Description of the joint Research Training Project. B.1.1 Project Overview Plate tectonics has been the major unifying theory in geosciences for the last 40 years. By linking the evolution of the Earth’s surface to the dynamics of the deep Earth, it has provided a coherent framework to understand the formation of mountain ranges and oil-rich sedimentary basins, as well as the distribution of major catastrophic events such as volcanic eruptions and earthquakes. Yet, until recently, mantle convection and plate tectonics have been studied as independent systems. In convection studies, plates were generally considered as rigid rafts dragged along by the convecting mantle. On the other hand, "lithospheric" studies focused on the petrological evolution and on the deformation of the crust, often neglecting even the lithospheric mantle. This duality is now over. The last decade has seen a clear evolution. We now understand that plate tectonics is an essential feature of mantle convection. However, the processes allowing convection in the mantle to produce plate tectonics at the Earth's surface as well as many aspects of the interaction between the convective flow and the plates remain poorly understood. How does plate tectonics actually work? To answer this question, the CRYSTAL2PLATE Initial Training Network (ITN) will study the interactions between lithospheric plates and the convecting mantle. The research projects will investigate: (1) how plates modify or are affected by convection, (2) the role of the preexisting structure of the plates on the deformation distribution, (3) the coupling between chemical and physical processes, in particular through partial melting, fluids percolation, and fluid-rock reactions. Linking chemical and physical processes in the mantle requires understanding the relation of crystal-scale processes to the large- scale dynamics. Crystal- and rock-scale processes, such as viscous and elastic deformation, melt transport and reactions, modify the composition, microstructure, and physical properties of mantle rocks, which are the key for interpreting geophysical observations in terms of temperature, composition, and deformation in the mantle. On the other hand, small-scale processes depend on the large-scale temperature, stress, and pressure structure in the mantle. Understanding the interactions between physical and chemical processes at various scales in the mantle is thus fundamental to comprehend its dynamics and hence the onset of plate tectonics. The study of the coupling between th...

Description of the joint Research Training Project. B.1.1 Project Overview The NAMASEN network focuses on the topic of Neuroelectronics, bringing together leading European laboratories and centers of excellence in neurobiology, electrophysiology, computational neurosciences, microelectronics, material sciences, and nanotechnologies. The ultimate aim is to lay the foundation of a virtual institute for the multidisciplinary study of neuroengineering and network- neurosciences that will train a new generation of scientists and professionals and that will contribute to Europe’s leading role in scientific innovation. We strongly believe in the unique training potential of our consortium on neuroelectronics, i.e. the analysis and synthesis of neuronal networks using artificial devices able to cooperate with neurons, thereby crossing the barriers between artificial and biological devices. Young researchers will be trained in-depth in a small number of research methodologies and simultaneously exposed to the wider field of knowledge through the collaborations and the exchanges with other laboratories. Individual projects will be grouped together across different levels of analysis and different centers into research teams, giving the early-stage-researchers (ESRs) a unique chance to develop a true capacity for interdisciplinary work. Our network has a strong involvement of industry in both research and training: the specific perspectives of applying neuroelectronics and network-neurosciences to retinal neuroprosthetics and to the development of preclinical drug- screening tools were among the inspiring ideas of this ITN, since its initial conception. As a linking language between levels of analysis and technologies, NAMASEN places a strong emphasis on the computational description of complex systems (electrophysiological / electrical) behavior, thus developing the theoretical tools necessary to interpret, understand and reengineer the neurobiological counterpart in neuroelectronic hybrids. Finally, this ITN clearly recognizes the need for researchers to define basic science questions motivated by a keen awareness of possible clinical and industrial applications in the biomedical and pharmaceutical fields.
