  The energetic feedback from supermassive black holes can influence star
formation at the centres of galaxies. Observational evidence for active
galactic nucleus (AGN) impact on star formation can be searched for in galaxies
by combining ultraviolet imaging and optical integral field unit data. The
ultraviolet flux directly traces recent star formation, and the integral field
unit data can reveal dust attenuation, gas ionisation mechanisms, and gas
kinematics from the central regions of the galaxy disk. A pilot study on NGC
3982 shows star formation suppression in the central regions of the galaxy,
likely due to negative AGN feedback, and enhanced star formation in the outer
regions. The case of NGC 3982 could be observational evidence of AGN feedback
operating in a Seyfert galaxy.
