“…When complete, the facility will consist of ten 1.4 m diameter relocatable telescopes laid out in an equilateral-Y configuration, with 28 separate telescope pads to accommodate array reconfiguration (Creech-Eakman et al, 2010b). Full descriptions of the MROI capabilities and progress have been presented recently by Santoro et al (2010), Jorgensen and Mozurkewich (2010), Farris et al (2010), andFisher et al (2010).…”

We present a review of the interplay between the evolution of circumstellar disks and the formation of planets, both from the perspective of theoretical models and dedicated observations. Based on this, we identify and discuss fundamental questions concerning the formation and evolution of circumstellar disks and planets which can be addressed in the near future with optical and infrared long-baseline interferometers. Furthermore, the importance of complementary observations with long-baseline (sub)millimeter interferometers and high-sensitivity infrared observatories is outlined.
