user: Draft an impact statement for 'REPLICA2: Large-area replication of biological anti-adhesive nanosurfaces', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The project aims at designing and optimizing a pre-industrial process to produce artificial biomimetic anti-adhesive polymer/metal surfaces by direct copy of the morphology of a natural water-repellent substrates such as lotus leaves, and subsequent modification thereof. Thus, morphological modifications are exploited rather than chemical treatments to obtain water/ice/particle-repellent surfaces. The experimental procedure, devised in the ERC Starting Grant ""Bio-inspired Hierarchical Super Nanomaterials"" (BIHSNAM), has proven to be an extremely simple yet efficient way to exploit natural nano- and micro-structural hierarchical designs for the production of durable artificial antiadhesive surfaces. A modification and improvement of this process would lead to a considerable simplification in existing industrial production techniques, with the possibility of creating nanoscale features on large surfaces with a relatively uncomplicated and economical, and therefore industrially attractive method. The process under consideration should in this project be technically verified, improved and taken to a pre-commercial stage, for applications in industrial sectors such as white goods, automotive, air transport, and possibly advanced construction materials.""

user: Explain how 'Evolving FIRE into a 5G-Oriented Experimental Playground for Vertical industries' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

Key industrial sectors e.g. automotive, are rapidly transformed by digital and communication technologies leading to the fourth industrial revolution. New ones are in the making, e.g. Smart Cities, which inspire a new breed of applications and services. The salient characteristic of these sectors, known as verticals, is that they are rapidly becoming open ecosystems built on top of common physical infrastructures and resources. This requires a high degree of technological convergence among vertical industries empowering them with enhanced technical capacity to trigger the development of new, innovative products, applications and services.5G network infrastructures and embodied technologies are destined to “become a stakeholder driven, holistic environment for technical and business innovation integrating networking, computing and storage resources into one programmable and unified infrastructure”. It is this 5G vision that when it is further projected to accommodate verticals raises a number of technical issues Motivated by them, 5GinFIRE project aspires to address two interlinked questions:- Q1: How such a holistic and unified environment should look like?- Q2: How can 5GinFIRE host and integrate verticals and concurrently deal with reconciling their competing and opposing requirements?Addressing these key questions, 5GinFIRE main technical objective is to build and operate an Open, and Extensible 5G NFV-based Reference (Open5G-NFV) ecosystem of Experimental Facilities that integrates existing FIRE facilities with new vertical-specific ones and enables experimentation of vertical industries.In order to guarantee architectural and technological convergence the proposed environment will be built in alignment with on-going standardization and open source activities.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Digitally-enhanced multi-level solution for smart human-centric remanufacturing', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The European remanufacturing industry is crucial for the sustainable transition of Europe, thanks to thesavings in energy, materials and functionality that is guaranteed by the process. In fact, the socio-economic benefits of remanufacturing, in terms of number of workers, skills development andtechnological uptake, are as impactful as the environmental benefits. However, to future-proof theEuropean remanufacturing industry and increase its competitiveness, the obstacles facing the humanworker need to be addressed as a matter of strategic urgency. Currently, established remanufacturingsectors recognized the barriers in the limited automation, poor human inclusion, lack of traceability andrestricted use of digitalization. Hence, rEUman aims at developing and demonstrating a novel paradigmof human-centric remanufacturing approach for the European industry; acting at factory and value-chainlevels. At factory level, the main industrial need is to guarantee high regeneration rates of theremanufactured products and to achieve traceability of the remanufacturing process-chain. While atvalue-chain level, the main industrial need is to guarantee stability in terms of volume and quality of thepost-use products. rEUman shall demonstrate the new remanufacturing paradigm, which is intrinsicallyhuman-safe, target-driven in regeneration and certification, flexible while facing variability in post-useparts, robust and replicable to new circular business cases. To that end, rEUman addresses the call topicby (i) developing cutting edge remanufacturing approaches (factory level) and integrating them into thevalue-chain , (ii) demonstrating functional retention in three sectors (Automotive, Home appliances andOptoelectronics), (iii) introducing traceability in remanufacturing by implementi

user: Explain how 'Mechanics of cells: the role of intermediate filaments' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Innovation**

