The
Southern California Center for Galaxy Evolution (CGE) and the University of
California High-Performance AstroComputing Center (HiPACC) are bringing together
theorists and observers for a three-day conference on the Near-Field
Deep-Field Connection. Topics to be covered
include (1) local relics of reionization, (2) connections
between first stars and local metallicity, (3) the
evidence for and impact
of IMF variation, (4) the CGM of the Milky Way and beyond, (5) dwarf
galaxies at high and low z, and (6) star-formation
histories near and far.
