Abstract:

Tremendous progresses have been made in recent years in extra solar planetary science improving our understand of the planetary system formation and evolution. I have been involved in direct imaging detections of exo-planets and discoveries of extreme debris disks. In my talk, I will discuss about progresses and future prospects in these two fields : exoplanet imaging and extreme debris disks.
