user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'A computational neuroscience encoding-decoding approach for explaining and comparing artificial and biological networks' in the context of a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Objectives**

Recent progress in artificial intelligence (AI) has been mostly due to machine learning and, in particular, deep artificial neural networks (ANNs). Deep learning has an increasing presence in everyday life, including critical applications such as medical diagnosis, transportation, and energy distribution. In response to this, the field of Explainable AI (XAI) has generated much effort in terms of techniques and algorithms to address this problem. However, there is still no consensus on a suite of technology to address these challenges, progress has been extremely limited, and the formal properties of such systems are under-studied.On the other hand, computational neuroscience (CNS) aims to discover the principles behind biological neural networks that enable the brain to support cognition, perception, and action. This project will employ the latest approaches and techniques used in the field of CNS to develop the field of XAI. Specifically, the first major goal will be to employ the methods of representational geometry and neural encoding manifolds (both proven to be effective in revealing meaningful neural relationships in previous studies) to reveal how activations of collections of artificial neurons in hidden layers are associated with the decision-making process of deep networks.Second, the same methodology will be used to reveal novel insights from a variety of existing large-scale biological datasets. Finally, we will compare and contrast the encoding strategies of neural populations found various deep learning architectures with those observed in biological networks. A better understanding of the inner-workings of biological models could directly inform researchers on how to build novel artificial models that are more accurate, robust, and even economical during

user: Explain how 'Colonial Soldiers in Decolonization Wars. The Moroccan soldiers in Indochina (1946-1954)' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Innovation**

The Moroccan soldiers in Indochina (Vietnam) between 1946 -1954 were a specimen of soldiers who fought a decolinization war in a third country (not in the European metropole or in their own country of origin).  This project seeks to examine to what extent  the French, in a context of political tension in the Maghreb managed to retain the integrity and loyalty of their Moroccan military structures, despite the struggle with the nationalists in Morocco. It will also examine to what extent there was continuity, from the pre-1946 era, in the political and cultural policies that the French carried out towards their Moroccan soldiers in Indochina and the reception of the Moroccans of these policies, particularly  the French army's Islamic policy. It will also look at the interactions of the Moroccans with their Indochinese cultural and human environment and the effect these interactions had on their attitude towards the people in Indochina, as well as the long term cultural social and cultrual effect of the struggle of these soldiers back in Morocco, especially in connection with marital unions and the families the Moroccans established in Indochina and later took them back home. The project sees this group of military men as as an example of temporary migrants and will also seek to compare the difference and similarities between the Indochinese case and other Moroccan migratory-military experiences that took place in Europe during and between the two World Wars. The project makes use of both archival material and exclusive interviews with Moroccan veterans.

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Risk communication network' to be submitted under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The project will establish a network bringing together scientists, science communicators and media that have not been able to complement their activities in the past on issues of science development and societal uncertainty. To be addressed are key risk is sues, including risk assessment, management and the precautionary principle. The overall aim of the network will be to stimulate open dialogue on this important topic and bring forward public perspectives on risks. The communication will be done in a stim ulating and interactive manner. We have chosen two FP6 priority areas to communicate risk issues: biodiversity and genomics as it relates to health. There will be five core deliverables to support the activities of the network: 1. Three workshops to stre ngthen the links between the three stakeholders 2 Production of four in depth case studies dealing with risk issues in the above mentioned priority areas 3. A reference book targeting communicators of science based on the in depth case studies 4. Prod uction of upto four 10 minute films to clearly present the case studies through a different media platform 5. Internet database/reference centre These deliverables will be used, primarily by our network to effectively communicate and open a dialogue with the public and schools on risk issues. The project has been designed such that the deliverables incorporate stakeholder feedback. The main communication platform will be presentations at science museums, and publishing and broadcasting media around Europe. The network includes research organizations, science communicators and media from twenty seven locations in sixteen European countries. The project aims to exploit a mixture of different information delivery platforms for the purpose of optimizing the imp act of the d

