Talk Title: 
Line Intensity Mapping: Modeling & Analysis in the Precision Era
Event description: 

In this talk I discuss our efforts to increase the precision of modeling and analysis for upcoming line intensity mapping (LIM) science.  I will present our work constructing realistic, multi-line LIM mocks and predicting how they can improve LIM galaxy and cosmology science, in addition to its context for EXCLAIM, an LIM  balloon survey that will map CO and [CII] emission.  In addition, I will discuss using line intensity maps along with other large-scale structure tracers to probe gravity and inflation over extremely large scales.
