In addition to invited and contributed talks on the above themes, poster sessions will be organized each day in the evening and during coffee breaks in the day time. It is our intention to have the posters on display throughout the conference to allow for sufficient visibility and scope of interactions.
Session of Future Directions
We also intend to plan one stand-alone session at the end of the conference which will be dedicated towards summarizing the understanding gained from the presentations. In this session, discussions will be held to plan coordinated research activities – cutting across sub-disciplines to address the science of living around active stars; this is expected to have a tangible impact on future research directions in this emergent and exciting field which looks at life in the context of the proximate astrophysical environment and relevant physical processes.
Outreach Activities
Taking advantage of the presence of diverse experts from around the world, and consultation with the IAU Office of Astronomy Outreach and the IAU Office for Astronomy Development, we intend to plan lectures and outreach activities (before or after the symposium) for the benefit of the regional community.
