Abstract

The study of extra-solar planets currently motivates a number of large scale observation programs, and also new developments for dedicated instruments. Such programs involve a wide range of observational techniques, from either space-based or ground-based telescopes, including high contrast imaging, photometry, spectroscopy or interferometry. After a brief overview, we discuss here if, how and for which part, the specificities of the Dome C site can significantly contribute to this general observation strategy.
