Despite many decades of progress in understanding the evolution of star formation and stellar populations in galaxies, we have still fundamental questions that have remained unanswered. These include: how do stars cluster in galaxies, and how do these structures evolve in time? ... How are popular star formation rate indicators affected by the recent star formation history of a galaxy? ... The answers to these questions inform our theories for the evolution of galaxies through cosmic times. ...
