Description
The LSST consortium is made of several science collaborations, including DESC for which the French community is particularly active. However a number of French researchers especially from INSU also have an important contribution in the Galaxies Science Collaboration. I will review these activities, with an emphasis on the LSB science, and sky background subtraction which is crucial to preserve the low surface brightness information in the images.