The mechanical properties of each of the over 200 cell types in the human body are perfectly well adapted to their function. The large variety of viscoelastic profiles, ranging from soft brain cells to stiff cartilage, and the temporal variability in the mechanical stress response when stationary cells begin to migrate, e.g. in embryogenesis, wound healing or cancer metastasis, is reflected in a surprisingly small number of molecular building blocks. Three distinct filament systems, actin filaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments (IFs), self-organize into a wealth of structural units, collectively termed the cytoskeleton. The main molecular players of this remarkable composite material are largely known. However, from a physics point of view, in particular IFs are poorly understood, despite their importance in health and disease and astonishing mechanical properties, like extreme extensibility and high flexibility. It is not known, how these properties are encoded in the molecular interactions of the protein filament and how they feed into the mechanical behavior of a whole cell. The aim of the proposed research is thus to establish a structure-mechanics-function relationship for this important component of the cytoskeleton. The genetic complexity of the IF protein family with 70 members that are expressed in a tissue specific manner requires a strategic approach involving well-defined model systems and the combination of in vitro and cell work. Direct mechanical testing by applying stress and in situ high-resolution imaging will link mechanical properties to molecular interactions in the hierarchical IF architecture. The results of these in vitro studies will be related to cell experiments to decipher the link between IF type and cell mechanics. The work progr

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'The Dependence Receptors notion: from a cell biology paradigm to anti-cancer targeted therapy' (DEPREC).

assistant: **Concept**

While it is assumed that transmembrane receptors are active only in the presence of ligand, we have proposed that some receptors may also be active in the absence of ligand stimulation. These receptors, named “dependence receptors” (DRs) share the ability to transmit two opposite signals: in the presence of ligand, these receptors transduce various classical “positive” signals, whereas in the absence of ligand, they trigger apoptosis. The expression of dependence receptors thus creates cellular states of dependence for survival on their respective ligands.  To date, more than fifteen such receptors have been identified, including the netrin-1 receptors DCC (Deleted in Colorectal Cancer) and UNC5H1-4, some integrins, RET, EPHA4, TrkA, TrkC and the Sonic Hedgehog receptor Patched (Ptc). Even though the interest in this notion is increasing, two main questions remain poorly understood: (i) how very different receptors, with only modest homology, are able to trigger apoptosis when unengaged by their respective ligand, and (ii) what are the respective biological roles of this pro-apoptotic activity in vivo. We have hypothesized that the DRs pro-apoptotic activity is a mechanism that determines and regulates the territories of migration/localization of cells during embryonic development. We also demonstrated that this may be a mechanism that limits tumor growth and metastasis. The goal of the present project is, based on the study of a relatively small number of these receptors –i.e., DCC, UNC5H, RET, TrkC, Ptc- with a specifically larger emphasis on netrin-1 receptors, to address (i) the common and divergent cell signaling mechanisms triggering apoptosis downstream of these receptors and (ii) the physiological and pathological roles of these DRs on development of neoplasia i

user: Describe how 'NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF SEDIMENT ENTRAINMENT' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Sediment transport is important for predicting the impact of human intervention on river and coastal systems. The numerical modelling of individual particles on the bed of a turbulent open channel is particularly difficult because it not only involves the correct modelling of the turbulence but also the movement of the particles themselves. This project is aimed at investigating the influence of turbulence on the entrainment and movement of coarse particles on the bed of an open channel. In order to do this it will be necessary to couple existing in-house discrete element and computational fluid dynamics codes. The final code will be able to correctly model the turbulence in the channel and around the particles. From a geomorphological point of view, the research will be a major contribution to the understanding of sediment dynamics by focusing on the movement of individual particles, turbulence around these discrete particles and the role of turbulent eddies in particle entrainment. It will lead to improved understanding of bed mobility in rivers with non-cohesive sediment. Simulations will be carried out to investigate the influence of turbulence on the entrainment of the particles. We shall look at factors that influence the stability of the particles, such as: drag and lift forces, degree of protrusion, blocking by particles upstream, effect of particles downstream on the points of rotation of a moving particle.""

