JWST measurements of pitch angles in 593 spiral galaxies to z=3.5 show no overall redshift evolution but reveal correlations with mass and sSFR only below z=1.25, implying a transition from locally driven to globally regulated spiral arms.

75% of massive compact quiescent galaxies at z~0 require three-component photometric models (bulge + disk + envelope), versus only 7% of mass-matched control quiescent galaxies.
A Hubble-like sequence of galaxy morphologies exists by redshift 4, with low-mass galaxies as persistent star-forming disks and massive galaxies following either stable disk or rapid compaction-quenching paths.
Abundance analysis of 84 type-2 AGNs finds oversolar He and subsolar O at z>2.8, including one object at z=6.26 with record He abundance of 12+log(He/H)=11.64, plus marginal trends of declining He/H and rising O/H toward z=0.
A galaxy at z=3.16 has a bar with older stars making up 30% of its mass but only 8% of its recent star formation, supporting inside-out galaxy formation and possible early bar quenching.
Barred galaxies transition from actively star-forming at z~1-2 to quiescent at z~0, with the fraction of quiescent galaxies hosting bars increasing steeply over cosmic time.
The SFR-M_* relation develops a high-mass decline at low redshifts, driven mainly by morphological quenching from internal structure rather than environmental effects on star-forming galaxies.
Neo, a cGAN, super-resolves HSC images to HST-like quality and improves galaxy morphological parameter accuracy by factors of 2-10.

The Hubble sequence in JWST CEERS from unbiased galaxy morphologies
