SUMMARY:Dwarf Galaxies and Their Role as Building Blocks. 
DESCRIPTION:Dwarf Galaxies and Their Role as Building Blocks. \nDr. Eva Gre
 bel\n\nDwarf galaxies are the most common type of galaxy in the Universe  
 andinclude the most dark-matter-dominated objects known.  They  offerintri
 guing insights into evolutionary processes at low halo masses  and low met
 allicities.  Moreover, as survivors of a once much more  numerous populati
 on of building blocks of larger galaxies, they are key  to understanding v
 ery early star formation processes.  The Local Group  and particularly the
  Milky Way's dwarf galaxy entourage offer us the  unique possibility to co
 mpare in detail dwarf and Galactic populations.  This is an important step
  towards quantifying the magnitude and time  scales of dwarf contributions
  to the build-up of the Milky Way and  allows us to test predictions of co
 smological theories and hierarchical  structure formation.
