Direct [OIII]4364-based metallicities show that galaxies with stellar masses 10^6.7-9 solar masses at z~6-8 are 0.3-0.5 dex more metal-poor than local galaxies of the same mass, with slope 0.25 and 0.2 dex scatter.
Discovery of a very metal-poor galaxy overdensity of 17 members near a possible Pop III-enriched absorber at z=5.945, with estimated minimum halo mass of log(M_h,min/M_⊙)=10.68.
JWST absorption spectra of galaxies at z~8-9 show metal-poor gas with high [C/O] suggesting enrichment by Population III supernovae.
New stack-based strong-line calibrations from ~1500 spectra yield mass-metallicity relations at z=1-10 with decreasing metallicity toward higher redshift and no slope change, plus 50 EMPG candidates at 1-4% solar metallicity showing large scatter and opposite sSFR trends.
JWST auroral-line selected galaxies at high redshift show an MZR slope of 0.38 with selection biases favoring high-SFR low-metallicity systems, while stacked non-detections lie closer to the fundamental metallicity relation.
NEFERTITI simulations show that the Milky Way's most metal-poor stars largely come from a handful of accreted massive dwarf galaxies, while reproducing the JWST Hebe galaxy at z~11 as a pure Population III system.
High-redshift HeII emitter observations confirm a >50% PopIII stellar mass fraction and favor top-heavy IMFs for the first stars with total masses 2e4 to 6e5 solar masses.
Existing HeII emission-line diagnostics identify pure Pop III galaxies but fail for hybrid Pop III/Pop II systems, introducing spectral degeneracies that hide residual first stars.
Identification of a strongly lensed ultra-faint galaxy at z≈10 with F200W excess, interpreted via SED modeling as either an extremely metal-poor stellar population or a young high-ionization system with emission lines.
New JWST spectrum of a z=8.3 galaxy with prior ALMA dust detection shows AGN signatures, 0.15 Zsun metallicity, Mdust ~10^6 Msun, Tdust~91 K, and an [OIII] line ratio higher than nebular models allow.
A review of theoretical models for the first stars and observational strategies including JWST searches, near-field studies, and lensing, noting growing candidates and narrowing parameter space.
