Globular cluster formation and evolution in the context of cosmological galaxy assembly: open questions

We discuss some of the key open questions regarding the formation and evolution of globular clusters (GCs) during galaxy formation and assembly within a cosmological framework. The current state-of-the-art for both observations and simulations is described, and we briefly mention directions for futu...
