user: Draft an impact statement for 'Acoustics-based drone navigation and interaction', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Impact**

Autonomous multi-rotor aerial vehicles (MAVs) are an emerging technology, which has a large number of current and potential applications in a wide range of industries. These airborne vehicles are becoming growingly autonomous thanks to modern artificial intelligence technologies, with their navigation and interaction capabilities based predominantly on visual sensing. While vision navigation has attracted considerable attention, it suffers from a poor performance in low light, limited field of view, and direct sunlight and is vulnerable to occlusions. Acoustic sensing can complement and even replace vision in many situations, and it also benefits from lower system cost and energy footprint, which is especially important for small form-factor aircraft. While novel acoustic technologies based on phased microphone arrays are making their way into the Internet of Things and home automation markets, their use in MAVs is currently impeded by the strong self-noise generated by the drone propulsion system. Consequently, existing commercial and research aerial platforms have advanced vision capabilities, yet no acoustics. This project targets to change this situation, endowing drones with ""ears"". The proposed research aims at the development of novel machine learning-based algorithms and real-time systems for acoustic-based autonomous mapping, localization, and interaction of MAVs. One of the key ideas of the proposal consists of actively controlling and shaping the aircraft self-noise for the benefit of the navigation and interaction tasks, instead of considering it a harmful nuisance. Our end goal is to demonstrate a flying proof-of-concept system which, to the best of our knowledge, will be the first of its kind. While the primary goal of the project is very specific, achie

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Fourth Framework proposal on 'Pan-European resource for assays for diabetes-related immune and genetic markers'.

assistant: **Innovation**

- To develop innovative, miniaturized high throughput methods for large scale determination of genetic and immune markers of susceptibility to type 1 diabetes mellitus. - To undertake training of researchers and technicians from laboratories setting up these methods, and to promote technology transfer, standardization and quality control programmes. - To apply this technology in support of the EURODIAB TIGER and ENDIT concerted actions, in order (a) to examine the distribution of diabetes susceptibility genes in relation to the incidence across Europe, (b) to examine interactions between genetic susceptibility and immune activation and (c) to improve risk assessment for recruitment into intervention trials.Type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetes mellitus typically presents in childhood, and the highest known incidence of the disease is found in Europe. Irreversible loss of pancreatic beta cells results from an autoimmune process that appears to be initiated early in life as the result of an interaction between genetic susceptibility and environmental factors. There is a long pre-clinical prodrome, characterized by the presence of circulating autoantibodies against islet antigens, and intervention to modulate the disease process at this stage appears increasingly possible. Investigation of the interactions between genetic susceptibility, autoantibodies and potential environmental determinants promises increased understanding of the aetiology and pathogenesis of the disease. It also offers the opportunity to refine risk assessment to identify individuals likely to benefit from interventions to delay or prevent the clinical onset of disease. Testing on the scale required to undertake such studies must be cheap, simple and easily applied. Assays need to be performed on dried bl

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Feminist Movements Revitalizing Democracy in Europe' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

FIERCE aims at providing sound theoretical and practical knowledge and tools to revitalize alliances between the feminist movement, civil society and political decision makers in a context of growing social inequalities, political disaffection and strengthening of populist radical right anti-gender actors and discourses. The research uses an interdisciplinary, multi-dimensional and multi-level framework, that aims to overcome the limitations of both disciplinary scholarships and nationalist methodologies. FIERCE develops in-depth understanding of feminist and anti-feminist/anti-gender movements, activities and discourses, and their impact on the institutional arena and on policy outcomes, focusing on the period 2010-2021. These actors, and especially the feminist movement, will be studied through framing, political ethnography and Social Network Analyses on the background of key gender debates and controversies prefigured to be situated in the areas of: labour market; health and reproductive rights; LGBTQ+ rights; migration; and gender-based violence. FIERCE will cover eight case studies (France, Italy, Greece, Slovenia, Turkey, Denmark, Poland, Spain) representing a wide variety of country contexts in socio-political, geographical and welfare terms. FIERCE moves beyond a country-based approach and provides a cross-cutting comparative analysis of the way debates and controversies on gender have influenced the dynamics and output of the policy process. Building on co-creation methods and on a strong alliance with civil society organisations, FIERCE proposes pilot actions that can reinvigorate democratic practices, in line with feminist inclusive visions for the future of democracy. FIERCE thereby sets out a bottom-up, problem-driven and impact-oriented approach, bridging

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'How Ordinary People Make Sense of Anti-Gender Messages'.

