The AKARI Deep Field South: Pushing to High Redshift
  The AKARI Deep Field South (ADF-S) is a large extragalactic survey field that
is covered by multiple instruments, from optical to far-IR and radio. I
summarise recent results in this and related fields prompted by the release of
the Herschel far-IR/submm images, including studies of cold dust in nearby
galaxies, the identification of strongly lensed distant galaxies, and the use
of colour selection to find candidate very high redshift sources. I conclude
that the potential for significant new results from the ADF-S is very great.
The addition of new wavelength bands in the future, eg. from Euclid, SKA, ALMA
and elsewhere, will boost the importance of this field still further.
