The programme of the conference covered the following topics:

  1. 1.Evolving environments: clusters, groups, density field, clustering, dark matter environment, and how they depend globally on redshift)

  2. 2.Central galaxies: links between accretion, bulge growth, star formation & AGN feedback, including BCGs.

  3. 3.Multiphase gas and environment: observations and simulations of gas budget vs halo mass, hot gas (detection, cooling, stripping), warm gas (absorption studies, abundance), cold gas (detection of flows, abundance).

  4. 4.Satellite galaxies: direct evidence of interaction with environment, physical mechanisms, simulations, empirical trends.

  5. 5.Tight interactions and no interactions: merging, close pairs, compact groups, fossils/isolated galaxies, etc.


The list of invited speakers included: Elena D'Onghia (Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison), Giuseppe Gavazzi (Milano Bicocca Univ.), Meghan Gray (Univ. of Nottingham), Katarina Kovac (ETH Zurich), Thorsten Naab (MPA Garching), Anna Pasquali (Univ. Heidelberg), Dave Patton (Trent University), Amélie Saintonge (UCL), Debora Sijacki (Univ. of Cambridge), Christy Tremonti (Univ. of Wisconsin-Madison)
