European
Network: The Formation and Evolution of Galaxies - Our goal is to
understand how galaxies formed and how the Universe has evolved over the
last 90 percent of its history. The program will study distant galaxies at
optical, infrared, and radio frequencies. In addition it will be coupled to
theoretical work on protogalactic collapse, on galaxy evolution, and on the
interaction of galaxies with their environment.
