SUMMARY:Star Formation\, etc\, Special Noon Talk  3/4/19\, Nia Imara\,
  Harvard CfA
DESCRIPTION:Stars are of fundamental importance to astronomy\, and how
  they form and shape their environments influence everything from exop
 lanet studies to cosmology.  In this talk\, I will discuss recent ALMA
  observations of dwarf galaxies—excellent astrophysical laboratories
  for exploring star formation in the early Universe—and I will consi
 der some future prospects for advancing our knowledge in this exciting
  field.  As a bonus\, I will present a novel idea for detecting planet
 s bound to x-ray binaries\, proposing that the x-ray light curves of s
 uch systems be inspected for signatures of transiting planets.
