Biography

Tracy M.A. Webb is an astrophysicist specialized in galaxy formation and evolution, conducting significant research within the Trottier Space Institute at McGill University. Her work primarily focuses on observational astronomy, aiming to understand the processes that lead to the formation and growth of galaxies from the Big Bang to the present day. Utilizing the world's telescopes to observe deep space, Webb studies galaxies in their early epochs, collecting data across various wavelengths with a concentration on infrared observations. This approach allows her to sample the dust heated by energetic processes associated with star formation and active galactic nuclei, which are often obscured from conventional view. Through her dedicated research, Webb endeavors to unlock the mysteries of the universe and the dynamic processes that contribute to the evolution of galaxies.
