Aim of the conference is to review the state of our understanding of galaxy evolution with an emphasis on the role of neutral hydrogen and the use of neutral hydrogen observations to probe the relevant physical processes. In addition it will focus on the particular advantage of blind surveys for unraveling the details of the role of neutral, ionised and molecular gas in galaxy evolution and the importance and relevance of gas accretion and removal processes. This will include discussing the various observational and analysis methods that are required to fully explore the data forthcoming from large surveys.
