DESCRIPTION:The relationship between star formation and AGN is a crucial f
 eature of all theories of galaxy formation but the connection between the 
 two has been the subject of much controversy. We will present results on t
 he star formation properties of a sample of 320 objects chosen from a rela
 tively unbiased low redshift survey of AGN in the very hard x-ray band. Th
 e star formation indicators are obtained from broad band IR photometry and
  imaging with Herschel\, WISE and eVLA data. We find that the host galaxie
 s of moderate luminosity AGN are: frequently (60% of the\ntime) below the 
 main sequence of star formation occupied by normal star forming galaxies\,
  that the AGN component of the far IR luminosity is strongly correlated wi
 th the hard x-ray luminosity\, that mergers are much more common amongst t
 hose objects which lie on or above the main sequence\, that the star forma
 tion rate is uncorrelated with AGN luminosity and that there appears to be
  a morphological difference in the radio emission between galaxies on and 
 below the main sequence.\n
