The European Planetary Science Congress (EPSC) is one of largest conferences that combines all scientific topics related to planets in the solar system and extrasolar systems. It covered the whole scope of planetary science. The Congress took place at the Centro de Congressos do Estoril, Cascais, Portugal, from 7 to 12 September 2014.

I joined the Congress in order to present my current state of research in the field of extrasolar planets and gave a talk about “Orbital parameter estimation of extrasolar multi-planet systems by Transit Time Variation”.

This Congress offered an excellent scientific platform to present my results and to exchange with international experts and other doctoral students. I got new ideas and approaches for my own studies and also new impressions in recent fields of research.

It was a highly successful and informative meeting to develop new ideas and to network with international experts in Europe.
