Galen Bergsten is part of the 2024 NASA ExoExplorers cohort (exoplanets.nasa.gov/exep/exopag/exoexplorers/exoexplorers-welcome/), a program that aims to enable the professional development of a cohort of graduate students and/or postdocs in exoplanet research (“ExoExplorers”). The full title of his talk is "Demographics of Earth-sized Planets in the Habitable Zone, from Kepler to the Habitable Worlds Observatory."
The ExoExplorers program, sponsored by NASA’s Exoplanet Exploration Program Office and the ExoPAG Executive Committee, will focus on the professional development of ~12 graduate student and/or postdoc researchers (“ExoExplorers”) at US and international[1] institutions. Each member of the cohort will be featured in a webinar that will be live-streamed to the exoplanet community, helping to increase their visibility within the field and build internal and external research networks. The cohort will also learn from the experiences of established exoplanet researchers and engineers in the field (“ExoGuides”) via a combination of tailored presentations and small group discussions.
