Indian Centre for Space Physics, Kolkata
Organizes
3rd Young Astrophysicists of Today’s India (YATI3)
7 - 9 October, 2025
3rd YATI rises from the ashes in ICSP’s own new integrated campus in Kolkata. This meeting is primarily to celebrate the opening up of the curiosity, passion, and innovation of the next generation of astrophysicists, astronomers and space scientists. From undergraduate students to postdoctoral fellows, this platform invites young minds to share their work, exchange ideas, and build lasting collaborations. Apart from the talks of the Scholars and post-docs, review talks and panel discussions will make the meeting very informative.
UG/PG students who are not currently involved in research but have a keen interest in astronomy and astrophysics are especially encouraged to attend the conference.