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'High quality cellulose recovery from AHP: From used diaper to coatings additive' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Every year 7.5Mton of Absorbent Hygiene Product (AHP) waste is produced in Europe. This is disposed either by landfilling or incineration. AHP waste consists of disposable child nappies, adult incontinence products, feminine hygiene and similar products. Thereof, 30% corresponding to 2.25 Mton/year can be collected as mono-stream AHP waste. However, current state of the art does not offer an economically viable solution for the recovery of raw materials from this stream. The underlying reason is that existing technology strongly depends on waste disposal gate fees and produces cellulose with a purity of typically 70-75%, which is only suitable for low grade application, e.g.as cardboard.The main objective of the innovation project is to provide a technical solution for the recycling of high grade cellulose from AHP waste. The patented process is based on dissolving lignin with mild acids, thus upgrading the overall cellulose purity. Based on this solution a total of 360 kton of cellulose per year with a high degree of purity (> 92%) can be produced from the AHP waste. This high quality cellulose that can be used as paint additive or as chemical building block, could result in an economically viable operation without depending on gate fees. The proposed valorisation of Psicon’s process represents a potential total value increase for the European economy of up to 360 M€/year and 2,000 new jobs. The European environment strongly benefits as CO2 emission is reduced up to 700 kton/year and reducing resources consumption by reusing them.The long term ambition of Psicon is to create enough production sites, at strategic locations close to the feedstock, in order to be able to convert 70-80% of the mono-stream AHP waste. This is a significant step towards near-zero AHP waste in

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Development of a new method for brief compound exposures to ion channels proteins using an automated patch clamp platform'.

assistant: **Objectives**

The gold standard for obtaining data on ion channel function is the patch clamp method. The patch clamp technique is very labor intensive and has ultra low data throughput which has been highly motivating for the development of automated patch clamp systems.Nanion has developed a technology for performing automated patch clamp recordings on planar glass substrates, with comparable recording quality as with conventional patch clamping, however, lacking the possibility to very briefly expose the cells to different solutions. If exposure times are too long, this can have adverse effects when investigating ion channels that activate on the addition of agonists (ligand gated ion channels). Ligand gated ion channels are gaining more attention in research and drug development because of their involvement in disease. These ion channels often display desensitization, resulting in a diminishing compound response, during constant stimulation.  Recovery kinetics often depends on exposure time, thus are brief exposure times desirable. We aim at developing a method for very short compound exposure using automated patch clamp by combining microfluidic structures for liquid administration to the patch clamp substrate. A robotic pipettor arm applies all solutions to the microchannels and by subsequently aspirating two differnt solutions of buffer into the pipette, and immediately  adding this “stack“ of solutions to the cell, the cell experiences a very brief exposure of agonist, directly followed by wash buffer. This way, exposure times are anticipated to be shorter than 1 second, with switching times in the order of 50 ms.This would allow for accurate experiments on ligand gated ion channels that exhibit rapid desensitization , which in turn would be useful in ion channel research on

user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Quick Image Interpretation System' in the context of a Seventh Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

QI2S will enable dramatic reductions of delay in the delivery of Earth Observation (EO) Hyperspectral (HS) data from image capture to receipt by the end-user of end product on the ground, from days or weeks to real-time or near-real-time which represents an improvement factor of 100x in  delay and 420x in effective bandwidth.QI2S will do so by innovating, developing and validating specialised ITAR-free technology for quick onboard EO HS image interpretation systems. The foundation technology is QI2S HyperCore – a custom high-performance 80 GOPS / 20 GFLOPS space-borne Many-Core computing platform; QSBB, a software interpreter with a finite number of finely honed building blocks for HS data on board processing and interpretation, will be developed to fit HyperCore; QMDL, QI2S HS imaging interpretation-mission command language will enable fast-turnaround reconfiguration devoid of elaborate time consuming testing.Building upon those disruptive technologies, QI2S will help usher in the next generation of lightweight HS satellites able to provide the complete suite of onboard geometric, radiometric and atmospheric correction followed by image interpretation and target detection and identification, for day-to-day operations, such as oceanographic mapping, as well as for evolving incidents, such as post disaster analysis.The project will develop detailed specifications, implement them through prototype hardware and software, interface them to standard onboard EO satellite systems, demonstrate the solution via end-user led ground trials and drive the overall approach to pre-normative industry acceptance. QI2S will last 33 months and bring together a satellite company, industry (payload integration, software, onboard processing), research (software atoms, long-term perspective)

