Galaxy formation and cosmology: challenges for the new millennium

Richard Ellis (IoA, Cambridge)

Considerable progress has been made in the past decade in constraining the fundamental parameters which govern the form and expansion history of the Universe (although there have been some surprises!) as well as in locating and studying the evolving properties of galaxies at intermediate and high redshift. I will take stock of this progress and review our physical understanding of what has being observed in the context of various upcoming facilities.
