Dwarf galaxies are important tools for understanding structure formation and galaxy
evolution across cosmic time. These low-mass systems allow us to gain a detailed understanding
of stellar, chemical, and dynamical properties in the nearby universe; they also provide
a unique window into the complex physics of the early universe. The Proceedings of
IAU Symposium 344 present our current understanding of dwarf galaxies, with sections
dedicated to: Local Group dwarf galaxies; the interstellar medium and star formation
in dwarfs; metallicity, massive stars, and chemical evolution; the dwarf galaxy-environment
connection; low-mass galaxies at high redshift; and dwarfs as cosmological probes.
Broad overviews from leaders in the field, detailed presentation of cutting-edge results,
and short summaries of a wide range of work are included for each of these topics,
suitable for both experts and newcomers to the field
