This was an invited talk for the Radio Millimeter Submillimeter group during my research visit. I presented on my PhD project within a larger context and a summary of ongoing work.

Location: room M-340 in 160 Concord Avenue, Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge, USA

Title: Modelling the emission from the inhomogeneous ISM: a simulation of fractal PDRs

Abstract: The interstellar medium has a complex structure, and this is complicated even further by turbulent motions in dynamic environments. This leads to difficulty when trying to interpret ISM observations, particularly for observations containing many different environments. In my talk I will give an overview of some efforts in interpreting observations of the inhomogeneous ISM, how this has affected the way we model it, and my efforts in creating synthetic observations of the inhomogeneous ISM.
