*** Title: The Wolfe Disk: ALMA Discoveries of Distant, HI-selected Galaxies [#ff566700]

Abstract: I will review our series of successful programs to dissect
the interstellar medium of distant, star-forming galaxies with the
Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA).  In particular, I will discuss
surveys of the set of HI-selected galaxies known as the damped
Lya systems (DLAs).  We resolve, in part, a decades old struggle to
identify the galactic counterparts of these DLAs and thereby place
them firmly in the modern picture of galaxy formation.  I will also highlight
high spectral and spatial resolution observations of the Wolfe Disk,
a z~4 galaxy with a Milky Way-like rotation curve.
