As part of the Decadal Survey on Astronomy and Astrophysics (Astro2020), the Panel on Galaxies will identify and articulate the scientific themes that will define the frontier in galaxy research in the 2022-2032 decade. Its scope will include observations, theory, and simulations of galaxy formation and evolution, galactic structure and dynamics, galaxy clusters, stellar populations in galaxies, the intergalactic medium, chemical evolution of galaxies, gravitational lensing as applied to galaxy structure, demographics of supermassive black holes, co-evolution of galaxies and supermassive black holes, relevant aspects of Milky Way science, and related phenomena associated with active galactic nuclei.