assistant: **Innovation**

This project explores why ordinary people continue to oppose and, in some European democracies, increasingly push back against gender and sexual equality. In face of anti-gender mobilizations, i.e. the campaigns against gender and LGBT rights that have been growing in strength and influence since the mid-2000s, we urgently need to understand how individuals make sense of anti-gender messages, what makes these messages resonant to different audiences, and how and why they succeed or fail in different contexts. In examining these questions, this study will adopt a cross-cultural qualitative research design, comparing the strategically selected cases of Croatia and Belgium (Flanders). By a unique combination of democratic forums, pre-acquainted focus groups and individual interviews, this study aims to understand how ordinary people evaluate publicly available ideas about gender and sexuality; how the individuals' personal and social characteristics and identifications shape their evaluations at both the individual and collective level; and how are these gender and sexuality evaluations and interpretations situated into contexts with different climates of opinions and institutional-legal frameworks. Based on this, the study aims to build a theoretical model of cultural reception that connects individual and group perspectives and socio-cultural contexts. The project's insights will contribute to various disciplines studying the interactions of institutions, values and individual meanings in general, and the anti-gender mobilizations more specifically, ranging from sociology and political sciences to social movements, public opinion and gender and sexuality studies. The study's results are also intended to generate wider social impact by highlighting the concerns the policy

user: Explain how 'SwingBots: Nonlinear Resonance for Sustainable Automation' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

The SwingBots project is about constructing energy-efficient industrial robots. In our ongoing ERC-funded project, M-Runners, we developed new theoretical foundations and technological solutions for realizing repetitive robot motions mechanically, by nonlinear resonance.  We now want to leverage this knowledge to build a robot where most robot motions are generated by a tuned interplay between moving masses of the robot links and elastic elements instead of purely relying on electric motors. This concept is especially beneficial for repetitive or close-to-repetitive motions as often encountered in engineering and industry. As a prominent example, we look at pick-and-place applications. By focusing on use-case identification, market research, and building a prototype with commercial viability, the SwingBots project aims to take the first steps towards commercialization, which is bolstered by the protection of several granted patents.  The better the mechanical resonance matches the motions required for the applications, the less the actuators need to do - and the higher the energy efficiency. Besides efficiency, the approach promises to increase safety in human-robot interaction and more silent, robust, and cheaper robots.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Towards an enantioselective synthesis of Plakortide P and its application to the development of drugs for the treatment of Chagas disease'.

assistant: **Objectives**

African sleeping sickness, leishmaniasis and Chagas disease are all examples of orphan diseases, so named for the overall lack of attention given to them by major pharmaceutical companies. The infectious agent of the disease is Trypanosoma cruzi. Between 8 to 11 million people in Mexico, Central America, and South America are estimated to have Chagas disease, most of whom do not know they are infected. If untreated, infection is lifelong and can be life threatening.Recently, the Plakortis species have proven to be a rich source of bioactive cycloperoxides - broadly classified as ‘Plakortides’ - which are reportedly highly selective against T. cruzi. This research proposal aims to answer the following questions: 1) Can the enantioselective peroxidation of unsaturated aldehydes be developed and applied to a synthesis of the Plakortides? 2) Can high potency analogues be synthesised through modification of the olefinic side chain? 3) Will stabilisation of radical metabolites lead to novel analogues with superior activity as potential therapies?In this project, the fellow will lead a ‘state of the art’, multidisciplinary research programme in a world class European research environment and host. The fellow will develop novel methods in organocatalysis for preparing chiral cycloperoxides, which will be applied to the complex natural products. In turn, this methodology will facilitate the production of aromatic analogues of Plakortide and potentially effective treatments for Chagas disease.Included in the fellowhip is an extensive training programme incorporating many career-enhancing modules and elements. A joint collaboration will run between Irish and UK universites with the fellow visiting both laboratories where he can broaden his skills from chemistry into biology and bi

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'System modelling techniques for optimisation of energy, environmental aspects and water usage for new integrated processes and plants' in the context of a Fourth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

The principle industrial objective of the proposed Rational Use of Energy in Industry cooperative RTD is to provide the European process and manufacturing plant sectors with superior visual modelling and design techniques, which will allow them to improve their competitive position by designing and implementing resource and energy efficient process and industrial plant. The technique will provide a novel and intuitive approach to the assessment of resource and efficient design considerations at early stages of the design process. Of the 5500 manufacturers of special purpose plant in Europe, around 3900 are SMEs. However, the supply base of companies capable of designing and implementing manufacturing process plant tends to be dominated by larger, US & Far East owned companies. In 1995 nearly 55% of the 11 Bn ECU's of sales into this market were from manufacturers out side the EU, most being from the US and Pacific Rim countries. To improve the competitive position of the European SME's in this sector they need to have available modelling, design tools and methodologies only accessible to the largest of companies. This cooperative RTD aims to provide this capability on low cost platforms and presented with interfaces to allow the minimum of expert knowledge to operate. Most importantly those companies taking part in the project will be able to offer reduced operational costs as a result of more efficient plant being designed, which resulted from the improved understanding of resource efficiency at the design stage, in a market worth 11 Bn ECU per year in Europe. The intention to develop methodologies that will be applicable at low cost to other important infrastructural areas where resource and energy management are critical in providing facilities that reduced operation

user: Explain how 'Hybrid Artificial and Natural Atomic Systems' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

