Areas of Expertise
- Galaxy Formation and Evolution
- Observational Cosmology
Her research interests are in observational astronomy and understanding how the most massive galaxies in our Universe form and evolve over time. In particular, she is focused on determining what physical mechanism is responsible for the cessation of star formation in these galaxies, using clues from their morphology as revealed by high-resolution imaging at optical and near-infrared wavelengths.
Research Interests
- CANDELS: Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey
- How do the most massive galaxies form, what processes cause them to stop forming stars, and when do they reach their final morphological state?
- Earlier work on Massive Quiescent Disks
- Next Generation Adaptive Optics for the Keck Observatory
