Invited talk The Role of Star Clusters in Star Formation from Local to Galaxy Scales The Role of Star Clusters in Star Formation from Local to Galaxy Scales

Description

Stellar clusters provide powerful probes of galactic structure and evolution, offering precise measurements of key astrophysical properties across a large volume of the Galaxy and covering much of its history. In this talk, I will discuss how advances in the cluster catalogue, driven by larger and higher-quality astronomical surveys and improved analysis methods, have reshaped our understanding of the Galaxy. Finally, I will highlight future research directions to advance galactic science through stellar clusters.
