Since 2015, the Emerging Researchers in Exoplanetary Science (ERES)
conference has provided a venue for early-career researchers in exoplanetary
astronomy, astrophysics, and planetary science to share their research,
network, and build new collaborations. ERES stands out in that it is
spearheaded by early-career researchers, providing a unique attendance
experience for the participants and a professional experience for the
organizers. In this Bulletin, we share experiences and lessons learned from the
perspective of the organizing committee for the 2023 edition of ERES. For this
eighth ERES conference, we hosted over 100 participants in New Haven, CT, for a
three-day program. This manuscript is aimed primarily toward groups of
early-career scientists who are planning a conference for their fields of
study. We anticipate that this Bulletin will continue dialogue within the
academic community about best practices for equitable event organization.
