DAGAL: Detailed Anatomy of Galaxies

Abstract

The current IAU Symposium is closely connected to the EU-funded network DAGAL (Detailed Anatomy of Galaxies), with the final annual network meeting of DAGAL being at the core of this international symposium. In this short paper, we give an overview of DAGAL, its training activities, and some of the scientific advances that have been made under its umbrella.Comment: Proceedings of IAU Symposium 321, "Formation and evolution of galaxy outskirts", Eds.
