About Exoclimes: The 7th edition of the Exoclimes conference series, organized by the Trottier Institute for Research on Exoplanets, will take place in Montreal, Canada, from July 7-11, 2025 at the Université de Montréal, with a precursor 2-day summer school for early-career researchers on July 3-4, 2025. Over the course of the week, we will host a range of Keynote Reviews, Review talks, Evening discussion topics, and contributed talks, as well as poster presentation sessions. The conference covers a wide range of topics across climate studies, and we anticipate a diverse audience from PhD students through to senior faculty from astronomy and planetary sciences. In true Exoclimes fashion this is interspersed with long excursion breaks/free time/discussion time. In keeping with the spirit of past Exoclimes meetings, the conference will host around 200 delegates attending in person to encourage close interactions among participants where all participants are hosted at the Université de Montréal for accommodation, meals, and the conference itself.
