Overview

**Open to ALL - BIPOC & multiracial focused**

What makes a galaxy dead, and how do they die in the first place? Join us as we learn about the latest results on massive, dead galaxies in the early cosmos, and why they are so mind-boggling - even for the experts.

At the end of the talk, we'll take a journey back to Earth to learn about how adjusting our concepts of "good mentorship" can better help underrepresented women and gender minorities thrive in STEM space.
