user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Biowaste derived volatile fatty acid platform for biopolymers, bioactive compounds and chemical building blocks'.

assistant: **Concept**

VOLATILE aims in the development of an innovative Volatile Fatty Acids Platform for the bioconversion of municipal solid bio-waste fraction and sludgy biowaste from other industries. The platform will be integrated in anaerobic digestion. The volatile fatty acids will be recovered continuously using sophisticated membrane technology and will be provided as feedstock / carbon source for value added fermentation approaches such as biopolymer PHA to be tested in material applications, single cell oil as precursor for oleochemical industry as well as long chain unsaturated health-promoting Omega-3 fatty acids to be used as food ingredient or nutraceutical. PHA will be obtained by bacterial fermentations, single cell oil from yeast cultivation and Omega-3 fatty acids via heterotrophic microalgae. The process development will be accompanied with sophisticated LCA study in order to ensure environmental friendly process design.The project will also work on solutions to typical barriers beside others such as quality requirements, continuous and sufficient feedstock supply or interaction between members of value chain using agent-based modelling. Also the effect of legal stimuli and restrictions and subsidies and taxes will be studied and a link between product requirements and markets will be established. VOLATILE will prepare a Roadmap indicating future research needs but also giving suggestion for legislative improvements. A CEN workshop will be initiated to discuss with external stakeholders rules for the VFAP & to set up standard requirements in the form of a CEN workshop Agreement.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'Cyber Security and Resilience of Networked Critical Infrastructures'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Modern Networked Critical Infrastructures (NCIs), e.g. the electrical grid, rely on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) for their operation since ICT can lead to cost reduction as well as greater efficiency, flexibility and interoperability between components. In the past NCIs were isolated environments and used proprietary hardware and protocols, limiting thus the threats that could affect them. Nowadays, with the adoption of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) ICT, NCIs are exposed to significant cyber threats that can lead to economical and human losses.To address the aforementioned issues, this project aims at elaborating novel holistic methodologies for the design of security and resilience-aware ICT infrastructures for NCIs. The project will develop state-of-the-art techniques and tools to aid engineers in designing secure and resilient industrial ICT-based installations.The novelty of the project consists in the fact that it will fuse together the cyber and physical dimensions of NCI, an important aspect that is missing from existing approaches. The project will create novel NCI network design techniques by solving multi-criteria optimization problems that take into account several aspects such as NCI design standards, e.g. NIST SP 800-82 and NERC CIP 002-009, resilient operation of physical process, but also installation-specific information, e.g. geographical aspects. The project will also provide more effective protection mechanisms, e.g. cyber-physical Intrusion Detection Systems, by combining data from cyber and physical sensors.The proposed research lies in the context of the ""European Programme for Critical Infrastructure Protection"" (EPCIP), the ""Critical Information Infrastructure Protection"" (CIIP) action plan and the ""Digital Agenda for E

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Globalisation- and Technology-Driven Labour Market Change and Fertility' in the context of a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Objectives**

LABFER is the first project that will LABFER is the first project that will comprehensively describe and evaluate fertility consequences of the unprecedented changes in the labour market, caused by digitalisation and globalisation. These changes have been taking place during the last three decades and intensified after the Great Recession. They are reflected in: rising demand for skills, massive worker displacement, spread of new work arrangements, increasing work demands and growing inequalities in labour market prospects between the low-and-medium and the highly skilled. They are likely driving the post-crisis fertility decline in the most advanced nations, which is to date not understood. LABFER is thus highly relevant and timely. It has  four main objectives:1) to study the impact of the ongoing labour market change on fertility (macro-level);2) to examine the individual-level mechanisms behind the observed macro-level fertility effects of the ongoing labour market change;3) to investigate the role of the growing inequalities between the low-and-medium and the highly skilled for the relative fertility patterns of the two groups; 4) to study the role of family and employment policies in moderating the fertility effects of the labour market change.Our methodological approach is innovative. We will link data at several layers of observation (country, region, industry, firm, couple and individual) to account for the policy, work and family context of childbearing. We will also use novel labour market measures to capture the ongoing labour market change. Mixture cure models will be employed to separate the effects of covariates on birth timing and probability that the birth occurs. LABFER will break the ground by providing understanding of how the dynamic labour market c

