Short description: i-CONN is a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Networks (ITN) project. The network, consisting of ten universities and three European partner organisations, connects scientists from the diverse fields of astrophysics, informatics, ecology, geomorphology, hydrology, neurosciences, systems biology and social science. i-CONN aims at educating a new cohort of researchers in the developing field of connectivity science. Our goal for the next five to ten years: connect the various disciplines and together create interdisciplinary real-life applications.