This project will establish a groundbreaking research program in hybrid quantum systems combining solid state and atomic components. The key elements in this project are devices based on single quantum dots and novel photon storage schemes in atomic systems. Quantum dots, also known as artificial atoms, enable photon generation in the solid state with functionalities such as tunability, high collection efficiency, radiative lifetime engineering and scalability. Atomic systems are well controlled, exhibit long coherence times and enable the implementation of robust schemes for photon storage. HANAS will demonstrate that a powerful synergy can emerge from hybrid quantum systems where the advantageous functionalities of solid state and atomic systems are combined. We will develop a new type of solid state quantum emitters optimized for coupling to atomic transitions, based on quantum dots in complex nanostructures. New schemes to efficiently couple the emission from single quantum dots with atomic transitions will also be developed and implemented. A range of new hybrid experiments will be carried out that will result in the demonstration of hybrid quantum interconnects where photons generated in a quantum dot will be stored in a rubidium vapour. Additionally, frequency locking techniques borrowed from the atomic community will be implemented in the solid state to counteract spectral diffusion of single quantum dots. To reach our ambitious goals, we bring together European leaders in atomic optics, quantum dot optics, quantum dot growth and nanoprocessing. These achievements will play crucial roles in the development of complex quantum networks.

user: Explain how 'Development of CIRCular optimised material solutions for WIND turbine blades and support structures' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

CIRCWIND will develop and validate innovative technologies for current and future wind turbines (WT), to enhance reliability and lifetime, performance, operability and maintainability, as well as to find cost-efficient pathways towards complete circularity in a context where a growing number of WT are reaching their EoL. CIRCWIND’s most relevant results are:- A prototype Fibre-Reinforced Polymer (FRP) material for blades with improved damage-tolerance and fatigue life, using a new multiscale modelling tool and simulation framework.- A circular low Carbon concrete material for offshore floating WT based on a new geopolymer binder and circular lightweight aggregates (CLWA).- New virtual replica-based constitutive models and simulation tools for the FRP material and geopolymer concrete, coupled with monitoring technologies allowing to simulate and predict failure and lifetime, and enabling future digital twinning for blade and substructure components.- Integrated sustainability analysis addressing social, economic and environmental aspects, as well as improved circularity.CIRCWIND will develop its technologies to TRL5, building prototypes and validating them in relevant environmental conditions. Representative components of TLP floater and blade have been chosen, made of geopolymer concrete and FRP materials respectively. These innovations will allow future WT to include circular and cost-efficient materials installed in critical WT components at operating windfarms, ensuring feasibility, sustainability, acceptability and high replicability. Besides, new simulation tools, virtual replicas, DT to improve O&M costs.CIRCWIND consortium has a good balance of academic and industrial partners, which allows the project’s developments to be well-oriented towards real market needs

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Cuban-Irish Diasporas: Gender, Race and Ethnic Whitening Strategies' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

This project will study gender, race, and culture in the Hispanic Caribbean from the perspective of Irish migration to Cuba in the nineteenth century. The approach is multi-disciplinary (MD) crossing history, social sciences, and digital humanities (DH). It will produce the first monograph-length study on Irish settlement in Cuba, entitled ‘Cuban-Irish Diasporas: Gender, Race and Ethnic Whitening Strategies’, accompanied by an open-access digital archive. The Fellow, with a joint migration and DH background, will carry out a cutting-edge research project on Irish migration and ‘white colonisation’ in a time of slavery in Cuba at the School of Canadian Irish Studies, Concordia University (CU) under the supervision of Professor Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin. In the return phase, the Fellow will be supervised by Professor Daniel Carey, Director of the Moore Institute, NUI Galway. The project examines inter-related processes of Irish migration in the Atlantic World and white colonisation strategies in the expanding slave society of nineteenth-century Cuba. To explore this unfamiliar and compelling history of Irish immigrants in Cuba c. 1818-1850, the project will study the records of the Council for White Population and other previously un-researched sources in the Cuban archives. By capturing the complexities of the Irish experience the study will throw new light on the politics of gender and race in trans-cultural relationships with Cuba’s majority African diaspora and European immigrants. Based on an archival study, records of kinship, labour relations, and property will be examined to establish how Irish women and men participated in this putative whitening strategy in a region of frontier slavery in a Spanish colony. This historic approach to whiteness, class and gender has br