user: Describe how 'Towards Enhanced Integration of Design and Production in the Factory of the Future through Isogeometric Technologies' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The project aims at significant improvement of the interoperability of computational tools for the design, analysis and optimization of functional products. An isogeometric approach is applied for selected manufacturing application areas (cars, trains, aircraft) and for computer-aided machining. Computer Aided Design and numerical simulation algorithms are vital technologies in modern product development, yet they are today far from being seamlessly integrated. Their interoperability is severely disturbed by inconsistencies in the mathematical approaches used. Efficient feedback from analysis to CAD and iterative refinement of the analysis model is a feature of isogeometric analysis, and would be an essential improvement for computer-based design optimization and virtual product development. The new paradigm of isogeometric analysis demonstrates that much is to be gained in efficiency, quality and accuracy of the analysis step by replacing traditional Finite Elements by volumetric (trivariate) NURBS elements.<br/>A general uptake of isogeometric approaches in industry can only be expected if there exist convincing technically verified and validated case studies showing real advantages over the current approaches, using both qualitative and quantitative indicators. It is also clear that the prior knowledge, such as it is contained in existing CAD-models, CAD-systems and numerical solvers, cannot just be dumped. It has to be investigated how the isogeometric concepts can actually be introduced on a large scale, starting from the interoperability of typical CAD-models and new isogeometric CAD-models all the way to product data management issues and standards.<br/>Our vision is to provide and disseminate tangible evidence of the performance of the isogeometric approach in c

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Hypothalamic Modulation of Neocortical States' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

The neocortex is densely innervated by neuromodulatory systems that act through the release of hormones, neuropeptides, and neurotransmitters such as histamine (HA), acetylcholine (ACh), noradrenaline (NA), dopamine (DA), and serotonin (5-HT), which modulate cortical function by diffusely targeting neurons and synapses in neural microcircuits. These neuromodulators regulate shifts between behavioral states such as sleep and wakefulness, or distraction and attention by controlling rhythmic network activity. It is thought that neuromodulators regulate rhythmic activity by controlling the intrinsic characteristics of neuronal networks across different organizational levels – dendritic properties, cellular physiology, synaptic plasticity, and microcircuit dynamics. Recent work has demonstrated that high-frequency “gamma” oscillations (30-80 Hz), which crucially subserve cognitive processes such as attention, learning and memory, are associated with an increase in HA levels in subcortical regions. Altered levels of HA in the neocortex and dysfunction of its receptors have been implicated in the onset of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease – pathologies whose economic cost to Europe has been estimated at about € 200 billion per year. Despite the importance of HA in brain function and dysfunction, the mechanisms through which it controls neuronal, synaptic, dendritic, and microcircuit activity in the neocortex are unknown. Therefore, the objective of the HYMNS project is to employ an innovative combination of experiments and computational modelling to provide a unifying view of the mechanisms by which HA enables rhythmic microcircuit activity by controlling different organizational levels in the neocortex. The novel methods established in HYMNS will be useful not only for stud

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Development of Thermoplastic press-forming Tool for Advanced Rear End Closing Frame Prototype and Tooling 4.0 for Assembly and transportation of the Advanced Rear End Prototype'.

assistant: **Concept**

The INNOTOOL proposal deals with novel and innovative development of tooling sets for manufacturing and assembly of components corresponding to Advanced Rear End Prototype Specimen. This demonstrator aims to improve current state of art materials and manufacturing processes, combining high rate production, high automation and new thermoplastic materials use. Regarding this main objective, several edge-cutting tooling sets will be designed, validated by means of simulation and manufactured. On the one hand the development of innovative press-forming tool is required for Thermoplastic Closing Frame manufacturing, including consolidation of stiffeners and press-forming of frame caps considering variable frame thickness. The novelty in this approach arises from addition of additive manufacturing processes, modular part design and press-forming process optimized thermal control strategies. These improvements are part of the progress beyond the state of art. On the other hand, an innovative metrology-aided and sensorised tooling set is presented for part assembly purposes. This tooling includes all the fixtures required for components handling, drilling, assembly and transportation tasks. Moreover, structure sensing and monitoring is enabled by means of force sensors and signal transducers. These signals will be analyzed by means of data analytics strategies to obtain useful information from process raw data. Fixture positioning which ensures part location and fixing are guided by external metrology approaches. This assistance enables to simplify and reduce structure complexity and costs meeting eco-design purposes.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Untangling eco-evolutionary impacts on diatom genomes over timescales relevant to current climate change' (DIATOMIC) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

Diatoms are major contributors of primary production in the ocean and participate in carbon sequestration over geologically relevant timescales. As key components of the Earth’s carbon cycle and marine food webs we need to understand the eco-evolutionary underpinnings of their ecological success to forecast their fate in a future ocean impacted by anthropogenic change. Genomes and epigenomes from model diatoms, as well as hundreds of transcriptomes from multiple species, have revealed genetic and epigenetic processes regulating gene expression in response to changing environments. The Tara Oceans survey has in parallel generated resources to explore diatom abundance, diversity and gene expression in the world’s ocean in widely contrasting conditions. DIATOMIC will build on these resources to understand how evolutionary and ecological processes combine to influence diatom adaptations to their environment at unprecedented spatiotemporal scales. To examine these processes over timescales relevant to current climate change, DIATOMIC includes the pioneering exploration of ancient diatom DNA from the sub-seafloor to reveal the genetic and epigenetic bases of speciation and adaptation that have impacted their ecological success during the last 100,000 years, when Earth experienced major climatological events and an increase in anthropogenic impacts. As a model for exploring eco-evolutionary processes in the past and contemporary ocean we will focus primarily on Chaetoceros because this diatom genus is ancient, ubiquitous, abundant and contributes significantly to carbon export. Key findings will be additionally supported by lab-based studies using the diatom Phaeodactylum for which exemplar molecular tools exist. Specifically, the project will address:1.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Trehalose as a source for privileged immunity in Drosophila'.

