SUMMARY:Looking into stars' cradle: results and challenges from an RV foll
 ow-up of infant and young planets - Mario Damasso (Torino)

DESCRIPTION:Detecting planets around young stars\, and in particular measu
 ring their masses\, is a key step to test models of planet formation and e
 volution\, and migration mechanisms. Nowadays\, with the TESS photometric 
 observations providing interesting transiting candidates\, members of youn
 g (e.g.\, Taurus\, Cepheus) and intermediate age (e.g. Coma Ber\, Hyades) 
 associations are becoming popular targets for radial velocity (RV) follow-
 up campaigns. Among others\, they are monitored by the Italian GAPS (Globa
 l Architecture of Planetary Systems) long-term project\, which takes advan
 tage of the HARPS-N and GIANO spectrographs mounted at the TNG. In my talk
  I will give a brief overview of recent results which are contributing to 
 populating the mass-radius diagram of young planets. In particular\, I wil
 l discuss some promising systems monitored by GAPS\, presenting results an
 d underlining critical points which have emerged during a four-years long 
 experience.
