From the production of the first dust grains to the growth of supermassive black holes, paradigms of galaxy evolution in the z>1 cosmos that were once thought fixed are now contested.  Our goal is to reconceptualize our long held assumptions in light of new observations and theory.  As galaxy evolution is revitalized, so too is the culture of astronomy through ways of creating, collaborating, and sharing knowledge.  

.The choir collaboration places equal emphasis. on challenging scientific paradigms and critically inspecting and bettering our ways of doing science.  We are dedicated to pursuing our science ethically, including work on inclusion, advocacy,  justice, climate change, and science communication.
