Abstract
We describe a next major frontier in studies of galaxy evolution and star formation: linking physical conditions in the cold, star-forming interstellar medium to host galaxy and local environment. The key observations will be cm-, mm-, and submm-wave spectroscopy and spectroscopic imaging. We highlight key paths for progress in the next decade.
