Abstract
Infrared observations expose parts of the Universe that optical surveys miss and test prevailing theories of galaxy formation. This seminar reviews questions about baryon concentrations, galaxy lifetimes, bimodality and downsizing, and the contribution of optically hidden galaxies, in the context of new images from JWST.
