Title: A study of diverse exoplanet atmospheres from hot Jupiters to hot Neptunes

Every planet is special just like every child. With thousands of exoplanets discovered to date, we have seen an incredibly more diverse landscape of exoplanets compared to our solar system planets. To better understand exoplanets we need to collect and study large datasets to form statistically robust insights similar to how we have learned about stars and galaxies. I will talk about atmospheric studies of individual hot Jupiters and hot Neptune exoplanets and how they are connected to our understanding of exoplanet atmospheres at large.
