The age of the universe goes back to the Big Bang. The Bang resulted in a release of energy in the form of radiation. Due to the expansion of the Universe since that time the original radiation has been red-shifted to the microwave range. The background microwave radiation is the best tool for studying the age of the universe.

What type of stars do astronomers use to study the age of the universe?
They don't (a whole lot) study stars for that purpose, as a typical star's life is much less than the life of the universe. They study galaxies. The oldest appearing galaxies also tend to be those farthest away, as measured by red shift. Farthest away of all are the quasars, which are still not fully understood.
When was the formation of the universe?
The Universe has an age estimated to be about 13.8 billion years.

Why do scientist study distant galaxies to learn about early galaxy's?
If you look at a distant galaxy, the light from the galaxy has travelled for perhaps a hundred million years, a billion years, or up to an age close to the age of the Universe (13 billion years or so), depending on the galaxy's distance. Thus, the light you see shows you how the Universe was billions of years ago.
