Title: The early growth of galaxies and how it is shaped by black hole feedback
Abstract: Luminous quasars are ideal targets to investigate the early growth phases of supermassive black-holes and to understand when and how BH feedback started influencing the growth of the host-galaxies. I will discuss the cosmic evolution of BH-driven outflows in luminous quasars back to the epoch of Reionization (z~7), using state-of-the-arte near-infrared and millimeter observations. I will discuss how these outflows globally affect the morphology, gas kinematics and physical conditions of the interstellar medium in the quasar hosts, e.g. by reducing the cold gas content, by regulating the SFR in the quasar host and by increasing the molecular gas excitation.
