Scientific paper

Radio astronomy, broadly interpreted, has made important contributions to the study of galaxy formation and evolution. Maps of the cosmic microwave background provide information on the seeds of large-scale structure, in addition to refined values of the cosmological parameters. Examples of contributions from more conventional radio astronomy include:-The use of radio observations to track star formation rates since they are not affected by dust obscuration as optical/UV observations are, and the use of molecular line observations to make purely ``radio'' redshift determinations.
