216 Curriculum Vitæ omy Center (ESAC, in Spain) and the Laboratoire d’Astrophysique de Grenoble (in France). A great part of this thesis is based on observations with the superb Spitzer Space Telescope. Although (unfortunately) one cannot visit this telescope to collect data, the incredible amount of IRS spectra I have reduced and analyzed during my thesis, in addition to hundreds of optical spectra, has transformed me into an avid spectroscopist. The results of these projects are presented in this thesis, most of which have also appeared as separate publications in The Astrophysical Journal and Astronomy & Astrophysics. I have presented the results achieved during these 4 years at several international conferences and schools: Gainesville, Baltimore, Pasadena and New York (USA), Leiden (the Netherlands), El Escorial (Spain), Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), and Garching (Germany). Furthermore, noting that a greater interaction between specialists in stars, in protoplanetary disks, and in exo-planets was lacking, I worked to establish an environment where this interaction could be furnished. This became the 2009 EARA workshop at the Lorentz Center in Leiden, entitled “From Disks to Planets: Learning from Starlight”, that I co-organized. You could say I’m a lucky girl, huh? This upcoming fall I will continue my research in astrophysics as the Harlan J. Smith Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Texas at Austin (USA).
