Conclusion





RT8 is not a « stand-alone » component of
ENSEMBLES!!!
Its success will depend upon the close interaction
and collaboration with all other RTs and with the
coordination center
In addition to what has been proposed for the
contract, new ideas can be stimulated within
ENSEMBLES and be communicated to RT8 for a
broader dissemination
Additional Workshops and scientist exchange
programs can be accommodated by RT8 at the
request of ENSEMBLES members
