One of the first students of our Ph.D. program, Dejene Zewdie, has led a investigation on the properties of massive galaxies in the local Universe. This work started during his Master’s studies, in Ethiopia, and continued during 2019 at UDP has now been recently accepted for publication in the prestigious scientific journal Monthly Notices for the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS). The publication, entitled “AGN and Star-Formation Properties of Inside-out Assembled Galaxy Candidates at z less than 0.1”, was done in collaboration with Prof. Roberto J. Assef and Prof. Manuel Aravena at UDP and was recently posted in arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.03800. 

Congrats to Dejene for this fantastic job!
