DESCRIPTION:The Star-Forming Main Sequence describes how the s
 tellar mass and star formation rate of galaxies ar
 e observed to positively correlate. It is used fre
 quently for defining different galaxy populations 
 and predicting quantities. But is it a fundamental
  relationship? In this talk I will present results
  investigating the scaling relations that exist be
 tween star formation rate\, stellar mass and molec
 ular gas mass on both local (resolved) scales and 
 global (galaxy wide) scales for galaxies both in t
 he local universe and at high redshift. I use a co
 mbination of partial correlation coefficients and 
 random forest regression to uncover which scaling 
 relations are intrinsic\, and those that are inste
 ad indirect by-products of other more fundamental 
 relationships.
