News: 30 May 2022. After grading 130 abstracts, the SOC has published the programme for the six sessions on Wed 29th and Thu 30th. Eventually, there will be 10 invited and 12 contributed talks. The rest of abstracts are accepted as ePosters. Full programme with links to abstracts of invited and contributed talks in the "Exoplanets in the 2020s" external webpage

Recent surveys of exoplanets have revealed an amazing, and yet unexplained, diversity of planets orbiting other stars. The key to understanding and exploiting this diversity is to study the architectures, dynamics, atmospheres, environments and evolution of these planetary systems. These exoplanets are unique laboratories that hold the potential to transform our understanding of planet formation, physics, and habitability. With the recent advances in the field of exoplanets, including the theory, observation, and instrumentation, we have new opportunities to place the Solar System and the Earth's ecosystem in a broader context. This two-day, six-block EAS symposium aims at bringing together the European community interested in the field of exoplanets, with a particular focus on advances made in the field thanks to high resolution spectroscopy observations.
