    The Life Cycle of Matter in the Magellanic Clouds: Insights from Spitzer and Herschel
    The life cycle of baryonic matter in a galaxy is driven by the exchange of material between the interstellar medium (ISM) and stars, which are the agents of...

    The multiple routes of galaxy transformation across the cosmic epochs
    In the local universe most of the stellar mass is in passive galaxies, where star formation isabsent or at very low levels. Understanding what are the...

    The Nature and Nurture of Bars and Disks
    The effects that environment produce on galaxy disks and how they modify the subsequent formation of bars need to be distinguished to fully understand the...

    The Observed Evolution of the Stellar Mass-Halo Mass Relation for Brightest Central Galaxies
    We quantify evolution in the cluster-scale stellar mass-halo mass (SMHM) relation's parameters using 2323 clusters and brightest central galaxies (BCGs) over...

    The role of massive black hole recoil in galaxy evolution
    The coalescence of a massive black hole (MBH) binary leads to the gravitational-wave recoil of the system and its ejection from the galaxy core. We have carried...

    The role of metals from molecular clouds to galactic discs
    From the time the first stars formed to the present-day, metals have witnessed the assembly of structure in the Universe in great detail. Although metals only...
