Summary
Planets form in disks of gas and dust around young stars and are initially surrounded by gaseous envelopes. Over time, these envelopes can evolve into the atmospheres we observe today. This workshop will bring together international experts to study this full evolutionary pathway, from early formation to mature planetary atmospheres, providing a more complete picture of how planets form.
