At IAS, Gawiser will measure the star formation histories and physical properties of galaxies in the early universe discovered by NASA's JWST. He will determine the relationship between galaxies and dark matter halos using a non-parametric method. These efforts will improve our understanding of galaxy formation and cosmic acceleration.
