Abstract

To understand whether star formation is solely dependent on the local conditions of the interstellar medium (ISM), or if it is also affected by the large-scale galactic dynamics, we must probe the small physical scales of star-forming clouds as well as the wider galactic context. I present our optical dust extinction technique with which we study the resolved properties of the extragalactic ISM, since it allows us to image the dust/gas of nearby galaxies at cloud-scales (
