Feeding the Giants: ELTs in the era of Surveys

Ischia (Napoli), Italy, 29 August - 02 September 2011

This workshop was aimed at exploring the synergies between the work of existing and forthcoming survey facilities and the Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs), i.e. the E-ELT, the GMT and the TMT.  It reviewed the projects in these two areas and addressed the developments that these will bring to a wide range of science areas, including exo-planets, star formation, stellar populations, galaxy formation/evolution and cosmology.
