Infrared studies of the massive stellar population at the Galactic Center and the inner disk

We present results from our ongoing infrared spectroscopic studies of the massive stellar content at the Center of the Milky Way (GC) and across the obscured Galactic disk. Together with the full characterization of these clusters, we seek to obtain a present day metallicity 2-D map of the inner Galaxy and characterize the influence on the bar in the chemical evolution. We will also constrain the clusters IMFs, infer the presence of possible top-heavy recent star formation histories and test massive star formation channels: clusters vs isolation.
