DESCRIPTION:Alberto Parolini (KAIST\, Korea)\nThe top quark can be natural
 ly singled out from other fermions in the Standard Model due to its large 
 mass\, of the order of the electroweak scale. We follow this reasoning in 
 models of pseudo Nambu Goldstone Boson composite Higgs. We consider a new 
 class of flavour models\, where the top quark obtains its mass via partial
  compositeness\, while the lighter fermions acquire their masses by a defo
 rmation generated at a higher flavour scale. One interesting feature of su
 ch scenario is that it can avoid all the flavour constraints without the n
 eed of flavour symmetries. We focus on the case of the minimal SO(5)/SO(4)
  coset with top partners in the four-plet and singlet of SO(4). In the dow
 n-type sector\, some degree of alignment is required if all down-type quar
 ks are elementary: we also discuss bottom partial compositeness.
