user: Describe the specific objectives and expected outcomes for 'Public Transport Systems? Accessibility for people with disabilities in Europe' in the context of a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Objectives**

One specific area, for which there is still lack of EU level data, is the accessibility of public transport for people with disabilities and its impact on the employment and social integration prospects of people with disabilities.  PTaccess now offers the chance to fill this gap in knowledge and obtain actual information on the current state of accessibility of urban and rural public transport systems in all 25 EU member states: For each member state PTaccess will analyse the state of accessibility of publi c transport from the point of view of national disabled organisations, national transport operators and governmental authorities. For regions where public transport is not accessible PTaccess will identify and analyse applied alternative transport solution s (WP1).  PTaccess will also identify and analyse good practices and innovation in making public transport accessible, and enhance the scientific base of policy by providing a sound assessment of the costs and benefits of making public transport accessible (WP2).  Furthermore PTaccess will deepen the understanding of the transport-related contexts of social exclusion of disabled people, and draw conclusions about the effect which accessible public transport has on employment and social inclusion prospects for disabled people (WP3).  PTaccess will directly contact national experts within each of the 25 member states as well as draw on results of other projects and initiatives. Organising the work in this way PTaccess will obtain excellent results. The project ou tcomes will be downloadable from the project website, and will be spread among European stakeholders by electronic newsletters, press releases and via network-contacts. PTaccess will be coordinated by Austrian Mobility Research - FGM-AMOR, who have already

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'From evolutionary biology to crop mushrooms: constructing sporeless mushroom strains' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon Europe call.

assistant: **Abstract**

In our previous ERC project we identified a broad panel of fungal genes that are associated with spore formation, one of the largest problems in industry-scale crop mushroom production. The mushroom market intensely seeks sporeless strains, however, existing ones are used by a small fraction of growers, because, in addition to sporelessness, they show unwanted morphological defects, which reduce crop quality. In preliminary experiments, we demonstrated that CRISPR-based targeting of novel genes we identified can generate sporeless strains in two model mushroom species, without unwanted side effects. In this project, we set out to demonstrate the utility of this gene panel in converting industrial oyster mushroom (Pleurotus spp) strains into sporeless varieties, without the genomic incorporation of exogenous DNA. This will give us a simple and low cost lab-to-farm pipeline for developing novel industrial mushroom strains using a technology that is widely accepted as non-GMO in several regions worldwide. We plan to commercialize such strains through our existing and novel industrial partners in the US, Australia, Japan and potentially several more countries. Overall, this project might provide a lasting solution to a major problem in a well-defined field of biotechnology, that can be used in the ever growing number of countries where marker-free genetic engineering is accepted.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Low-regularity and high oscillations: numerical analysis and computation of dispersive evolution equations' under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Concept**

Partial differential equations (PDEs) play a central role in mathematics, allowing us to describe physical phenomena ranging from ultra-cold atoms (Bose–Einstein condensation) up to ultra-hot matter (nuclear fusion), from learning algorithms to fluids in the human brain. To understand nature we have to understand their qualitative behavior: existence and long time behavior of solutions, their geometric and dynamical properties – as well as to compute reliably their numerical solution. While linear problems and smooth solutions are nowadays well understood, a reliable description of ‘non-smooth’ phenomena remains one of the most challenging open problems in computational mathematics since the underlying PDEs have very complicated solutions exhibiting high oscillations and loss of regularity. This leads to huge errors, massive computational costs and ultimately provokes the failure of classical schemes. Nevertheless, ‘non-smooth phenomena’ play a fundamental role in modern physical modeling (e.g., blow-up phenomena, turbulences, high frequencies, low dispersion limits, etc.) which makes it an essential task to develop suitable numerical schemes. The overall ambition of LAHACODE is to make a crucial step towards closing this gap – addressing the fundamental question: How and to what extent can we reproduce the qualitative behavior of differential equations in a finite (discretized) world? LAHACODE is situated at the challenging frontiers of analysis and numerics. The main objective is to develop a novel class of numerical schemes for nonlinear PDEs with strong geometric structure at low regularity and high oscillations. The key idea in the construction of the new schemes is to tackle and deeply embed the underlying structure of resonances in the numerical discretizations.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Development of high-speed microscopes to study wide-scale neural activity'.

