Check out this new paper with mass profiles measured for galaxies as small as M* ~ 10^8.5. Very excited about this and also about how quickly we'll be able to improve these measurements with more spectra and deeper photometry.

Couldn't be prouder of Kihana Wilson Kihana Wilson for this well-deserved award based on presenting the research she did with my group last summer. Delighted that she's back kipac to continue this work for the next few months -- watch out for what she does next!
