NExScI Exoplanet Talk Series

Exoplanet talks are typically held as part of the larger IPAC astronomy colloquia. Past exoplanet specific talks are listed below. Click here to see the complete IPAC colloquia schedule. Solange Ramirez also keeps a calendar of Astrotalks and Informal Meetings in the Pasadena area; click here to view this list.

A calendar of astrophysics and exoplanet talks (including slides for most) presented at JPL can be found here.
