A variation on the exoplanet theme is the SPADES (Search for Planets Around Detached Eclipsing Systems) project which is designed to look for Jupiter-sized substellar companions orbiting around eclipsing binaries: http://www.variablestarssouth.org/index.php/science-case-for-spades. This is run by Variable Stars South (part of the RASNZ). The target list is mainly, but not completely, southern stars.Go well!Jeremy
