PTI. SOILBIO CSIC

Interdisciplinary Thematic Platform (PTI) of the CSIC committed to the study and preservation of soil as a fundamental natural resource.

The objective of the PTI is to enhance the impact and quality of scientific and technical research related to soils, with a primary focus on agricultural sciences, but open to collaboration with interested groups from other subfields. The specific objectives are:

• Facilitate communication and collaboration between platform groups through regular activities.
• To promote collaboration in the CSIC's soils field with companies and other public bodies by offering an updated and coordinated directory of soil groups and specialists across a wide range of disciplines and biogeographical fields.
• Support participating groups in their search for and participation in national and international calls for proposals, promoting coordinated collaboration among different groups within the network.
• Identify and promote outstanding initiatives in the area of soils, such as long-term experiments that can be used in a network.
