SUMMARY:The WISP survey: overview of recent results for galaxies in th
 e 1<z<2 redshift range\, Astronomy Colloquium\, Claudia Scarlata\, CAL
 TECH
DESCRIPTION:The WFC3 Infrared Spectroscopic Parallel Survey (WISP) is 
 a large ( 750 orbits) HST program using WFC3 slitless IR spectroscopy 
 to detect thousands of galaxies across a wide redshift range 0.3 &lt\;
  z &lt\; 2.3. I will present an overview of recent results on emission
  line galaxies\, including a statistical determination of their dust e
 xtinction properties and the discovery of a new population of extremel
 y strong emission-line dwarf galaxies. I will also discuss the stellar
  population properties of passive galaxies at za^1/41.5 derived from t
 he combination of the WISP IR spectra and broad-band HST optical and S
 pitzer photometry.