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Enterprise application interoperability via Internet-Integration for SMEs, Governmental Organisations and Intermediaries in the new European Union' (GENESIS).

assistant: **Concept**

During the last years there has been substantial technological progress in the area of e-Business, in the European Union and internationally. However, despite the e-Business evolution, the penetration of new internet-based technologies in the business environment is limited, especially in countries where the majority of enterprises lies in the area of small and medium (SMEs) or very small enterprises (VSEs) and also in the New European, candidate and associate countries.The GENESIS project will develop a prototype system to enable the typical, usually small and medium, East-European enterprise to conduct its Business transactions over Internet, by interconnecting its main transactional software applications and systems with those of collaborating enterprises, banking/social insurance institutions and governmental bodies, with respect to the evolving legal and regulatory status.A typical business case of GENESIS will include the following: The enterprise will produce business documents through its existing ERP application or via a web browser (if no application is available) in order to submit it to another collaborative enterprise. Through the GENESIS server the document will be stored and forwarded to the final recipient ensuring security and confidentiality of data. The recipient will retrieve the document and automatically incorporate it into its existing application (or web browser in case no application exists).The project is coordinated by Singular Software SA and implemented by a consortium of 15 partners from Austria, Cyprus, the Czech Republic, Germany, Greece, Italy, Lithuania, Romania, Poland, Turkey and the United Kingdom representing more than 200,000 end-user installations of enterprise applications. The duration of the GENESIS project is 30 months.

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Ambgiuity, Data and Preferences for Information - Theory and Applications'.

assistant: **Objectives**

We study decision making informed by data. We examine the relation between objective information provided by data and decision maker's beliefs about uncertain outcomes. We also study the evaluation of information by economic agents. We then apply the derived theoretical insights to models of technological adaptation to climate change and to a study of market participation and market structure.We start by providing a representation of preferences when decisions are informed by data. The representation captures the idea that information from data is perceived as ambiguous. We identify the decision maker's beliefs which combine the objective information in the data (frequency, number and type of observations) with the decision maker's subjective characteristics (perception of similarity and perception of ambiguity). We determine the decision maker's degrees of optimism and pessimism and relate them to his preferences for precision of information. This allows us to derive the value of information.Next, we apply the representation to a model of technological adaptation in response to a change in climate conditions. We study the role of agent heterogeneity in the process of adoption. By experimenting with new technologies, optimists provide the public good of information, but also obtain lower average returns. Pessimists use this information to choose the optimal technology in the long-run. When the share of optimists is low, steady states are inefficient. We study the impact of subsidies for early adopters and provision of additional information on successful adoption.The representation is also used to model market participation decisions when markets differ w.r.t. the quality of information they provide. Agents self-select into markets based on their preferences for informa

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Cognitive and Electrophysiological Mechanisms of Visual Short-Term Memory Updating' (2007-2013).

assistant: **Concept**

Most of our everyday activities require holding visual information in our minds and using it to guide our actions. Visual short-term memory (VSTM) is the system that provides this ability. Importantly, the information in VSTM should be continuously updated, in order to accommodate task-relevant input from the environment and remove irrelevant and outdated information. However, the cognitive and electrophysiological processes that underlie VSTM updating are still unknown. To this end, I have developed an updating version of the standard change detection paradigm that is used in VSTM research. The present proposal aims at using this paradigm to address three objectives. Objective 1: Specifying the behavioral characteristics of VSTM updating. The experiments in this part of the proposal will examine the cognitive processes that enable updating VSTM, namely, entering, changing and removing information. Objective 2: Examining the relationship between updating and the creation of a compound VSTM representation. Previous work and theory suggested that the items maintained in VSTM create a bound, unitary representation that includes the relational associations among them. This finding implies that whenever any of the items in VSTM is updated, the entire compound representation has to be updated or re-created. This part earch will investigate the involvement of VSTM updating in markers for binding among VSTM items. Also, it will examine the role of binding in creating long-term memory representations. Objective 3: Examining the electrophysiological correlates of VSTM updating. Previous work on VSTM used the event-related potential (ERP) methodology to identify a physiological marker for its capacity. This part of the proposal will use this marker to examine the electrophysiologi
