CSIC Thematic Network on Cultural Heritage and Network on Science and Technology for the Conservation of Cultural Heritage Instituto de Recursos Naturales y Agrobiología de Sevilla, CSIC, Apartado de Correos 1052, 41080 Sevilla (Spain) The field of Cultural Heritage has been actively studied by several research groups in different parts of the world. Within the sixth and seventh Framework Program of the EU, the EU ARTECH project (Access, Research and Technology for the conservation of the European Cultural Heritage) [1], and its successor CHARISMA (Cultural Heritage Advanced Research Infrastructures: Synergy for a Multidisciplinary Approach to Conservation /Restoration) [2], a consortium among 13 internationally distinguished European infrastructures devoted to artwork conservation, offer a coherent set of possibilities to access to the most advanced scientific instrumentations and knowledge on the field of cultural heritage studies. In Spain, particularly in Andalusia, over the past decade, multi-disciplinary research has been carried out in the interface between art, archaeology, biology and solid state science. The Andalusian Government has become involved; they promoted different programs with the aim to support new advances in this area. The Institute for Natural Resources and Agrobiology of Seville, the Fine Arts Schools of the University of Seville, and the University of Malaga are involved in obtaining and developing this interface using new strategies to support the field of cultural heritage. The Cultural Heritage Group at the Materials Science Institute of Seville has an extensive expertise in the advancement of conservation science and the characterisation of materials and alteration processes. A strong effort has been made in the last few years to develop innovative methodologies and techniques using synchrotron radiation sources. These advancements have contributed to the knowledge of cultural heritage and conservation science.
