Abstract

The early evolutionary stages of high-mass star formation have been subject to intense research for more than a decade now. Because several comprehensive reviews exist, here I focus on a few results obtained in the last two years. Specific questions to be addressed are: What can we learn about the initial conditions of high-mass star formation from recent Herschel observations? How important are magnetic fields for high-mass star-forming clumps and cores? Do we find genuine massive accretion disks? Do high-mass stars form first, last or simultaneously with the low-mass stars during cluster formation?