user: Write a project proposal abstract for 'Regulation of mammalian phosphatidylinositol biosynthesis' to be submitted under Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The goal of the current proposal is to define the mechanisms that control phosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) biosynthesis. PtdIns is a structural component of the membrane and a precursor to signalling molecules. Its biosynthetic pathway utilizes phosphatidic ac id (PtdOH) and cytidylyldiphosphodiacylglycerol (CDP-DAG). There are two mammalian genes encoding CDP-DAG synthetases (CDS1 and CDS2). In the current proposal we will test whether one CDS isoform is involved in de novo PtdIns formation whereas the other participates in the turnover of PtdIns after agonist-induced stimulation of phospholipase C. There are strong computational evidence for CDS1 and CDS2 phosphorylation, and we propose to develop isoform specific antibodies to characterize the post-translation al modifications as well as the sub-cellular distribution of the two isoforms. The second goal is to identify the enzyme(s) that regulate the distribution of PtdOH between the CDP-DAG and diacylglycerol.Our alternative hypothesis suggests that PtdIns bio-synthesis is regulated by the supply of PtdOH, the substrate of CDS. Magnesium-dependent phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP1) is the enzyme involved in the de novo pathway of PtdOH utilization. The gene(s) coding for PAP1 enzyme(s) have not been characterized. We used a bio-informatics approach to identify two novel genes as candidates for PAP1 and we propose to characterize their biochemical activities and cellular functions as well as their involvement in PtdIns biosynthesis. Propranolol and bromoenol lactone have been previously identified as PAP1 inhibitors and additional micro-array experiments are proposed to characterize the transcriptional response to them, which may lead to the identification of their target PAP1 gene(s). The results of these studies wil

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Molecular basis for root-root interactions between wheat and weed'.

assistant: **Objectives**

In natural and managed ecosystems such as agricultural fields, plants seldom grow alone, rather, they interact with individuals that belong to the same or different plant species. In an agricultural field, wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants interact with weedy species such as Alopecurus myosuroides (black-grass), and others. Wheat-weed interactions are detrimental to the crop and can lead to substantial yield loss. Gaining a better understanding of these interactions in particular belowground interactions is critical to develop wheat that can be grown under sustainable conditions. The main objectives for this proposal are (1) to establish whether roots from wheat can display different growth patterns in the presence of roots from weed species independently from resources availability, (2) to test whether root exudates contain a signal involved in root-root interactions and to possibly identify the specific compounds detected by the crop, and (3) to identify mechanisms of root interspecific interactions by studying root gene expression profiles and identifying potential regulatory genes and response pathways. A successful outcome of the described research would provide significant additional momentum to developing the root-root interaction theme into broader investigation including other rhizosphere interactions. Building a more complete model for below-ground interactions will be of interest for both ecological and agricultural research.""

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Next generation environmentally friendly intraband active colloidal quantum dots and their ultrafast carrier dynamics for mid infrared photodetector' (ENVINTRADOT) under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Objectives**

Infrared technology has found widespread applications across various fields, including remote controls, telecommunications networks, and thermal imaging etc. Traditional semiconductor alloys like indium gallium arsenide, mercury cadmium telluride and indium antimonide have been commonly employed as active materials in infrared devices. However, the manufacturing and assembly processes for these materials are highly complex and costly. To overcome these challenges and potentially replace expensive epitaxially fabricated devices, colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) have emerged as a promising alternative. In contemporary scientific exploration, there has been a surge of interest in narrow bandgap CQDs, thanks to their remarkable capacity to finely adjust excitonic transitions within the mid-wave infrared (mid-IR) spectrum. The discovery of intraband transition (1Se/h-1Pe/h) has opened as an alternative source of narrow energy transition occurs in the quantized conduction/valence band states of CQDs. Numerous research groups have extensively investigated the fundamental aspects and practical applications of HgE (where E = S, Se, and Te) CQDs.Leveraging numerous recent scientific breakthroughs in the domain of intraband (1Se-1Pe) active colloidal quantum dots, we will integrate state-of-the-art material processing techniques across chemistry, physics, and engineering.  We will assess the dynamics of charge carriers through the utilization of femtosecond mid-IR transient absorption spectroscopy.  In addition, we will focus on optimizing the required surface environment capable of maintaining intraband transitions under ambient conditions, at the same time offering adequate optoelectronic properties (mobility, conductivity) for their implementation in photodetector devices.
