Exploring the High-Redshift Universe with Current and Future Facilities
Unveiling the connection between star formation and neutral gas reservoirs at z 3.5 with MUSE

The direct study of star formation in Damped Lyman Alpha systems (DLAs), the reservoirs of the majority of neutral gas at high redshift, has previously been "been hampered by observational limitations. The installation of MUSE on the VLT has unlocked an integral field view of these systems, allowing for complete spectroscopic surveys and emission line imaging. I will present an ongoing survey with MUSE of 6 z 3 to 4 DLA sightlines to explore associated star formation. One sightline in particular shows a DLA associated with a giant Lyman Alpha emitting structure (approx 40 kpc) which was missed by previous deep imaging.
