SUMMARY:Astroseminar - Rachel Bezanson
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Rachel Bezanson is Associate Professor at the University of\nPi
 ttsburgh. She is an observational astronomer interested in empirical\nstud
 ies of massive galaxies\, both today and in the early Universe. Her\nresea
 rch aims to disentangle and interpret the morphological\,\nstructural\, an
 d dynamical evolution of massive galaxies through cosmic\ntime. She is int
 erested in understanding how and when galaxies form\,\nhow star-forming ga
 laxies turn off - or “quench” - their\nstar-formation\, and the physic
 al processes that drive the evolution of\nearly galaxies into the bimodal 
 and well-behaved galaxy populations\nobserved in the local Universe.