assistant: **Concept**

The dynamic of neural computation is often studied in individual cells using inserted electrodes, or using low-resolution methods such as EEG. Functional fluorescent imaging has recently emerged as a powerful complementary tool that allows single-cell resolution of relatively large networks, opening a new regime to neuroscience. However, complex brains are generally opaque and can only be studied with scanning two-photon microscopes; with the achievable depth limited to ~0.6mm, and the volume limited by the relatively slow scan.This project will develop ultrafast scanning multiphoton microscopes to image neural activity at cellular resolution over large volumes, and at greater depth. Using these we will study patterns of activity in the hippocampus, and particularly attempt to observe the pathways involved in memory retention. To increase speed we will use temporal focusing to controllably sculpt the excitation volume and enlarge the focal spot. This reduces the number of measured pixels and allows faster scanning (or larger volume), at the cost of resolution. This will allow 25x faster imaging in a resonant scanning two-photon microscope; allowing observation of many thousands of cells at once, which could reveal the wide-scale characteristic activity.We will build a second microscope that uses three-photon excitation with temporal focusing. Three-photon imaging relies on longer wavelengths that penetrate deeper into tissue, and also suppresses background fluorescence which could otherwise limit depth. Consequently, this microscope will allow high-speed imaging at depth exceeding 1mm. This allows study of information transfer across multiple layers; or provides access to the hippocampus through the intact cortex. These studies could provide crucial insights to neurosci

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Development of unglazed solar absorbers (resorting to coloured selective coatings on steel material) for building facades, and integration into heating systems (solabs)' (SOLABS).

assistant: **Innovation**

Objectives and problems to be solved: The goal is to develop an innovative solar system with a significant reduction of capital cost and unit cost of the delivered heat (target: 0.025-0.03 /kWh), a major improvement of the public acceptability (non-technical barrier) and a simplified implementation in large office, residential or industrial buildings for new or retrofit applications. R&D work on weather-resistant, coloured selective solar absorbers made of steel, will be operated as unglazed collectors in order to avoid the cost for glazing, and designed for integration in the building envelope (particularly facades).Description of the work :. Specifications for architectural integration: architectural design & integration of absorbers as facade elements, investigation of other acceptability criteria (colour, structure, shape, sizes), development of guidelines in order to facilitate better user acceptance and market penetration (see Work-packages WP1 and WP6) leading to a price reduction by mass production.2. Research on selective coatings and characterisation of the coatings: R&D on coloured selective coatings suitable for steel material, optical characterisation and durability tests (WP2, WP3, and WP4). Cheaper and more attractive coatings help to get new market shares at lower costs.3.

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Sixth Framework proposal on 'Quantitative modeling of the gal regulon'.

assistant: **Concept**

Completion of genome sequencing of several model organisms has dramatic impact on science. In the post-genomic era research efforts are focused on understanding intracellular molecular interactions underlying cellular function. Functional genomic research aims to build whole-cell models of microbes and other organisms, utilizing advancements in several areas of science. The models constructed can be useful both in studying fundamental aspects of biology, in understanding disease-cells, and in engineering c ells for industrial production of biochemicals.Regulation of gene expression is a main component in cellular function. In prokaryotic organisms the primary role of transcriptional regulation is to enhance the cells performance in changing environmental conditions. I would like to use the gal regulon as a model system to enhance the understanding of the design principles, behaviour and evolution of microbial transcriptional networks. This project aims the reconstruction and quantitative modelling of the galactose regulatory network in Escherichia coli.The galactose regulon contains genes involved in the transport and metabolism of the sugar D-galactose, and genes for two transcriptional regulators. D-galactose is important for E. coli as an energy source and also as a component required for complex polysaccharide formation. The project involves experimental verification of network interactions both in vitro and in vivo, together with evaluation of their biological significance. The transcriptional units of the gal regulon are regulated by two specific regulators (GalR and GalS) and a global regulator (CRP), responding to two major input signals, D-galactose concentration and cAMP concentration, respectively. Regulation involves combinations of different mechanisms (con

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Evaluating the effects of species composition and biodiversity on ecosystem water fluxes in a changing climate' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Sixth Framework call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Research addressing the effects of global change on ecosystem ecology has mainly focused on carbon cycling, while the consequences for ecosystem water pools and fluxes have received little attention. Given the important regulating role of the vegetation for ecosystem hydrology it is hypothesized that global change will not only affect ecosystem water relations directly (e.g. by altered precipitation patterns) but also indirectly through changes in plant water demand or altered plant species composition.The main goal of the proposed work will be to act here and to address the effects of species composition or biodiversity for ecosystem water pools and fluxes in a changing climate. In addition to established ecophysiological tools, a particular emphasis will be on the use of 18O isotopes in ecosystem water pools and fluxes to address the main goal of the study. 18O isotopes have been suggested as an indispensable tool for the understanding of ecosystem hydrology that allow a much deeper insight into patters and processes than conventional methods. Despite the high potential, however, uncertainties remain in the interpretation of d18O signals that have prevented the general application of d18O in ecological studies.In the outgoing phase of the proposed activity, these uncertainties will be addressed in experiments and observational studies. In particular, the potential of d18O in leaf water of different plants as an integrated measure of the plant's transpiration as well as the use of d18O in ecosystem water vapour to partition ecosystem evapotranspiration into the component fluxes for the validation of SVAT models will be evaluated. The improved understanding of d18O signals will finally be applied during the return phase of the activity to an ongoing climate change exper

