In this talk, U-M Astronomy Ph.D. student Katya Gozman will explore how astronomers can learn about the formation and evolution of galaxies. Gozman will talk about galaxy mergers and how we can find evidence of past mergers in the outskirts of nearby galaxies. She will also present the results from a research project she worked on with Prof. Eric Bell in her first two years of UMich’s Astronomy PhD program.

The talk will be followed by tours of the Observatory and observing with the historic Fitz telescope, if weather permits.
