The 6th Zermatt ISM symposium Conditions and Impact of Star Formation - From Lab to Space (2015, September 7-11) continues the series of symposia on the physics and chemistry of the interstellar medium (ISM) which is held on a roughly 5 year cycle since 1988. It is concerned with the detailed conditions and physical processes governing the ISM out of which stars are born and which is structured by star-formation feedback on various scales. The symposium aims to bring together experts in the fields of laboratory astrophysics and chemistry, as well as observational and theoretical astrophysics who study the ISM in the Milky Way, in nearby, and distant, high-redshift galaxies. It will illuminate the progresses made over the past years in the different fields, show their impact on each other, and identify challenges which arise at the interfaces between them. It will give opportunities to summarize the legacy of past observatories such as HERSCHEL, present new striking results obtained with, e.g., ALMA and SOFIA, and focus on the exciting prospects of next generation telescopes and instrumentation to observe the ISM, star formation, and its feedback over various scales and times. In particular ALMA provides the opportunity to study the star- and planet-formation processes in unprecedented detail.
