which are governed by the spatial arrangement of their nano-constituents. Their structure-mechanics relations can currently be determined down to ~10 µm using X-ray computed tomography. Below this, there is currently no method that can determine local anisotropy of its mechanical properties. This impedes state-of-the-art models from accurately predicting key macroscopic properties such as fracture behaviour. We propose in this project the development of a new method - Rietveld tomography - to determine local anisotropic macro- and micro-strain, based on a new way of analysing X-ray diffraction data that combines the properties of so-called X-ray tensor tomography and Rietveld refinement. The project will consist of the development of the mathematical formulation of Rietveld tomography in the environment of experts in this field at Aarhus Universitet, in particular supervisor Henrik Birkedal; combined with a stay at the secondment institution ESRF, where we will develop the experimental implementation of Rietveld tomography and validate the method. In the third part we will apply the method to osteonal bone and characterize its local response under mechanical load in situ. All that will be implemented and developed in the 24 months of the project, which compiles method development, data analysis strategy development and implementation, and experiments at large-scale synchrotron facilities. We expect that  this study will (1) provide a new method to the research community to study not only biominerals but polycrystalline materials in general, linking for the first time hierarchical structure and texture in nanostructured composites. (2) It will lead to a quantum leap in our understanding

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'New Approaches to the Identification of Macroeconomic Models' (2014-2020), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Macroeconomic data are largely non-experimental. Thus, causal inference in macroeconomics is largely based on assumptions about what aspects of the variation in the data are exogenous. This presents two major challenges, which this research addresses directly. First, few such assumptions are generally accepted. Second, conditional on any set of assumptions, identification of causal effects is often weak because there is little relevant variation in the data. To tackle these challenges, I propose three lines of enquiry to explore new sources of identification and develop the requisite econometric methods.The first line will study the implications of the so-called ‘zero lower bound’ (ZLB) on nominal interest rates for identification. The key novel insight is that the ZLB causes monetary policy to be set at least in part exogenously. This can be thought of as a natural experiment that generates a new instrument to identify the underlying policy model. This insight applies more generally to policy functions subject to exogenous constraints. The informativeness of these constraints depends on the probability that they bind, so recent experience makes the ZLB a promising application of the idea.The second line will analyse new ways of using time-variation in some of the parameters of macroeconomic models, such as trend inflation or the volatility of shocks, to study important open questions in macro, such as the degree of forward versus backward-looking behaviour and the ‘good luck versus good policy’ debate.The third line will contribute to the on-going research on developing methods of inference that are robust to weak identification. This is a pervasive problem in macro that threatens the validity of structural inference under any identification scheme.The synergies among

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'The development of lithium intercalation materials and techniques for their characterisation' (INTERCALNET) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

This proposed Network is concerned with the development of an enabling techno within the context of work on very thin films that are electrochemically active, produced or modified by electrochemical means. The techniques of choice for the analysis and chemical characterization of thin films in general are X-ray photo- electron spectroscopy (XPS), or SIMS. These methods are UHV and highly suited for characterization of films produced in-vacuum but many of the active materials are air-sensitive and it is necessary to use protected transfer from a bench-top cell or, better still, to use an in-spectrometer electrochemical cell. The proposed Network will address, on the one hand, the problem of specimen transfer and, on the other hand, the realization of opportunities stemming from production of high quality thin films and their characterization In parallel with the drive for improved vehicle batteries there is a view that high speed integrated circuits may, in future, require incorporation of micro-batteries at nodal points within the circuit in order to minimize the power loses associated with power distribution along interconnects of ever decreasing dimensions. Microbatteries would also be necessary to power Micro Electrical Mechanical Systems (MEMS) Such batteries would be based on thin film technology. In addition to the use of Li intercalation for battery applications an area of increasing importance is found in optical devices in which modulation of the dielectric properties such as refractive index is required. Typical applications of this technology are smart windows and antiglare screens, in which thin films serve as source and sink for lithium ions. In addition to the development of a cache of trained young researchers, the work undertaken by the Network Participa

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Middle Palaeolithic projectile weapon TIPs: a regional and assemblage scale perspective on Neanderthal POINT technologies across Europe', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Stone-tipped hunting weapons are an important marker of the technical and cognitive capacities of Palaeolithic hominins and represent a crucial tipping point in human behavioural evolution. Neanderthals were skilled hunters, as indicated by zooarchaeological and isotope analyses, but preserved remains of organic spears are sparse and potential lithic weapon tips are not ubiquitously present during the Middle Palaeolithic (MP, ca.300,000-40,000BP). Unravelling this enigma and reconstructing the technology underlying MP hunting events is one of the key challenges in studies of Neanderthal behaviour.Securely identifying hafted weapon tips is complex and past analyses of MP points have mainly focused on individual artefacts, their morphometric characteristics, use-wear and residue traces. Conversely, studies that contextualise MP points at an assemblage level, cross comparing various blank and tool types, are sparse, especially for the European record, even though they are key to a more comprehensive understanding of the role of point shapes in the Neanderthal tool kit.TIP-N-POINT fills this current research gap by bridging review and primary assemblage level data across Europe, providing a much needed data-driven perspective on Neanderthal hunting. At its centre stands the timely application of a suite of state-of-the-art analytical tools, including geometric morphometrics, GIS edge damage mapping and quantitative approaches (incl. generalised linear modelling). As a result, TIP-N-POINT will significantly advance methods in Palaeolithic archaeology and knowledge on Neanderthal behaviour as well as enhance the skill portfolio of the applicant.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Disseminating the integrated European census microdata' (DIECM) targeting Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The overarching aim of the Disseminating Integrated European Census Microdata (DIECM) Database Study is to implement an Internet based dissemination system to make accessible to researchers and policy makers an integrated micro- and meta- data infrastruct ure, based on multiple rounds of population and housing censuses for at least 17 European countries. Thus, this project will address one of the major structural weaknesses of European social sciences research the absence of cross - national infrastructu re for access to comparable census micro and macro data. DIECM proposes to raise European research on partnership with the American and Canadian social sciences, where census microdata have been available for decades. Census microdata are an invaluable resource for social science research. A vast quantity of census microdata covering Europe in the period since the 1960s survives in machine-readable form. Most of these data, however, remain inaccessible to researchers. Grants from the National Institut es of Health and the National Science Foundation of the United States cover the costs of finding and preserving microdata and documentation, negotiating dissemination agreements, developing data cleaning and sampling procedures, creating data conversion software, and establishing design protocols for data and documentation. The present proposal seeks funding to make these micro and macro- meta data available for scholarly and educational research from a European webbased data dissemination access site , housed at the Centre destudis Demographics. This activity will enhance and promote usage of the European microdata, based on samples of over fifty Western and Eastern European censuses. With over fifty million persons residing in over twenty million ho useholds, the integra
