WELCOME
The 2017 AAS KAM invites professional astronomers, faculty, post-docs, graduate and undergraduate students in astronomy in Kentucky and the surrounding area to a one day science meeting. The purpose of the meeting is to foster closer ties within the local astronomical community and to support research and teaching endeavors in astronomy.

We solicit 15 minute oral and poster contributions, especially from students and post-docs. If you would like to contribute a poster or talk, please go to
and submit title and abstract (max. 250 words) by March 29, 2017. Also state your preference for a poster, or a oral contribution. Depending on the number of abstracts, we may invite some posters to be converted to 5 or 10 minute oral presentations, or (less likely) vice versa.
