DESCRIPTION:\nSince the discovery of its circumstellar dust disk in 1984\,
  the 20 Myr star beta Pictoris has been intensively monitored from the UV 
 to the mm wavelengths\, using a variety of techniques: spectroscopy\, high
  contrast imaging\, photometry\, interferometry\, astrometry. It is so far
  the only system hosting a disk of dust and gas\, some comets\, and two pl
 anets\, one revealed by high contrast imaging and one by radial velocity s
 tudies. Such a variety of observations of a system is unique.\n\nThe beta 
 Pictoris system is now regarded as a remote laboratory of planet formation
 . It has also become an ideal system to test new instruments and new appro
 aches\, such as the combination of different techniques on a single target
 .\n\nI will summarize the current knowledge and open questions on this sys
 tem. I will highlight the gain provided by the combination of different te
 chniques for the study of this system\, and\, more generally\, the potenti
 al of combining techniques for the study of planetary systems