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Seventh Framework proposal on 'ARTS, CRAFTS AND PROFESSIONS OF THE PAST THROUGH THE RESEARCHERS EYES'.

assistant: **Innovation**

The main objective which is in absolute accordance with the EU HRM policy, is to render Research and Culture accessible to the public through exhibitions and events, which will be organised on the night of 28th September 2007 with audiovisual and multimedia effects, at venues where research is conducted or play an integral part in the cultural life of the city. The public, adults and students will have the unprecedented opportunity to visit venues normally inaccessible, will interact with researchers in person and will be inspired by the excitement of research and the enchanting quest for discoveries in every field. At the NHRF in Athens, a unique exhibition on arts, crafts and professions of the Middle Ages will enable the public to see them through the eyes of the researcher. In the Byzantine Museum, situated nearby an exhibition of medieval manuscripts along with an educational programme will maximize the effects of the event by offering a view and feel of actual tools of the time and the artefacts created by them. The National Observatory of Athens, will hold an unprecedented night event on the History of Astronomy. The Museum of Byzantine Culture in Thessaloniki, awarded the Best European Museum in 2005 by the EC, will offer the public the opportunity to access its laboratories. The 8th Bureau of Byzantine Antiquities in Ioannina, will organise a guided tour of the impressive Castle and the Museum in it. The programme will last 6 months. The exhibitions and events will be designed and organised in the first 3 months, the implementation in the 4th, the evaluation in the 5th and dissemination of the experience gained from the project in the 6th month.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Motiliy in the third domain of life: the haloarchaeal way to move', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The first representatives of the third domain of life, Archaea, were isolated from particularly harsh environments. Long it was thought that all archaea are ‘extremophiles’, but recently archaea were discovered in many temperate habitats, including the human gut, sea and soil, where they perform key roles in biochemical cycles.Archaea are the least explored domain of life and little is known about the mechanisms underlying motility and adhesion. Understanding these processes is especially timely since the widespread occurrence of archaeal species in environments including the human body is becoming more and more apparent.Archaeal motility has initially been studied using a thermophilic model organism, which has revealed that the structure responsible for swimming behavior of archaea is the ‘archaellum’. The archaellum has structural homology with bacterial type IV pili, which are at the basis of the pathogenicity of many Gram negative bacteria. However, the archaellum is rotating and thereby functionally resembles the bacterial flagellum.Taking advantage of this initial expertise and knowledge on archaeal motility available in the host laboratory, this project aims to focus on the mesophilic euryarchaeal model: Haloferax volcanii. This model is very appealing to study the molecular mechanism underlying motility, because genes encoding the archaellum components are linked with those of the bacterial chemotaxis pathway in haloarchaea. In addition, this model is one of the few genetically tractable archaeal systems that allows for advanced engineering, offering the unique option to study the mechanism of rotational switching, which influences the cells ‘decision’ to move or stay.The proposed research is important from both fundamental and medical perspective.

user: Describe how 'Mechanics-tailored Functional Ceramics via Dislocations' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Advanced functional ceramics play an indispensable role in our modern society and they are typically engineered by point defects or interfaces. The potential of dislocations (one-dimensional atomic distortions) in functional ceramics has been greatly underestimated until most recently. Exciting proofs-of-concept have been demonstrated for dislocation-tuned functionality such as electrical conductivity, superconductivity, and ferroelectric properties, revealing a new horizon of dislocation technology in ceramics for a wide range of next-generation applications from sensors, actuators to energy converters.However, it is widely known that ceramics are hard (difficult to deform) and brittle (easy to fracture), making it a great challenge to tailor dislocations in ceramics. This pressing bottleneck hinders the dislocation-tuned functionality and the true realization of dislocation technology. To break through this bottleneck, MECERDIS employs mechanics-guided design coupled with external fields (thermal, light illumination, electric field) to manipulate the 3 most fundamental factors of dislocation mechanics: nucleation, multiplication, and motion. These external fields greatly impact the charged dislocation cores in ceramics and open new routes for mechanical tuning. With these novel approaches, MECERDIS aims to generate, control, and stabilize dislocations in large plastic volumes up to mm-size with high density up to 10^15/m^2 to allow large-scale preparation for functionality assessment. Another essential benefit is, dislocations are an effective tool to combat the brittleness of ceramics by improving the damage tolerance and fracture toughness.MECERDIS will not only fulfil the key prerequisite of dislocation-tuned functionality but also secure the mechanical integrity a