assistant: **Concept**

The immune response is an energy demanding process and immune cells must have a privileged access to energy/nutrients. While in mammalian system, this privileged access is achieved for example by insulin-independent glucose transporter, how is it achieved in insect is not known. The host laboratory has obtained preliminary results suggesting that the privileged access of fruit fly immune cells to nutrients might be achieved by using trehalose instead of glucose. It is known for a very long time that the primary sugar in insect is trehalose but it is a completely new idea that this carbohydrate could actually play an important role in the privileged access of immunity to resources, as in one of the most fundamental evolutionary trait. The goal of this project is therefore to test if activated Drosophila immune cells preferentially uptake trehalose and convert it to glucose intracellularly, being thus independent of the systemic carbohydrate regulation, and how important would it be for an efficient immune response. The project is based on a multidisciplinary approaches, when tissue-specific genetic tools will be used to manipulate metabolism in vivo in order to study immune response using techniques of molecular biology, developmental biology and immunology and state-of-the-art metabolic approaches. The goal for the researcher is to learn how to use Drosophila genetics and the infection models, well established in the host laboratory, and combine them with her expertise in insect physiology, cell culture and especially metabolomics.

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'Surfaces of Energy Functional Metal Oxides' (ENERGYSURF), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

Many important interactions near the surfaces of energy functional metal oxide surfaces are yet to be established at the atomic level. How bonds are formed and broken in photocatalysis, the role of the metal and oxide in a supported metal catalyst, the mechanism of energy flow from atom to atom after photoexcitation in a photovoltaic device are just some of the open questions. The underlying motivation to generate answers is clear: it provides an opportunity to improve technology associated with light harvesting and energy-related catalysis. But the fundamental science required is extremely challenging and is only just starting to yield some detailed answers. In this highly ambitious project we will tackle three major issues associated with the surface chemistry of energy functional metal oxides-- three grand challenges. In doing so, we will make use of a unique range of experimental techniques. One will focus on solid-gas interactions in studies of Au on CeO2, employing scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), scanning tunnelling spectroscopy and STM-inelastic electron tunnelling spectroscopy to answer questions about the active site of water gas shift catalysis and the mechanism by which the substrate reversibly exchanges oxygen.  The second challenge will probe the structures of interfaces between water and ZnO and TiO2, using surface X-ray diffraction and STM. This will include the adsorption of dye mimics from solution. In the third challenge, femtosecond time resolved photoemission using pump probe will be used to unravel the details of energy dissipation following a UV pulse absorption by ZnO and TiO2 substrates and their interaction with water. This is directly related to processes associated with photocatalysis. We expect that this ERC project will revolutionise ou

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Low-powered microwave quantum-enhanced communication: conceptualisation and preliminary design' to be submitted under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Abstract**

This proposal is a contribution of quantum technologies to the communications engineering field, with a potentially high societal impact. Its aim is to theoretical study low-powered microwave quantum communication protocols in realistic scenarios, via developing a quantum-enhanced version of Ambient Backscatter Communication (AmBC). This is a high-innovative paradigm that makes use of signals already present in the environment - e.g. generated by a TV-tower - in order to implement low-powered communication between devices, with applications in healthcare and wireless communication. The quantum-enhanced version will gain largely in energy-efficiency with respect to the current quantum BC and quantum radar designs, keeping the same quantum advantage. The proposal will approach the problem at different levels of knowledge: from the fundamental level to the final engineering design. I will build a rigorous framework based on resource theory for how to use open-air quantum microwaves to perform a quantum-enhanced backscatter communication in a very lossy scenario. This will be used to introduce a novel microwave quantum illumination protocol based on Schrödinger's cat states instead of Gaussian states. My approach will need only passive devices and no photodetection, solving major issues for a microwave implementation and allowing to extend the paradigm to the low-powered AmBC case. This is a multidisciplinary project, touching aspects of quantum information, low-temperature physics and communications engineering, for which there will be a double transfer-of-knowledge with the Aalto staff members. The research training will be complemented by a set of transferable skills including Self- and Team-Leadership, Pedagogy, Communication, which will make me more employable both ins
