2025 Sagan Exoplanet Summer Workshop Posters and Pops


Poster/Pop Submission Site

The poster/pop deadline is July 14, 2025. No submissions via email will be accepted.


Poster Pops

Pops are oral advertisements for your poster. If you submit a pop, you must submit a poster.

In-person attendees should submit 2 slides, and will give their poster pop in-person.

Remote attendees who submit a poster can submit a recorded poster pop that should be no longer than 90 seconds. If space allows, these will be included in the pop presentations during the meeting. Inclusion in the in-person agenda is limited by the number of slots available (40), and will therefore be based on the relevance to the topics covered by the workshop, as well as adherence to the 90-second maximum length. Remote attendees will not present a live pop.

All pops will be posted on the workshop website. If you are submitting a poster and a pop, you will need to make two separate submissions. Do not forget to add your name to your poster and pop.

The poster pop schedule can be found here.

Posters

Both in-person and remote attendees are invited to submit electronic posters, which will be grouped by science area and added to the workshop website. All posters must contain original research and be broadly related to the topic of the workshop. We will not accomodate unrelated topics. Please only include logos from institutions with which you are affiliated.

In-person poster presenters may also bring a printout of their poster to mount on the provided poster boards on a first-submitted, first-served basis; due to space considerations, we may not be able to accommodate all in-person posters. The poster printout should have maximum dimensions of 4 feet (120 cm) wide by 4 feet (120 cm) high. We do not have the ability to print posters here at Caltech, but there is a nearby Fedex facility if on-site printing is needed.

In-person poster presenters are numbered in alphabetical order (by last name) in the table below. In-person attendees should hang their poster on the poster board corresponding to this number. Remote poster presentations are listed at the end of the table.
