Dear Colleague,


On behalf of the Local and Scientific Organizing Committees, it is our 
pleasure to invite you to attend the conference


MODEST-24: Exploring Dense Stellar Systems Across Cosmic Time


 From 19th to 23rd August, 2024 in Warsaw, Poland (Nicolaus Copernicus 
Astronomical Center of Polish Academy of Sciences).


Scientific Rationale:This will be the 22nd annual international 
conference in the MODEST (Modeling and Observing DEnse STellar systems) 
meeting series. MODEST-24 will bring together researchers working on 
dense stellar systems and create a space for theorists and observers to 
connect. Our goal is to encourage a friendly exchange of knowledge, 
ideas and tools among groups working on similar topics and research 
questions. We look forward to hosting a collaborative and enriching 
experience for all participants. The scientific agenda of the conference 
will cover a broad range of topics including but not limited to


• Numerical approaches to modelling stellar systems and their constituents

• Observational properties of dense stellar systems in different 
environments

• Formation of dense stellar systems across cosmic time

• Stellar multiplicity, exotica, and transients in star clusters

• Compact objects and gravitational wave sources


Conference Format:  The meeting schedule will comprise contributed talks 
and interactive discussions, spanning approximately 6 to 7 hours each 
day from August 19th to 23rd. Ample time will be allocated for 
meaningful discussions, smaller parallel gatherings, participant 
interactions, and the opportunity to explore Warsaw during the summer.
