Title: NIRCam: Your Next Near-Infrared Camera in Space

Abstract:
NIRCam is a very flexible imager that includes features that will enable transit spectroscopy as well as converting NIRCam into the facility wavefront sensor. The capabilities of NIRCam will be presented in the context of examples drawn from the NIRCam team's guaranteed time observing program. This program ranges from deep surveys searching for the first galaxies to studies of KBOs in the outer solar system, and uses essentially all of the NIRCam observing modes.

Title: Gas Flows at Various Astronomical Scales

Abstract:
I will discuss gas flows onto dark matter halos of various sizes and include results from observations and simulations. These include gas flows for local galaxy clusters, the dwarf spiral galaxy M33, and our Milky Way. The gas transitions during the flows and is key to understanding ongoing star formation.
